📋 About This Mod

a book-friendly mod for our favorite bard!

This mod is obviously inspired by Karpfenfrosch's Alternative Appearance for Dandelion, please make sure to drop an endorsement to that mod first! I think Karpfenfrosch did a great job in finding a perfect in-game hairstyle for Dandelion. Guillaume's hair was a perfect choice for book Jaskier, both for it's blondness (that we were introduced to in Season of Storms) and occasional curliness (Baptism of Fire).

"As for Dandelion the dandy, he had already been mistaken a few times for an elf or half-elf, especially since he had started wearing his hair to his shoulders and occasionally used curling irons."

I was interested in making it a right shade for me and also tweaking face a little, to make it less.. generic and more age-appropriate. So I added some freckles and blemishes, more rough skin with some aging wrinkles, and a teeth gap! Solely because I always imagined him to have that adorable trait. Aaaand a bigger beret. Couldn't resist it.

Update 1. 2

Fixed loading times issues.

To update from v1. 1, use 'Loading times fix' from Updates section. Replace previous modBookJaskiermod with one from Updates and enjoy!

New users should simply use Main File and any extra from Optionals or Miscellaneous sections, they're fully compatible.

Update 1. 1

Finally finished and uploaded updated outfit! It removes his redcloth neck tie and collar, and replaces them with a ruffle and a starched collar (was that translation correct??). Plus I did some small changes here and there, mainly making the overall body shape less bulky as it's mentioned a couple of times that Jaskier was lean. I don't accept requests concerning his figure. Feel free to make any alterations you want though!

I also removed the jewels. May bring them back, but don't want to. They look stupid anyways, especially considering every other person wearing them are like royals.

Also did requested changes and am going on a hiatus for a few weeks. Make sure to read installation instruction or I'll bite your face off in the comments :"D You've been warned!~ <3

Known issues:

v1. 1- OUTFIT IS BUGGED

Takes way too much to load in dialogues. For now I'm too tired of this mod to spent another 15-30 hours to fix, but eventually I'll get where the problem comes from.

Use optional 'Book Jaskier DLC Addon -- just the hair' file to disable the outfit and fix loading times.

FIXED!

Turns out WKit has issues with packing already W3Oven's imported textures. Most likely those set to 'Default' compression types, but eh. It explains why I had no bug when testing mid-development.

Anyways, it's gone now! Phew!

- tiny gaps somewhere between the meshes

unnoticeable until you pay attention or place Jaskier in front of some hug
