📋 About This Mod
8/3/2015: Now Updated to work with Latest Patch.
Introduction: Changes include removing most freckles on the cheeks, replace with straighter and thicker eyebrows, redness of eyes moved under the eye, and teeny-tiny blue recoloring. Even though these are small alterations, it's my first mod. Comparing Solas' original look, this one makes him look 'softer', gentle. This is subjective.
Important:
Backup your saves!!! In case the patch does not work. Use DAI Mod Manager. Link ***If using a non-english game, download the .dds files and use the experimental DAI Modding Tool as well as its prerequirements. Once you have it set up by following the link's instructions, the location of the data>da3>actors>baseheads>solas>textures.
1. Download the DAI Mod Manager. 2. Set Dragon age Path to where your game is. 3. Create a mod folder (anywhere) to place all of your mods. 4. Path the program to the mod folder and check or uncheck any mods you want on the left as well as the Official Patch. Create/select a new folder named "merged" to place the merge patch in. 5. Click Merge and wait until it's done. 6. Run the game.
