Can't make my mind up about this one. While Bioware did something to make the vanilla eyes appear more natural, it's still noit perfect so this mod could add to this. But I'm not sure whether the eye appear too big now with this mod or not. So let me simply ask you: Did you had realism in mind or did you intentionally made the iris "larger than life" so to speak? Thanks in advance!
I was aiming more for realism, but it ended up a little larger than I'd expected. I've spent a dozen hours or so playing with it as it currently is and I think that in action it's less cartoony than still images might suggest. I think I've still got the in-progress files saved, so sometime this week, I can try to make something in the middle, if you'd like to try that!
I would, looking forward to it. I will also try your current version with some older savegames where some cutscenes happen to observe how it looks ingame. ^^
/edit: Oh wow, you already did the medium sized version. Will try it right away.
I compare it against the HR Eye Retexture mod and I must admit I like that mod better for two reasons: a) It has a bit more color and looks a bit more realistic and with the changes Bioware made eyes already look much better compared to the release version and b) iris looks more round compared to your iris which looks flat.
You can see here why this is:

There is a bit more reflection in the middle plus a darker part around the brim which makes the iris in the HD eye retex look round whilst your iris look flat. I hope you don't mind the critisizm as is actually isn't real critisizm, I'm just an average player and no expert on eyes. ^^
That one's great too! There are a few great retexes for eyes out there; tbh, partly I was just curious if I could do it, and then I liked the results well enough for my own Ryder that I thought others might like them for theirs, too. Glad you found one that works for you.
Thank you! I love everyone who's tried it. I started modding things a few years ago but this is the first thing I've thought might be decent enough to share with others.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like it -- I've been tooling around with mods for years, but this is the first one I've felt other people might like, too.
