Name: Sideburns Pack
Version: 1.0
Author: Drew Oates
Date: 31/10/2010

Description
Want sideburns but hate the "Shaggy Sideburns" that Fallout offers? Then this mod is for you!
This pack adds three new sets of sideburns for you to use on your characters. I may add more in the future, if I can think of any other styles to use.
It also adds the eyebrow meshes, as for some reason they're missing from all the facial hairs. I would have done them all, but there's already a mod that does that and I don't want to steal his thunder. As a matter of fact, go get it: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34730

The styles:

Trimmed: Based on my own sideburns, and the reason for creating this mod. They are trimmed sideburns that come down to about ear-level.
Long: Similar to the trimmed sideburns, but come down to jaw-level. They are also angled downwards so that they match the jaw line.
Flared: Same length as the long sideburns, but are thinner and curve outwards to a point for more of an Elvis feel. I figured they made sense seeing as how we're in Vegas!

Installation
Extract the archive into your Fallout: New Vegas data folder ("C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\fallout new vegas\Data" by default, although I wouldn't recommend installing games there).

Uninstallation

Additional Notes
The sideburns don't look right on a lot of the shorter hairstyles in the game, but this is already a problem with beards too, as it seems most hairstyles wern't designed with facial hair in mind. But it matches with enough to give you some options. I don't know how it works with other hair mods, as I haven't tried any yet. If there are any major problems with hair it should work with, let me know.

The sideburns arn't perfectly even, and in some cases doesn't look as good on one side, though it's not very noticeable unless you're looking for it. I tried to adjust them, but just made it worse. I may come back later and fix this, if people find it to be enough of an issue.

I don't know if this is noteworthy, but for some reason all the sideburns appear at the top of the facial hairs list. I don't know if this is something I did, or if it would do this for all modified hairs, but if it was me I'd like to know. I don't want to look like an egotist. :P
