⫸ About:
This was a request to convert the Body Type 2 Human Head 8 to Type 4, as it is currently missing from the game. Available now for BT4 Human, Elf, Half-elf, and Tiefling.
The head is standalone and has been scaled up the best I could while trying to keep the facial proportions close-ish to the Type 2 version.
Uses a custom skeleton so the animations, piercings, and beards should all fit a bit better.
⫸ Installation:
- Unzip the downloaded file/s and place the jerinski_HUM8_BT4.pak and/or jerinski_HUM8_BT4_zazz.pak into your game's Mods folder:
..\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods
- Use BG3 Mod Manager and move mod from Inactive over to Active Mods. Save load order and then Export to game.
- In CC you should now see a new Head Icon [?] for Humans Body Type 4 named: Head 8 strong and/or Head 8 strong zazz
To update mod just overwrite the .pak in your Mods folder.
Installation for the loose file request:
FAIR WARNING for loose file usage: head mods with custom skeletons, when loaded loose like this, can potentially have some animation oddness in cutscenes. If that's the case I cannot support it and simply recommend using the pak version!
- Unzip the downloaded file, open it.
- Drag and drop the Data folder into your game's base directory
(e.g. the default with Steam is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3 ) - If you are prompted to Replace, do so. Everything should automatically go into place. Done!
To uninstall follow these paths:
- Head: ..\Data\Generated\Public\SharedDev\Assets\Characters\_Anims\Humans\_MaleStrong\Resources -> the 1 gr2 file
- Armature: ..\Data\Public\SharedDev\Assets\Characters\_Anims\Humans\_MaleStrong -> the 1 gr2 file
- Textures: ..\Data\Generated\Public\Shared\Assets\Characters\_Models\Humans\HUM_M_NKD\HUM_M_Head_A\Resources -> the 3 dds files
- I may have accidentally made Jason Momoa. This is fine.
Thanks to:
- Padme4000 for the wonderful tutorials and resources
- The Down by the River and BG3 Modding Community Discord servers
- Aloija's BG3 Armature Tools for Blender, which is a great add-on for getting animations and piercings/beards to fit to new facial structures
