📋 About This Mod
I... have issues with color, specifically black hair colors in games.. I could never find a black hair tint that I liked, and it bothered me that the black hair tint ingame looks brown to me. So I bit the bullet, did some kicking around in the toolset, and made my own. This replaces the default black hair tint with one that is a more cool (bluer) tone, which is more to my liking. Since someone asked for it, I thought I might as well upload it for anyone else who might like it. A port of my DA1 mod! A bit trickier, but I have it working. The problem was less pronounced here, but still bugged me. Install: Pick EITHER Version 1 OR Version 2. Do not use both. Extract the file BlackHairIsBlack.erf from either V1 or V2 to: My Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age 2\\packages\\core\\override Uninstall: Delete the file BlackHairIsBlack.erf Change log: 2. 0 - Release for DA2 2. 1 - Added V2, fixed stubble for V1 Hair tint modding: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/307/index/6422183/2#6530863 This post has my findings on editing custom DA1 hair tints for DA2, using GFF editor.
