📋 About This Mod
Description
Did you spend all that time lovingly crafting the most handsome custom male Ryder, hand-selecting the perfect custom complexion for him on the Nexus, and tweaking him to perfection, only for him to smile, raise his eyebrows, or grimace and transform from a 22 year old into a 55 year old? Me, too. That's why I made this mod.
Removes the wrinkles that occur with custom male Ryders whenever they smile, frown, or otherwise emote. Essentially unlinks the wrinkle textures from the complexion.
All complexions have been done. I recommend only using the complexion that your Ryder is using, because it will affect NPCs using the complexions, as well. This isn't ultimately a huge deal, and you can use them all without issues.
Compatibility
This IS compatible with complexion mods! In fact, my male Ryder in the image is pictured with Plastic Faces - dark face. Also pictured is head preset 3 (Mike), with Margerad's Male Complexion Overhaul.
Installation
Use Frosty Mod Manager.
Bugs?
This is very difficult to test, because it requires using each complexion individually, then getting Ryder into a conversation where he emotes strongly enough to cause wrinkles. If you notice an issue or think one isn't working, please let me know.
Wrinkles B Gone removes the wrinkles that appear with facial expressions on custom male Ryders in Mass Effect: Andromeda. It's a simple cosmetic fix that works with any custom complexion mod, making it a must-have for players who want a smoother look for their Ryder.
