Features
Bodyslide Files
- can be used to customize the shape a bit
- in Bodyslide you can find them under 'GoamsElvenEars'
Racemenu
- the ears are fully sculptable
- can be exported to use them for your standalone followers
- comes with tri files so the ears will match your preset
(It won't match the preset if you have skulpted the ear area a lot.
Ear related sliders in the 'Head' category except 'Ear Size' aren't supported aswell. They should all be 0)
Skin Patches
- for now I made a version for 9 different skin mods for a better head to ear transition
- if your skin isn't covered I recommend to choose the version with the smallest file size
(The transition will look worse but the ears are still fully functional)
- generally the transition will never look perfect, just something to keep in mind
How to use (very important)
Basics
1. Make sure you have Racemenu installed
Also highly recommended:
- High Poly Head (The ear tri files are optimized for high poly. It will work with vanilla head too tho. Also if you use HP Head, don't forget
to enable it in Racemenu with the Head -> Facepart slider)
- any ENB (the ears have a blank subsurface scattering map. If you have no ENB, the transition between ear and head won't be smooth)
- Bodyslide and Outfitstudio (to change the ear shapes)
2. Download and install one of the main files. (If there isn't a version for your skin type, just choose the smallest one)
3. In game select the ears of your choice via Racemenu. You will find them in the 'Facial Hair' category. Click spoiler button for reference
- make sure all ear related sliders in the 'head' category except 'Ear Size' are set to 0.
- if the old ears clip through, use the sculpting tool to hide them. Mask the area around the seam before you start sculpting.
Tips
1. Work non destructive!!!
- if you are about to sculpt the original ears because of clipping, always backup your preset before. The og ears are part of the
head shape, so if you decide to not use my modded ears anymore, you most likely won't be able to restore the ear area back to normal.
I strongly recommend to fix potential clipping at the very end and also make two presets; one with ears and one without.
Example: MyPreset007, MyPreset007wEars.
2. Sculpting of the modded ears
- mask the seam area of the ears before you start sculpting them. Click the spoiler button for reference
Also as a side note; if you use makeup that covers the ear area, it will cause very visible seams
3. Ear Size
- the ears are quite large by default. use the 'Ear Size' slider to adjust them. I found -1.2 to be a believable size.
only negative numbers work. Click the spoiler button for reference.
Default size
-1.2 Size
Standalone Followers and Permission
You have permission to use the ear assets for for your follower/Npc mods
- your mod can be fully standalone, no need to make my mod a requirement
- you must credit me
- do not make this mod redundant by making the ears selectable in racemenu through your mod
Q&A
Q: Will you make a male version
A: Under no circumstances. To make this mod was already the most frustrating thing I've ever done in Skyrim modding and a male version
would mean to redo 90% of the work. I will not do this to myself. I'm sorry.
Q: Will you add more skin patches?
A: Yes, maybe. If there are enough requests (and if I get permission from the skin creator)
