My only problem is that I don't understand how to use the toolset. Am I supposed to replace the default human female preset heads with these and, if so, how? I have tried googling and looking it up but I can't find anything that explains easily how to do that.
I understand the toolset can be tricky, and a lot of times overwhelming to figure out, but the good news is toolset is not required to install the heads, all it does is create and import.
I'm working on a chargenmorph xml for this mod, but here's how you do it manually:
1. Extract and pop the file with the MOPs in either the override folder in the main directory or the toolsetexport folder in documents.
2. Get out a chargenmorph xml from your override (if you have one from one of the other mods like Pineappletree's Vibrant Colours), and open/edit it with Notepad or Wordpad.
3. Read this VERY carefully:
Scroll to the Human Female head section and down to the last line. Press Enter to start a new line after the last, and write this exactly:
<resource name="hf_agata.mop" />
So, you basically write in the name of the individual head between "hf_" and "mop" til you have all 30 names down. Check the file with the MOPs to see their names.
4. Save the chargenmorph xml.
5. Open up the game and test run the Character Creation at the beginning. BE SURE YOU HAVE ALL THE REQUIRED MODS if you want them to show like in the images.
Ah! That makes sense and was easy to follow. :3 The heads didn't show up at first until I used the DA CharGenMorph Compiler. Now they show up but a couple of them look odd so I must have installed the mods incorrectly. I will look at my override folder but thank you again. :3
Edit: Just one final question, I think. I have the eyelashes mod but the eyelashes aren't working like they should. They are solid black around the eyes. I thought maybe it was the mod itself but it seems works with some elf mop heads that I got to work with your help.
It is possible you are missing Kanihime's Textures (found under Ferelden Models), DAO Misc and DAO Companions. Some of the contain the eyelashes you seek, but I am not sure which ones contain what you're looking for.
DAO Misc 1 & 2= http://nerdykani.blogspot.de/2012/11/dao-misc-stuff-part-2.html http://nerdykani.blogspot.de/2012/11/dao-misc-stuff.html
DAO Companions= http://www.mediafire.com/download/3s26as8kp8q5u05/DAO_Companions.7z
If all else fails, I'll send you the rest of the eyelashes.
You have required a lot of mods. Are there any that we don't really need (such as Ferelden Models?) because I like the way my companions look/i already have mods changing how they look. This only affect npcs that aren't companions right? If not do you think you could make of version of it?
I've tried to reduce the amount of mods required. Most you'll need are tint mods (Pineappletree, CC's Tones etc) and eyelash-mods (Kanihime and LOTC). I might need to go back over them and check again, it's been a while since I was last on here.
Sorry, I'm having some problems with getting the eyelashes working. The only head to work is Agata, whereas all the others have black boxes.
I've installed the LOTC eyelashes + textures just as instructed (+toolset ones). All the faces are very beautiful, and I feel very limited only being able to use one :c
I don't remember where else I got the eyelashes, they were all over the internet and not labelled so clearly. If all else fails, I can send you the remainder of the eyelashes. Otherwise, if you know how to use the toolset, you can simply edit the mrh and replace them with the LOTC eyelashes, which are also great touches.
I know, so hard to pick just one XD But, if you want to use the others just set them to some NPC's you want and export as MORs.
Thank you so much for including the mrh's. There are a lot of missing textures that I don't know where to find but since you released mrh's it is an easy replace. For some reason I only have kh lashes 1,3,4 and no 2 so I just switch the number to make it show. And I don't have realistic sjc textures, cant find them but easy fix by switching those to some other sjc tex that I do have. I will be using some of these faces for npc's I will post pics when I do ;-)
The heads are very well done! Great mod, you talented lady! ^_^
i dont get it...what this mod does? It is for the main character or it will change NPC's ? I got the redesign so if it change npc's i dont think ill be able to use this one
It's for editing in the toolset (hence the MRH files) or making them MOPs for the CC. It can be for the main character, or for a NPC, whatever you wish.

Once I get life out of the way, and have some time, I'll work on those.

Regardless, thanks for your interest in my mod. I look forward to seeing your images of them.
When you get around to EF will you make any using the da2 elf head as a base?
I got the redesign so if it change npc's i dont think ill be able to use this one
