About this mod

Alters the visual appearance of Slayer Form to look similar to my Dark Urge, Siggi. Does not alter the appearance of the other Slayer Form encountered in the game (If you know, you know)

Siggi's Custom Slayer Form Design

After playing through a couple of playthroughs (1,100 hours), I found myself wishing that I could make the Slayer Form look a bit more like my Dark Urge character, Siggi (who I uh... Play exclusively. Don't worry about it). I never got around to it, though, since I have exactly 0 artistic ability.

That's when my amazing wife came in and decided to paint a custom Slayer texture in photoshop for me to use. I couldn't help but play with it a bit in the new Photo mode and I had way too much fun screwing around with it. Now, it's available here for you all to enjoy!

HOW DOES THE MOD WORK? [ACT 3 SPOILERS]

Nothing crazy. It just overwrites the SLY_Player_Body_A and the SLY_Player_Head_A Virtual Textures in the game files. Doing it this way kept it from also modifying Orin's Slayer skin as well.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This can be installed like most other .pak mods using BG3MM by LaughingLeader (if you don't have it, you can download it from GitHub here! - While you can install this mod using Vortex, I strongly advise against it. This has nothing to do with the mod itself or how it interacts with Vortex, it has more to do with how Vortex interacts with BG3. It places mod files in strange places in your game folder and in your AppData, handles mods and load orders very messily, and has personally caused me a lot of headache. If you prefer it, go ahead - but again, I recommend BG3MM instead for a much simpler and more seamless modding experience.

  • Manually download the .zip
  • Unzip the file
  • Take the .pak folder inside and drag and drop it into your inactive mods in BG3MM.
  • Slide it over to active mods along with other cosmetic/retexture mods in your load order as recommended in this load order guide.

FILE/MOD INCOMPATIBILITIES

This mod shouldn't cause any incompatibility issues except for any mods which alter Virtual Textures for specifically the player's Slayer VirtualTexture. If in doubt, load this after any mods which alter those textures. Otherwise, I'd just group it together with other character customization mods.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Not sure why, but the UV maps on the horns and tusks are SUPER sensitive. I'm not super sharp on how UV maps work, but it looks a bit wonky in certain lighting situations - especially on lower graphics settings.
  • This mod doesn't alter the portrait icon. It's not generated ingame like the portraits for Tav, Durge, and your party members are. If I get the time, I'll create one and throw it into an update, but I'm working on getting a degree in a year while working full time, so it's not crazy high on my list of priorities. If I get time, I get time.
