About this mod

These skins are based on VV's and Thersese's models obviously.The face is heavily edited though,it looks more humane but thats my personnal taste.I had a Malkavian character in mind while making these models .English is not my native language so bear with any errors you may find in this description.

Permissions and credits
Installation
Extract the contents of the archive into the ''Vampire'' folder.If you are using a mod like Clan Quest or the Unofficial patch,you should extract the archive into their corrseponding folders,for example the Clan Quest Mod creates a folder named "CQM" in your installation directory,so this should be the destistation folder of the files provided.


How to use these models with every clan
Search for a txt file named "clandoc000".Its located inside your installation directory.
(For example ,Vampire The Masquerade - Bloodlines\CQM\vdata\system for Clan Quest Mod users)
Lets say you want to use these skins for the female malkavian.Open the clandoc000.txt file and search this line: "Player_Malkavian".The lines below directs which models the game uses for the malkavian female character

"Clan""Malkavian"
"F_Body0""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor0/Malkavian_Female_Armor_0.mdl"
"F_Body1""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor1/Malk_girl_Armor_1.mdl"
"F_Body2""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor2/Malk_girl_Armor_2.mdl"
"F_Body3""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"
"F_Body4""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"
"F_Body5""models/character/pc/female/malkavian/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"


In order to change the deafult models to the ones I provide you have to change the above lines into:

"F_Body0""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor0/Malkavian_Female_Armor_0.mdl"
"F_Body1""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor1/Malk_girl_Armor_1.mdl"
"F_Body2""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor2/Malk_girl_Armor_2.mdl"
"F_Body3""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"
"F_Body4""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"
"F_Body5""models/character/pc/female/customPC/armor3/Malk_girl_Armor_3.mdl"

It should work for all the other clans too,just search for the appropriate line inside the clandoc000.txt and change the lines correspending to the female character to the ones I shared above.For example,for the female Ventrue, search for "Player_Ventrue",for Tremere "Player_Tremere" etc.
Please note that the first time you load an existing save game after making the changes in the clandoc000.txt you may not see the new model,just swap to another armor and you should be ok.
If you encounter any problems with the character's eyes,download this mod:

If the models do not look exactly the same in game as in the screenshots i uploaded,its propably because you are using a different ENB or none at all,my personal favourite is "Embrace the Darkness mod" ,great atmospheric ENB,sharper textures,good quality  shadows..

Some extra stuff you should have in mind when installing:
1)For Antitribu and Final Nights mods(both great)..these skins should work with both mods,the procedure is the same,make the appropriate changes inside the clandoc according to which clan model you are replacing and extract the files inside the mod's corresponding files(more on that bellow)
2)For UP or CQM users...these mods create their own folders inside the game files.You should extract the files I provide inside these folders,not the original "Vampire" folder(see uploaded image)
3)UP and CQM create their own unique shortcuts,if you are planning to run the game with these mods and my skins,use these unique shortcuts and extract accordingly.I saw comments in which the users were mentioning they 've made this mistake
4)DO NOT rename any of my files.For many of you,this whole installation procedure may seem diificult,but it is as simple as it gets.Cant get it to work for all clans otherwise.Thats the reason why the only editing that needs to be done is inside the clandoc.txt.So ,NO RENAMING,or things get messy
5)Be extra careful when editing the clandoc.txt.One simple error and this whole thing gets ruined.

A Youtuber named "Just call me Frosty" was kind enough to post a tutorial installing this skin amongst other mods,for those who have problems,you should check his video out
