Some of my own scar edits are also available for download. The first one is inspired by Resurrected Jon Snow by Bella Bergolts and the second one is just some random burns I thought would fit well for Visenya! (needs some tweaking on the jaw, it is kind of choppy) and also includes my slightly edited base game scar for Freyja to be more prominent on her blind eye.

Thank you to HeartsWires for permitting me to upload these as I used some of their files as a base!

The scar file goes in your GENERATED folder. It will replace scars 7, 8 and 9. If you would like me to switch the scar slot let me know!

My ReShade Preset  (Baratheon)

None of my preview photos are edited, these are direct screenshots from my game using otis tools camera and my reshade preset.

FOR CERTAIN HAIRS AND STUFF TO SHOW UP WITH THIS YOU NEED  Patches for CC Races.lsx - PUT IT AT THE BOTTOM OF UR LOAD ORDER

IF YOUR EXPRESSIONS SEEM "TOO MUCH" OR TOO MANY EXPRESSION WRINKLES, USE THIS MOD. I USE VANILLA-LIKE.

KNOWN ISSUES/WEIRD STUFF TO FIX

• Some piercings may not fit well.

• The male tieflings have a weird neck seam at the back idk how to fit it properly in blender (still)

• Some base game tiefling horns may not connect with the forehead for my male tieflings, but most modded horns work well.

• There might be some buggy eye action going on, I haven't seen it myself but please let me know if there is. Some of the lashes do not follow the eyelid when blinking, but it isn't super noticeable.

• Some of their eyes don't close fully, I can't do anything about this if I want to keep their eye shapes the way they are.

• The teeth might be aligned weirdly; I tested what I could so let me know if the teeth look fucked up.

• IGNORE the neck seam on the fem tieflings in my screenshots, my tiefling body textures are glithced and idk why lol. The neck matches with the proper skin textures.
