About this mod
Allows modded hairs to be affected by effects from R.A.S.S, Wet and Cold, ENB Wet Shaders, Vanilla spell shader effects like Healing and Flesh spells, and etc. This will also fix the issue of hairs not being rendered correctly behind smoke effects.

I'm surprised that no one has done this yet, but here's a xEdit script to change the hair shaders on certain mods to be more consistent with the vanilla ones. This means that it can now be affected by spells like the flesh spells and also shader effects like R.A.S.S. or the ENB rain shader. You do lose a small amount of Aesthetics because the hair will not fade as nicely, but I prefer the rougher look anyways.
The script scans your load-order for ESPs and edits the relevant NPC FaceGeom or Head Part NIFs and changes the value of their NiAphaProperty to 4844. It works for both New/Vanilla Replacer Hairstyles and NPC Overhauls.
Install:
The list of compatible/supported mods are here.
If you make config files for other mods and want me to include them here, just pm me. I'll try to add more support on my own when I have more time.
This is the first-ever script I've completed so please let me know if something's not working.

Install:
- Drag and drop into xEdit's "Edit Scripts" folder.
- Load xEdit and run "000_cHON_HairShaderPatcher.pas". It will scan your whole load-order automatically and apply the changes necessary.
- Errors might pop-up, but usually, this means that the file being referenced cannot be found. This might mean that it is packed in a BSA or that a record was leftover and never removed (like in the case of KS's Hairdos). It's fine to ignore these as the patcher won't save the NIF unless everything goes right.
- The script will only run for mods that have a .txt file in the xEdit\EditScripts\cHON\HairShaderPatcher\ folder. I did this because I didn't want wild edits to meshes that don't need it and also to save time. NPC overhauls do not require you to edit the Head Parts that are included in the mods because those are only used to generate the FaceGeom files. Near bald hairstyles also depend on the transparency to look right, so a blacklist can be set in the .txt file.
- If you are using the universal patcher for VHR, run this patcher on VHR first and then regenerate the FaceGeoms in CK for the changes to apply to all NPCs.
