📋 About This Mod
Description:
These mods remove Ciri, Triss, and Yennefer hoods to show their beautiful hair. Compatible with vanilla and DLC costumes.
You may wonder why I'm making these mods when there are already similar mods by Feregorn. Well, I'm using two different methods to "remove" the hood. How is this implemented? I made the hooded costume entities point to NULL for the hooded mesh part. I also made the hooded mesh points to NULL texture. When the game try to load the NULL parts, they become invisible (hence, "removed"). :)
This should theoretically increase compatibility with other mods tremendously, since these mods don't modify important character entity files at all.
Installation:
Tested on Witcher 3 GOG GOTY Next Gen (v4. 0)
