WHAT THIS DOES:
Adds 3 new head presets based on Karlach and datamined Karlach for Tieflings, Elves, Drow, Half-Elves, and Humans with Body Type 3 (Strong Female).
Includes VFX and custom CC icons.

NOTES:
Want to play Karlach's long lost twin? Kiss Karlach while looking like Karlach? Kiss this version of Karlach while using her vanilla face? Or use a version of that face for your Tav? idk it's your game, do whatever you want. Meshes come from the game's release files, and have been edited to better fit other horn options for Tieflings, and forehead smoothed out for Elves/Drow/Half-Elves and Humans. Textures have been cleaned up to serve as a custom base. Body Type 3 (fem strong) only. This does NOT affect Karlach or other NPCs in any way (though you can use the tiefling heads on her through Appearance Edit Enhanced for Origins).

One file version is for default textures, the other is compatible with Unique Tav Custom Appearance; use only one!
VFX (for things like speak with dead, etc) are enabled, but may override/conflict with other head mods that edit the same files - put this file at the bottom of the load order if you want to prioritize these heads.
i haven't tested everything suuuper thoroughly, so please report any bugs! :}

NEW PRESET OPTIONS:
  • TAVLACH - Karlach's basegame head without scars (may make a scarred version later)
  • TAVLACH ALT - Karlach's head mesh with alternate custom textures
  • TIEFLING FS HEAD A - TIF_FS_NKD_Head_A mesh (datamined pre-release Karlach) with custom textures

TO INSTALL:
Unzip the .pak file and place it into your Mods folder (C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods)
Use BG3 Mod Manager or other mod managers. (i only use bg3mm, so i'm not sure how vortex works!)
Drag mod from right to left column, then SAVE load order to file and EXPORT Order to Game.
!! Set ANIMATION LEVEL OF DETAIL to HIGH in your visual settings to prevent floating heads !!
