About this mod

Adds piercings and earrings used by NPCs to the character creator.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Thanks to jerinski, Seybri, and ro for taking pictures for this mod! 💖

Basically what the title says: this mod adds piercings and earrings used by NPCs to the character creator so you can use them on your own characters. Some are regular piercing sets using vanilla meshes, whereas others are entirely new meshes that aren't available to the player in the vanilla game. The sets included are the following:

  • Guild Member (Zenovia)
  • Ecce Dominus (Cazador)
  • Mother of Magic (Mystra)
  • Flaming Fist (Blaze Elin)
  • The Comet (Orpheus)

If there are any other NPCs with unique piercings that I missed, feel free to let me know! I won't be including Gale's earring since it can already be found in Trips' Accessory Collection.

Besides the mod itself, I've also made a modder's resource for anyone interested in using these piercings in their own set! It's downloadable under Optional Files.

HOW TO INSTALL (AND UNINSTALL)
You need Mod Fixer for this mod to work.
I highly recommend installing this with the BG3 Mod Manager. You can technically use Vortex, too, but there might be some issues; so, if in doubt, use BG3MM. I can't provide any help or support with installing this mod through Vortex or manually, since I don't use these methods myself.

To install: Download the .zip file, extract it, drop the .pak file onto the BG3MM, move it to the Active Mods column, and you're done!
To uninstall: Simply move the mod to the Inactive Mods column or delete it.

While it hasn't happened to anyone else that tested this mod, I ran into a weird problem where this mod only worked if I loaded it after all of the other piercing mods I have. If you install the mod and the piercings aren't showing up, try doing the same. Your load order should look like this, for example:




KNOWN ISSUES

  • While it's not exactly the fault of this mod, the piercings might look wonky or misplaced on some modded heads; if they do, it's because they're lacking a skeleton base. This all depends on the mod creator and if they've made custom bases for their heads or not; I won't be able to offer any solution if it happens.
  • Some of the piercings, like Cazador and Mystra's, have their own custom material and textures, so mods intended to recolor the vanilla piercings (like Ghouls Vanilla Piercing Recolors) won't work on them. I won't be recoloring said piercings, so please don't ask for it.
