Introduction
This document describes how to change the hairstyle of one of Wodo's NPC's with Physics Hair.
Disclaimer: By "Physics Hair" I mean hair and not wig. My older mods use wigs. My newer mods were created December 29, 2023 and later.
Disclaimer: I am not attempting to explain how to use xEdit. If you are a novice, start with the documentation on that software's page.
Required Tools / Mods
- xEdit (SSEdit)
- Whatever physics hair mod you wish to use.
Some physics hair mods are
- KS Hairdos - HDT SMP (Physics) from https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/31300
- Xing, Dint, etc from https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/43120
- Start xEdit.
- Select the mod you intend to edit. (Such as WodoWhiterunCarlotta.esp) If you wish to use a hair mod from a mod other than I used, select that too. Load the mods (the OK button)
- If you are using a hair mod other than the mod I used, you will need to add it as a master to the mod for the NPC.
- Click the NPC mod and expand it until you see the NPC record. Visually search for the PNAM fields. (Scroll down.)
- Find the hair field. Double click. Click the down arrow to expand the pull-down menu. Finding the hair you want isn't easy with the Dint hair and easier with the KS Hairdos hair. I struggle with finding the hair too. But do not select any hair that has the word "extra" in the description.
- Exit to save. Confirm save. (Suggest you let it make a backup in case of mistakes.)
- Test in game.
