📋 About This Mod

TL;DR: To better fit with DA2, most of the textures have been made smoother with less small details, some colour tweaks, a little bit of shading baked back into the texture and removed some scars (Cullen's lip scar in particular). This is obviously less realistic, so if you're looking for realistic textures, I recommend sticking with the original textures!

I really liked IceBuckets' Inquisition head mesh ports, because now the characters in DA2 can finally look as awesome as they did in Inquisition. My only complaint was that the details were a bit too much for DA2's art style and there were a few colour palette issues here and there. So I made a few minor tweaks to the textures myself! After showing the screenshots, a few folks were interested in the mod as well, so I decided to share it on the Nexus.

This is retexture doesn't include Samson and I have no intention of creating a texture tweak for him, sorry!

REQUIREMENTS:

You need IceBuckets' Inquisition Mesh mods for Alistair, Cassandra, Cullen, Flemeth, Isabela & Varric!

INSTALLATION:

  • []Download the file

    []Create a folder in your override folder (located at <user>/Documents/Bioware/Dragon Age II/packages/core) that is alphabetically below the Inquisiton Mesh mods (adding a z at the start of the folder's name usually does the job).

    []Extract the .erf package into that folder.

    []Done!
