are there any mods for more character customization

[Teddy]

like hair/beard, faces, etc? :)

It is called Barbie. Look it up.

[Grumpy Old Dude]

no, there are not. The D.M. (game???) are not set up for modding.

There is a community expansion mod that will be re-released under the name "Unfinished Business" about 2 weeks after the next DLC comes out. Right now, the mod has been taken down because the DLC is so close to release (11/14). It is hosted on Nexus at https://www.nexusmods.com/solastacrownofthemagister/mods/212

You can still install it from the github page here: https://github.com/SolastaMods/SolastaUnfinishedBusiness/releases

Be aware that you will need to uninstall it to use the game update that comes on the 14th. Any characters you make using features from the mod will likely be unplayable as will any game saves.

That being said, I did most of the cosmetic stuff in the mod and the options include unlocking NPC faces that were in the game but marked as not player selectable (you may wind up looking like a bartender or major NPC), adding some skin colors, hair colors, eye colors, making Sorcerer origin markings available to every character, and allowing Sorcerers to not have those markings. Also some options to make the hideous Empress Garb magic armor look like a different armor. I am not an animator or 3D artist, so with the exception of colors which can be easily created everything is about more options of what to do with the assets already in the game.

Grumpy Old Dude made an excellent tutorial video on the current version of the mod, so I am not sure what he means by "not set up for modding" unless he is talking about the fact that we haven't added any new assets.

Thanks for the endorsement on the video.

What I mean by not setup for modding; is that the DM doesnt allow for creating new assets, faces, textures, etc. Like in the Bethesda Construction Kits for Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim; where even the default skins/textures can be modified and GREATLY improved upon. (As was done by numerous modders)

Dwarves looks good to me, much of the rest I've been able to find at least some combination that looks good enough, but I've been unable to make a male human that doesn't look like he has a lower IQ than a tree branch with which he was also beaten around the face.

Thanks a Bunch, I really enjoy that asset. Didn't care for some of the sorc skins, Made a nice fake tiefling. Glad to see it will be back.

I've been playing Lost Valley with characters and saves from the community expansion mod and don't want to delete anything at this point. Just to clarify, but as long as I don't update, I can continue to play right? Understanding that once I do update, those characters and saves are useless...

Yes, don't update the game (turn off Steam auto-update) and don't update the mod if prompted either.

[domran]

Thank you!

[domran]

Well, I thought I turned off auto update but...it updated lol. To uninstall the mod do I just delete the contents of the mod folder?

[Grumpy Old Dude]

before you do that, can you rollback to the pre INS version?

[Berserkr]

weird my update is still queued and hasn't updated yet, gonna let it go when I go take a nap, strange domran that yours would update with them being shut off
