📋 About This Mod
No more bushy beard. Geralt has the face of a wolf, not a bush. Also no more wet black beard! Also works in Remastered version of the game.
Either Next Gen or Remastered version works in Remastered version of the game. Slight differences, see images for comparison.
For some reason the HW beard in next gen looks worse than the classic version. Like Geralt got his beard teased or something. So I made an attempt to smooth it out a bit. I tried to get it back to the classic look, but it's definitely not perfect. Still, a major improvement over the vanilla version.
This mod also fixes the wet black beard bug. When Geralt is wet, the beard will not have a wet look, thus resolving the weird "wet black beard bug."
I mainly adjusted the waveScaleNoise parameter of the geralt_beard01.redfur, geralt_beard02.redfur, and geralt_beard03.redfur files.
Only applies to the main beard (so far?). No DLC beards were adjusted.
Install
Just put the modclassicBeard folder into your mods folder.
Compatibility
This mod will conflict with any mod that alters the geralt_beard01.redfur, geralt_beard02.redfur, and geralt_beard03.redfur files. Give this mod priority if you have any conflicts.
