📋 About This Mod

Adds ten new skin colours that work against DA:O's lighting.

EDIT: Check out the DA:2 version as well!

We are all familiar with the struggle of skin tones looking 3x lighter in-game compared to what they look like in the character creator. While these tones do appear somewhat lighter still, the saturation-levels of the undertones limit this to a stronger degree. Meaning you should notice a difference in how the game's lighting affects your character's race.

"Why should I download this mod as opposed to all the other ones?"

What do you mean 'as opposed?' Download as many as you want. (Meaning this mod is completely stand-alone and shouldn't change any other skin-mods out there, or the vanilla ones.)

"Why didn't you include any white skins?"

Because there is not a lack of white skin to begin with. But if you want more white skin I suggest PineappleTree's Vibrant Colours.

"Why didn't you include more dark skins?"

Unfortunately br2 is the darkest I was able to go without the skin becoming too blotchy. And even still it is noticeable. I have tried everything I can think of to fix this, so if anyone knows the cause of it and how to bypass it please let me know.

"Why br_?"

IDK, it's the first two letters of my last name. //Shrug

"Something isn't working!"

First, double-check the instructions. Then leave a comment here or message me on Tumblr and I will absolutely get back to you.

(Instructions also provided in .zip)

Add the unzipped folder to the following file path:

<resource name="t1_skn_br7"></resource>

<resource name="t1_skn_br8"></resource>

<resource name="t1_skn_br9"></resource>

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE AN EXISTING CHARGENMORPHCFG FILE:

Add the one supplied in the zip to the following file path:

C:\Users\NAME\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override

Remove the file folder, and remove the above lines from your chargenmorphcfg.

I would very much appreciate any advise
