Important Notice:
As of version 1.1, DropTheSquid's BETA Appearance Modification Menu for LE3 is supported, so you can now change the hairstyles whenever you can change the rest of Femshep's appearance!

This is the LE3-version of the hairpack. If you're looking for the LE1-2 version, follow the link below (credits to Malefiquinn for the conversion!):

Even More Hairstyles (LE1 - LE2) 

Overview:
This mod adds the hairstyles originally ported to Mass Effect 3 by NameIsLooney, in one single DLC package, so there won't be much conflict with other mods.


Installation Instructions:
You will need the latest version of ME3Tweaks Mod Manager, to be able to apply the mod. Just drag-and-drop the .7z-file into the Mod Library.

The hairstyles can be set using the "BETA Appearance Modification Menu"-mod, but you can also use the Trilogy Save Editor for it.

Some of these hairstyles might show some seethrough bits of Shepard's scalp, you can alter the following setting in Trilogy Save Editor to try to alleviate this issue (is automatically done when using the "Appearance Modification Menu"):
HEAD MORPH-tab -> Scalar Parameters -> HED_Scalp_Mask_OverlayKill_Scalar 
Change value 0.000 to 1.000, and the seethrough bits should be gone, mostly.

Note that not all of the longer hairstyles will look good with all sets of armor/casual wear. The hair will either be clipping through, or floating above the clothing. It is a known issue with the Mass Effect Trilogy, and not something that I can do a lot about it.

Using TSE, you will need to input the following codes (between spoiler tags) into Trilogy Save Editor->Headmorphs to use the hairstyles on your Shepard (refer to the Image Section which name belongs to which style. Don't forget to save to a new save!):

Known issues:

• If a savegame causes LE3 to crash to desktop, check the lines you altered in the Trilogy Save Editor, there might be odd characters like question marks added, remove those and try again.

• Some of these hairstyles might show some seethrough bits of Shepard's scalp, likely because the hair mesh doesn't precisely fit (I'm not good with altering meshes (yet)).
To try to alleviate this issue, you can alter the following setting in Trilogy Save Editor:
HEAD MORPH-tab -> Scalar Parameters -> HED_Scalp_Mask_OverlayKill_Scalar 
Change value 0.000 to 1.000, and the seethrough bits should be gone, mostly.

• Not all of the longer hairstyles will look good with all sets of armor/casual wear. The hair will either be clipping through, or floating above the clothing. It is a known issue with the Mass Effect Trilogy, and not something that I can do a lot about it.
