1. Description

*****************************

This is a resource intended to allow you to add permanent horns to your characters. The horns are conformulated, so they will fit any size head. Currently there are three sizes: short, medium, and long. There are 12 different color choices: regular (vanilla Oblivion), black, grey, white, yellow, orange, red, magenta, purple, blue, green, and brown.

A test esp is included to serve as an example of how to use the horns.

*****************************

2. Installation

*****************************

To install, unzip the files into the "Bethesda/Oblivion/Data" directory. Then using the Construction Set, you can add them any race. I recommend using these with Scanti's Merged Teeth, so you can put the horns in a teeth slot.

*****************************

3. Playing the test plugin

*****************************

From the Oblivion Launcher, select Data Files and check the box next to the PHHornTest.esp file. To view the horns ingame, travel to the Imperial City Market District and look for a door to the left of Rindir's Staffs. The npcs do not talk since having 12 npcs talking to each other in one room is just plain annoying. :P

Please Note: This plugin is not meant to be a permanent fixture in your savegames, but should cause no ill effects if you do.

5. Other Character Resources

Here is a list of other character related resources that I have compiled to make customizing easier. Please note that some may require knowledge of the Construction Set and/or other utilities. I cannot guarantee that links will continue to work as it is up the mod authors to keep them working.
