📋 About This Mod
It's a simple mod, really.
At the time HD Project 1. 1 got released, re4_tweaks hasn't fixed facial morph problem that got broken starting from Steam UHD version, which full release of HD Project ended up not having face animations.
This mod does exactly that, it restores the missing facial animations from older ports (before UHD) into Leon's gameplay model on HD Project mod.
Works on all Leon's outfit.
I might update this mod to include more characters if they actually have facial morph, but for now, this is for Leon only (and that might be the case as I don't think there are other characters who have them)
USE LATEST VERSION OF RE4 HD Project and re4_tweaks!
This patch restores Leon's facial animations in the HD Project, bringing his expressions back to life. It's for players using the HD Project who noticed Leon's face felt static. With 49 endorsements and recent updates, it's a small but appreciated stability fix.
