Maaaaaaaaan do I want that hair for him. I don't know why it's just when I see his weird perfect trim in the back I think "mate did he get the Fog Warriors to do some hair magic cuz that's sharper than my hair salon does a trim goddamn" but that hair makes it seem like he gave up trying to maintain himself while he was on the run. You gotta get that hair man, ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it's so awesome!
You're in luck - I'd lost it when I lost the bulk of my modding wips, but I went ahead and redid the hair, plus two others. I'll upload them later today for ya, since I meant to upload them last night and alas did not.
Thank you so much! I know I vanished but coming back to this was a dream come true! Yay for active modders!
I look forward to replaying the game with Fenris carrying a glorious mane. The fact that you went out of your way to remake it is so awesome to me. Thank you a million times over.
Just noticed an issue with this one, I think it has to do with Fenris glowing during cutscenes.
I had it installed in Act 3 during the quest Alone (when Fenris goes to meet his sister). My game kept crashing/closing itself out during the cutscene where Fenris is yelling at Danarius, just before he starts to glow. When I switched out this mod for another armor mod (jacket from Fenris Files), and the scene worked fine. I can't remember if I had Fenris wearing this armor during any other cutscene where he glows.
Other than that, haven't had any other issues with it and it's still one of my favorite Fenris armor mods :)
ETA: was going through some old notes I made on this playthrough - apparently I was also having crashing issues during Fenris' quest in Act 2 (which he was also wearing this armor). So apparently I had issues during another Fenris glowing cutscene in addition to the abovementioned Act 3 one.
Are you sure the sideswept hair is from the SK Hair Pack? Because if it is it looks a lot different in DA2 than Inquisition, I can't figure out which one it is. Seriously just asking because I want his hair that pretty and I'm sure it's a problem on my end.
These are indeed all hairs by Skara. The braid one is from Cullen's Long Hair and the other from the SK Hair Back, messy sideswept and messy layered hair (or sideswept, here). the messy layered one is in the 'optional' files at the bottom of SK Hair Pack.
Aha! Got it. It's been moved down into Misc since the last time I looked at the SK pack, and you have to click on it to get the picture, that was my problem. (And seeing it again I remember having it long ago the one time I played a male to romance Dorian.) I KNEW it was on my end!
Finally no more "I love males" and "I m working in Blue Oyster" Fenris. Thank you so much! Edit: I tried also with Cullen s hair..OMG!!!! You just made my day :D
Haven't tried adding mods to DA2 yet, so I do have a question: This can be added to my override at any point, correct? For example, I can have him have his normal armor in Act 1, then add this before I start Act 2? It looks a little fancier / more well made than you would expect an escaped slave on the run to have. However, I can totally see my Hawke not knowing what to do with her newfound wealth and deciding to spoil her companions a bit with some new stronger & better looking armor (would do the same with your "Armored Merrill" mod).
Yep! You can install it at any point you feel like, even with game open (have to reload for that but it usually works). And ty for such sweet words! Hope the mod suits you well.
Well after RogueLass, you have to be the best on armor modding/porting! and thanks alot for your efforts to make it better! Only if it's possible and easy, i'd love to keep his original markings. but otherwise, thank you and all the other modders! :*
Wow... I was told that new mods for DA2 are awesome, and i thought it was an exaggeration but... new mods really are awesome especially yours! Porting Inquisition stuff into DA2 is brilliant!!! I always loved Inquisition stuff, and you already ported my most fav (sera, viv, cass, some Inquisititor) armors into DA2! Im going to play this game one more time now like many others im sure. Thank you very much! Well i have a question actually... Could you possibly add an optional file to keep Fenris' original markings? I kinda like them alot, and Improved glow doesn't work with this armor too.
Well I feel flattered to hear that! I'm glad you like it so much.
As for the glow: the newest version has it's own improved glow file, which should work with his body. I'm working on how to make the glow with his face work, but as far as the actual mod it'd be redundant to use it if you're using the newest version of this mod.

EDIT: Loads fine if I use the "old" file, huh
