2024, and someone finally made it! nexus is full of anime, K-pop band members like hairstyles, and nothing really good looking vanilla lore friendly based hair, until now
Thank you very much for the update! However, I am forced to report an artifact with dark elf hairstyle 8 and 4 for a male high elf. I don't have any mods that change the head model, which could lead to this. https://ibb.co/KLyqNS0 https://ibb.co/ZHtgF3J I've been waiting for this hairstyle for a long time and I hope it gets fixed.
Edit: No matter what I do, some nifs still get corrupted when converting them to LE. I'm currently looking for ways to fix them, but it may take a while. Until then, try deleting the NIFs I wrote below from the Data\Meshes\actors\character\character assets\hair folder "femaledarkelfhair06_shaved.nif" "femaledarkelfhair08_shaved.nif" "maledarkelfhair04_shaved.nif" "maledarkelfhair05_shaved.nif" "maledarkelfhair09_shaved.nif" Note: Deleting these does not change the hair to vanilla hair, it just makes the game use the vanilla hair scalps instead of the broken scalps.
I did everything as you said, but there are still bald patches on my scalp. https://ibb.co/cJYf2Ph I'd rather wait until you can fix it. I have a long-time, constant companion, a high elf, who uses this exact hairstyle, which is why it is important to me. I will wait for a solution to the problem.)
Download the new version, I fixed the scalps, but for NPCs, instead of the mod here, download my other mod, Better Looking NPCs.
Edit: I just saw the picture in the link, are you using High Poly Head or a similar mod? Because as far as I know it is incompatible with this mod and needs to be patched. I suggest you use Expressive Facegen Morphs instead
Edit: I added a patch for HPH but since I don't have HPH I couldn't test it properly. If you are using it, I would appreciate it if you could test it and let me know if it works properly.
As I wrote above, I do not use mods that change the shape or model of the head. I apologize, but I do not plan to install HPH, because I do not install mods that I do not use.:) I installed it a long time ago, but then I had to painfully clean the game. I want to thank you for fixing the scalp, I have it displayed normally. However, the dark elf hairstyle and some others, for a high elf, do not fit snugly to the skull. But in general, everything works. Thank you so much for your work! I'm following the updates. :)
No problem, just when I saw the photo in the link, the first thing that came to my mind was HPH, and the thing that caused the baldness on that scalp is probably something that changed the nif or tri files related to the head, because as far as I see, you are having the same problem with the scalps in the vanilla game. so It's definitely not caused by this mod. Also, if you are using the race menu, changing the head morphs too much may cause problems.
Lol, heads up. I was having issues with NPC's eyes misaligning with their faces. The solution, the ONLY solution is to ^^^^ use Better Looking NPCs seriously, I wasted a lot of time trying to get the NPC module here to work when BLNPCs works flawlessly with a drag and drop. BLNPCs is same new hairs and improved faces. Use that, is my advice. And no esp with that mod.
Also, as Eraandiel said on the other page: Install this hairs mod and Expressive Facegen Morphs, player characters will look freakin amazing w/o veering too far from vanilla style. I didn't need Race Menu to have great results.

An alternative to the "Vanilla hair remake NPCs", Trust me, NPCs will look much better with this mod.
Thanks for porting this
You've done a great job, thanks!!
