Young Party in the World of Ruin and Insomnia

YOUNG PARTY IN THE WORLD OF RUIN AND INSOMNIA

This mod will replace the older party heads in chapters 14 and 15 with the younger versions.

Made with the Steam version of the game and 4k textures installed.

THINGS TO NOTE:

- Noctis will probably not have pink eyes during summoning.

- Gladio will not have the extra scars.

- Ignis will always have at least his left eye closed.

- Ignis's attires from his DLC (Casual and Unkempt Crownsguard) will not have the drenched and wild hair respectively but will always depend on whichever replacement you've installed (default young hair, the drenched, or the wild hair). In other words, they will both look the same.

- This mod will not affect any of the pre-rendered scenes and (post-)credit scenes, which are also pre-rendered or using a different Noctis model.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE:

As I have discovered, this mod may conflict with other replacement mods installed in the folders, from which I have taken the models with the boys' younger heads (eg Older Noctis/Ignis/Prompto/Gladio, Ignis's Drenched or Wild Hair, etc). As a result, the game will crash at title screen or when you try to load a save file, in which the boys are supposed to be older (chapters 14 and 15). To solve this, simply restore the original files with the younger models that you had overwritten before while you are using this mod.

INSTALLATION:

- Copy the files you wish to replace and overwrite them in their respective folders.

- Folders are as follows: nh00 for Noctis, nh01 for Gladio, nh02 for Prompto, and nh03 for Ignis.

- All of the model_100 folders contain files that replace the boys' heads for most default and all modded outfits.

- Noctis's entry folder replaces his head for all his assassin attires.

- Noctis's model_200 folder replaces his head for when he wakes up in the Angelgard prison (super shaggy, hobo hair).

- Prompto's entry folder replaces his head for his tundra attire.

- For Ignis, I made three versions - default young hair, the drenched, and the wild hair. Choose and install only one at a time.

UNINSTALLING:

Replace the overwritten files with the original files.

NEEDLESS TO SAY, BACK UP YOUR FILES BEFORE USING THESE REPLACEMENTS.

I also included my original files as 'autoexternalorig.earc' or 'nhXX_baseorig.earc' in each folder.
