About this mod

Gives vanilla-friendly hairstyles to (RS Children) Lucia, Mila Valentia, Dorthe and Erith

Requirements
Permissions and credits
As great as it is for replacing potatoes with human beings, I've always hated how RS Children radically transforms Lucia's look. Especially that goofy Saskia hairstyle from Witcher 2 with the headband removed but the hair still magically staying in place. So I've made a mod to give her the TK09 haircut from saLa Hair and restore her original features. And then I made a mod to fix Mila Valentia, and then one for Dorthe, and then one for Erith...

Now, it's time for a single mod, ESL-flagged, combining all these changes!

Useful infos:

Short summary:

  • Lucia, Mila Valentia and Erith now have a stylish haircuts that look like their original ones
  • Dorthe has a stylish haircut that's more vanilla-friendly
  • Lucia, Mila and Dorthe have brown eyes again. No more anachronistic contact lenses!
  • Lucia is blonde again!
  • Mila has dark brown hair again! 
  • ESL-flagged so it doesn't bloat your load order!
  • Now merged into a single file!
  • Removed useless dependencies so it should be compatible even if you deactivate fishing
  • Talos(?)

IMPORTANT:

  • You need saLa Hair. It's an amazing mod and the hair looks good. Also it's required for this mod to work.
  • Obviously, you also need RS Children Overhaul.
  • You don't need Aymar and Friends, but it's awesome, it's the reason I installed RSCO and I feel like giving it a shout out.

You can download the individual versions here:

Install using your preferred mod manager or by extracting the contents of the archive to your Data folder.

Useless infos:

Making this mod was only possible thanks to a series of coincidences, most notably me using two outdated version of RS Children at different points in its development. The infamous darkface bug didn't occur in Oldrim when I changed Lucia's hair for the first time, which is the only reason I knew it was possible to change her hair. Fast forward to a week ago or so, I discovered the current version of RS Children doesn't actually let you export the facegen data (children simply don't have faces, which leads to pretty unsettling sights).

The only reason I was able to make this mod is because I still had a pretty old version and I chose to keep a back-up of it at the last second before upgrading... I'm not sure if it's a result of my (fairly overly complicated) modlist or if happens no matter the settings, but it's still weird to think I might have not been able to do any of this if I hadn't backed up my files.

As the not-so-old adage goes: "save often, save early"
