📋 About This Mod

Burned Astrid's vanilla facegen has the default hair (hairstyle 5) during the quest "Death Incarnate". This mods fixes it.

Two main versions generated with:

One with High Poly Head, Expressive Facegen Morphs & Animations SE, SUEMR eyes and Eyes AO Clipping Fix.

The other with Vanilla head, Expressive Facegen Morphs & Animations SE, SUEMR eyes and Eyes AO Clipping Fix.

Two optional versions: same as main, but with blind eyes for "higher compatibility" (she became blind because of the fire™).

Both versions have an esp marked as esl.

Facegen textures saved with BC7 compression.

Forwarded fixes from USSEP

Does NOT change the initial appearance/face of Astrid.

Compatibility:

Compatible with all Astrid replacers, except the ones that modify the "Astridend" one.

She looks like an overcooked hash brown, so it would only stand out if the replacer has different color eyes (Immersion ruined/use blind eyes version).

If you want high quality crispy Astrid textures there are these in Skyrim LE nexus (only UNP based body).
