If you are experiencing any issues with the mod, please read the FAQ first before posting a bug report, or posting in the discussions page!

Note 5/30: I'm currently on hiatus from Bannerlord. Feel free to fork the repository and make a pull request. If you intend to upload your update separately, make sure to obtain permissions first.

DESCRIPTION

Players may now adjust their body weight, muscles tones, and age in a lightweight plugin. There is also additional sliders for even more customization options. Safe to install and uninstall with Vortex or a mod manager of your choosing, and will not break your saves.

Enabled "Debug Values" in character customization:

  • []Age[/]

    []Muscle (Build)[/]

    []Weight[/]

Other features:

  • []Full body sliders (Additional Sliders addon; use at own risk)[/]

    []Rename NPC Wanderer and Noble names[/]

    []Override native calls to change the players appearance automatically[/]

    []Edit troop body properties[/]

    []Edit troop hair, beard, and tattoo "tags" (Advanced feature! Use wisely.)[/]

Companion and NPC support! Open the Encyclopedia with N while on the campaign map, navigate to Heroes (or Troops, since v1. 5. 0), take a pick, and at the top of the page, is an Edit Appearance button. Click on that to open FaceGen with any NPC you wish.

QUICK INSTALLATION

  • []Download Mod Configuration Menu and its dependencies (as of writing, Harmony, ButterLib, and UIExtenderEx).[/]

    []Download Detailed Character Creation.[/]

    []If you don't use Vortex, extract all mods to Bannerlord's Modules folder. If you do, just install and enable them.[/]

    []Launch the game. Move Harmony to the very top, and ButterLib and UIExtenderEx right after them.[/]

    []MCM and all of its submodules should follow right after them.[/]

    []Move DCC after every single base game modules.[/]

    []Actually start the game. And you are done!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

This section is in the process of being redone as it's somewhat outdated.

For known issues, see here.

Q. How can I use my own skin files?

A. If total replacement of the default 'human' race, load before Native. If a new race addition or XSLT-based, load anywhere. DCC uses the XSLT method since 1. 4. 0. 10/11.

Q. Does this mod allow heroes to age?

A. Characters will age normally. Please be aware the game does not like the player being under 18 years old. There are multiple issues that will occur if you opt to play a baby-->teen. I will not provide support for it at this time, so do so at your own risk.

Q. How do I change game settings?

A. See here for details.

Q. How do I change my appearance in a existing game?!

A. You can open FaceGen by pressing V on the main campaign map. Alternatively, you can modify any noble or wanderer appearance in the encyclopedia page, under Heroes.

Q. What are the sliders and do I need them?

A. The sliders are optional and add extra customization to your character for making your characters more unique. The sliders may cause NPCs to be slightly deformed than they were normally in the default base game, but utilizing the appearance change option you can make them however you like. Note: since v1. 2. 4. 0 the sliders can be installed as an option in the FOMOD installer that comes with the update.

Q. Is this mod safe to uninstall, and will it corrupt my saves?

A. This mod is super lightweight and will not have any impact negatively on your save files. Every parameter modified is already being saved into the base game, you just never had the option to actually adjust them befo
