📋 About This Mod
Description: This was made to give Sten more consistency with his various appearances, and uses all of them as inspiration. The intent was to give him a unique look that closer matched Those Who Speak, Heroes of Dragon Age, and Sacred Ashes; and still worked with the Qunari update. The DA2 Qunari head was used as a base and then remodeled using Blender; that being said this was as good as I could get it. :)
Required Mod: Qunari Update by tmp7704 http://social.bioware.com/project/4592/
Install: Extract the folder "StenofBeresaad" and drop into: MyDocuments\BioWare\DragonAge\packages\core\override
Recommended Mod: Kossith Add-On by makara5656 http://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/3640/?
Known Issues: Low level of detail (lod 2) meshes aren't adjusted to match the changes to overall body shape. Since lod 2 meshes are used for distant characters, the effect shouldn't be very noticeable in regular circumstances. Some helmets may result in clipping. Mage hoods will not display.
