📋 About This Mod

No Combat Grimace
For frosty or dai mod manager. Removes the grimace characters make after delivering an attack. Works on all races and genders. Multiple options available!

Q1: What do the DAIMM and FROSTY in the file names mean?

A1: DAIMM = meant for dai mod manager, FROSTY = meant for frosty mod manager.

Q2: Do I need to use both the DAIMM and FROSTY versions at the same time?

A2: No, there's no reason to do that.

Q3: What is the difference between the regular version, idle eyebrows versions, and quirked brow version?

A3: The regular version will have angry, furrowed eyebrows directly after delivering an attack.

The idle eyebrows version will also have angry, furrowed eyebrows directly after delivering an attack, if you use no other mods

with it, but if you use a mod that replaces the idle expression, then it will use the same emotion eyebrows from that mod.

So e.g if you used the neutral expression - no frown while idle mod at the same time as the idle eyebrows version, then  characters would no longer have furrowed brows directly after dealing a strike, and would instead have neutral brows after

dealing one.

Whereas if you were to use the neutral expression mod with the regular version, the eyebrows would be furrowed directly after            delivering a strike, regardless.

The quirked brow version has one eyebrow up, and one eyebrow down. You will need the neutral expression mod linked above for this

version to work, otherwise the eyebrows will just both be angry instead of one quirked up.

Q4:  Do I need to use the regular version, idle brows version, and quirked brow version all at the same time?

A4:   No, use one of the options at once.

Q5: Will this affect facial expressions outside of combat?

Q6: Will this work in cutscenes too?

A6: No, this mod is for facial expressions made outside of cutscenes.

Q7: Will this work on other characters besides just the inquisitor?

Q8: Will this work on all races and genders?

Q9: My inquisitor looks angry, even outside of combat. Is this mod the cause?

A9:  No, that's what the inquisitor's face looks like outside of cutscenes by default, even without mods.

Q10: Is this mod compatible with the neutral expression - no frown while idle mod?

A10:  Yes, all the versions of the mod are compatible with this.

Q11: Why did you make this mod?

A11: Because characters do cool poses when attacking which are nice for screenshots, but sometimes I want to us
