I'm open to it, but moreso in the future because rn my two priorities are looking into outfit conversions for the transmasc body and afterwards trying to find a way to make animated Changeling swirls. So it's like. Something I'll keep in mind for sure but it won't be happening right away. : D
out of the 5 skin tones in this mod which one do you kinda want the skin tone to vibe with. if you haven't already yourself, I've edited some of the skin tones for personal use already. Down to try and make it work, and link the edited pak file. just wondering cuz say changeling 2 is a very different vibe than changeling 5 ect.
They are a makeup/tattoo, I released them as another mod though I plan to 1) completely rework them because I got hit with a bolt of enlightenment and now understand how to paint textures in Blender. 2) When I rework them and make this temporary solution better-looking, I want to look into the real actual permanent solution, which is "I will make this game let me use animated swirls and I'll only stop my efforts if I drop dead." This will be hard and painful and possibly impossible but I am stronger and more resilient than any line of code and perfectionism is my greatest motivator.
There are only 5 skintones, you can see it in the image section of this mod in the skin showcase image. I formally call the last two the undead skintones but if you look at the image section you will notice that the skintones there are called the name they are called in-game. Aka I'm trying to say that in-game they're called Changeling skins. The "undead" ones are the last two (so Changeling 4 and Changeling 5), as you can see in the image section of this mod.
So #5 is defiantly my favorite, if only because its not like any other skin tone from a mod I've seen, especially for male Tieflings. I am in love with that gradient, I really am, but... It also makes the male genitalia that deep blue color- for all races. I have no idea if this is a bug or was, in fact, intended but it is inexplicably hilarious, please don't fix it.
all the vulva's are just bright blue and all the penis's have psychics even though I'm quite sure I did not download the mod that gives them psychics. This is the funniest most confusing thing that has ever happened to me. I don't even know if it's this mod, i have no idea what's happening edit: it was unique tav. that was insane. but the penis psychics are still there, have there always been psychics and I didn't notice? This is bewildering
I can't exactly control the colour of the genitals, all skins simply have these parameters: hemoglobin, melaning, veins, yellowing. I can control the colour of those parameters and how strong they will be (eg iirc both 4 and 5 have pretty heavy veining, I think around 1.2? Normal parameter is like...0.3), but I do not control the placement. That is what the body and face texture maps do. Deep blue in #5's case is...the hemoglobin, I believe, but possible also the veining (honestly I don't know off the top of my head), and if the genitals are deep blue, well that means that the game's body and face textures apparently have a pretty heavy dose of hemoglobin and veining around that area. But that isn't under my control.
I don't know if it's intentional, but all the skin tones on most of my heads look like this. Are there supposed to be grey dots all over her face instead of the swirls? The same happens to the body; she's an elf, if that matters. This is skintone 5
The body looks like this; ignore the red gradient; it's from another mod. I use uniquetav, is this just a head preset problem? I'm praying I censored the picture well enough lol
that's because of the texture of the head you're using, it looks different on all heads. Orin's swirls aren't actually included in the mod. Btw what head mod are you using? Your character looks awesome :)
Vemperen's Other Heads Repaired it's the 'Sylva' head. Thanks for replying. I hope one day with the right mod tools there will be an option to get Orin's swirls; it's my favorite skin texture ( ; ω ; )
Gradient Hands and Feet Body Tattoo but I changed the color of the gradient by changing the code in unique tav, it's very simple and included in the desc of the mod x)

Are the Undead elsewhere in the list of colors than the bottom? Or possibly unique to a certain body/race?
