About this mod

This mod adds a new hairstyle for female wood elves, available in eight colors (blond, red, brown, black...). I made the mesh myself entirely from scratch, with the exception of the ears. The texture is based on a photo that I took of a wig.

II- DESCRIPTION

This mod adds a new hairstyle for female wood elves, available in eight colors (blond, red, brown, black...). I made the mesh myself entirely from scratch, with the exception of the ears. The texture is based on a photo that I took of a wig.

This hairstyle can be chosen in the race selection menu with a new game.
If you want to use it with your current game, use this code in the console :
"enableracemenu".

The mod was cleaned with TESAME.

Not much to add, except that I spent a lot of time working on this mesh, and I hope you will enjoy it in your game. I am happy to share it with you all!


v1.05: the hair is now available for Bretons too!

III- KNOWN ISSUES

Unfortunately the hair may clip with heads from Vanilla Morrowind, and/or with heads added by other mods. I haven't tested it with a lot of heads, only the Wood Elf heads from the mod "Vvardenfell Visages", and it seemed to work ok, at least in the cs.

This hairstyle is full alpha-enabled, meaning that the texture uses transparency to simulate real hair. The problem with this method is the overlapping alphas ; in short, there are slight graphical bugs on the hairstyle, some transparent parts "hiding" some other parts of the hair. Don't worry, as I minimized this problem as much as I could, and it's not that noticeable ingame.

Also the hairstyle may look weird on the paperdoll and under the water, due to transparency issues. I can't correct that :( , but I think this bug is not too important.

The mesh is not physiqued.

Finally, this hairstyle is a highpoly mesh, and may cause some loss of fps in your game.

If you find other bugs/problems, please let me know.

IV- CREDITS/THANKS

I did this mesh and this texture myself, but I have to thank the following people, who made
this mod possible :
- Rhedd, for the ear mesh.
- Gorg, for the ear textures. I renamed it to avoid any conflicts with his mods, but it isn't mine.
- everyone who posted in the screenshots thread to encourage me! Thank you! I wouldn't have bothered to release this without you :)

If I forgot anyone, please let me know... I'm not sure I mentioned everyone I had to !
