📋 About This Mod
ORIGINAL README:
**************************************************************
The Elder Scrolls III
Better Heads
version 2. 0
based on the work of Gorg & Arathrax (aka DarkSharp)
reorganized by Motoki
*********************************************************************************
*********************************************************************************
This is a re-release of the mod formerly known as Faces of Vvardenfell. That mod was pulled do to issues regarding certain faces inadvertantly being changed and overwritten. The mod has been reorganized so nearly everything has been renamed. The only files that may overwrite now are ear files made by Gorg and a few Argonian hair meshes by Silaria and this is by design. Gorg intended the updated ear files to act as an invisible patch to his earlier hairpacks. What it does is replace the ears on those packs with updated versions where the colors have been made more uniform and also are better matched to these heads and Better Bodies. Nothing else will be overwritten. Note that if you install any of Gorg's hairpacks after installing this mod you will not want to overwrite those files as it will change the ears back to the old textures and they may not match the heads or bodies. The Argonian hair meshes by Silaria included are exactly the same as they are in her mod, so you can overwrite them or not, it doesn't make a difference.
Some other changes have been made such as re-encoding some of the dds files for better compression, changing around which faces were replaced in a couple of instances to have less old people, adding back in a face that was not used, another was created where there was a duplicate head used twice, a couple of new hairs were added, and a some minor issues with the alignments of eyes and noses on a few faces were adjusted.
