📋 About This Mod
This mod provides an overhaul of 85 NPCs within the Haafingar Hold.
Some NPCs aren't yet pictured, but all NPCs are covered aside from children, radiant NPCs and Named Radiant NPCs.
Hair Physics are available as a beta option. Basically just testing this out and seeing how it goes - some NPCs might get adjusted in future to fit hairs better, or to include some hair pack assets so that requirements on multiple packs aren't needed.
USSEP and AI overhaul are officially supported for the base version AND the hair physics version.
(These will be rolled out for my other mods soon).
REQUIREMENTS FOR BASE VERSION (see tab for links)
-
[]High Poly Head - please ensure you select "BSA + Loose Files" in the High Poly Head installer!

The hair physics patch is a beta mash-up I made for my game to see how it performed. I did begin to create some others but I lost my progress to an external drive corruption, so I'm back to square one on these. If anyone wants to create patches for this mod, permissions are open as long as the original download is required.
INSTALLATION
-
[]Check the requirements tab carefully and get the corresponding mods. If you want the hair physics patch, get the hair physics mods too.
[]Ensure that High Poly Head is configured correctly. The High Poly Head FOMOD option "BSA + Loose files" MUST be selected, or this mod will not load correctly.
[]Download the Main mod file. Choose install options which correlate to your needs.
[]If you plan on using an existing save, hats with hair or physics wigs may not appear. A save cleaner may fix this. Or select the NPC with console and write "reset inventory".
[]Load order should be (from highest to lowest): Requirements > Optional Requirements > Mod > Patches. Ensure that there are not other mods which alter NPCs - including stats and inventory. These will need to be loaded first, or patched.
- Play!
IMPORTANT REMINDER: BACK UP YOUR SAVE:
-
[]Check the requirements tab carefully and get the corresponding mods. If you want the hair physics patch, get the hair physics mods too.
