hey! in requirements for lore version you need SJCs Hair Colour not Pineappletree's Vibrant Colors. took me sometime to figure out why wynne was having a white hair lol
and this a great mod! i really like you versions! it's really subtle and good for those who like to keep original game aesthetic for faces
wonderful mod! just letting you know, for the "lore" version, in the toolset the eyebrow color is set to a "chocolate brown" file that isn't referenced in the requirements. i just went in manually to change it to be the same as the hair color, but unless i'm missing something it seems that the eyebrow color isn't listed.
Great job! This is such a lovely take on Wynne's look; it's very realistic and has a lot of personality. If you wouldn't mind, I think a version that ages her up just a bit (maybe to around 60?) and uses her vanilla eye color would be a great bridge between the book lore and the vanilla game version of Wynne. I also personally think she would look great with a slightly softer, more natural lip color, but I do know that varies from her vanilla look.
Hey! Did you have any specific skin texture in mind or just a more aged face structure? I might mess around with a blended texture so she doesn't turn back into a fossil. Also, what are you thinking for lip color? Lighten it or something a bit more orange/nude?
I guess I was picturing slightly deeper wrinkles, but I do see there's a risk of aging her up a lot and winding up back with the same problem as vanilla. A slightly lighter hair and eyebrow color may honestly age her a bit more without changing the fantastic skin texture she has here. I also think she'd look great with a pink-y nude lip color similar to the top one of this pic from SJCs lip colors: https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/140/images/4441-8-1458432666.png, but these are only suggestions and completely up to personal preference.
Yeah, I can definitely use that shade for her lips. I'll probably make several more copies of her face and experiment to see what I can do about a light re-aging (haha). Her hair color might need the most tweaking. It's a shame there's no graying hair tints (if I had to guess, that would require mesh or texture editing???? Maybe trying to add a highlight in the tint could do it though, I'll look into that). I'll see what I can do this afternoon. If you message me I could even send you some early screenshots, but you don't have to if you'd rather wait and see.
Highlights could definitely give a gradual greying affect, but I can totally see how that would be a pain to texture edit. I'm excited to see what you have in store for her! She's one of the tougher characters to capture.
I posted a screenshot of a few changes I made. Here's a link! The light's admittedly pretty poor, but at least I know she works in Awakening! And here is a link to an Imgur album with more edits I made (let me know if it doesn't work).
Oh wow, this is great! She still looks younger than her vanilla self, but so tired that it's tough to place her age exactly. In some angles and lighting she could pass for fifty, but in others she could be in her seventies. I feel like it captures her so well considering the inconsistent lore over her age. Literally the only thing I would suggest is making her lips a teeny bit darker, since they do get a bit lost in certain lightings. But I'd 100% use that Wynne replacer as-is, and I so appreciate the work you've done here.
Thanks! I'll brighten her lip color up a bit and post her this evening. And for anyone else who may be interested, I'll post her toolset files and probably edit the other Wynnes the same way very soon. -- Done! The first Wynne is posted! If you still think her lips should be darker, let me know and I'll fix her. I didn't get a chance to test in game yet so I don't know what they look like outside of the toolset.
Very well-made! I like that you went a more natural route, rather than making her all glamorous. Suits her very nicely!
Probably won't be using this myself. I consider her canon age a questionable retcon and choose to ignore it since I find it hard to believe she was intended to be anywhere near that young during Origins' development lol. Dunno what Gaider was thinking. But definitely one of the best de-aged Wynne mods that I've seen!
Thanks for checking out my mod! If you'd like her to look a little older, I can make that happen. Message me any changes you'd like to see and I can post them for you.
