Or just tired of seeing the same pixelated faces everywhere?
In both cases this mod is for you.
For details please refer to the comparison image (top pic = original, bottom pic = modded).
Majority of heads are from the Gold Remaster mod, few are from the newest L'Hiver, except that Sarah has her real face (sorry JLO fans!).

Installation
Unpack the zip file into your game's main directory. Union is optional but recommended to adjust few womens' visuals (Edda, Nadja, Sonja, Vanja). Otherwise i.e. Sonja's new head texture would not match her old head mesh.

1.0 | 19.02.2023
added compatibility patch for New Balance mod:
- Nadja: restored original model and outfit
- Cassia: restored original model and outfit
- Lucia: uses new face to have a different one that Cassia and new outfit to have different one than Abigail, uses original body texture (skimpy fur, although in NB it looks different, but also interesting, so I decided to leave it like that)
- one guard in upper town got brand new face (to prevent conflict with Abigail from New Balance)
