All I'm seeing so far is a skin and hair style change for your family.
I'm guessing it's because he's just using the presets and not editting other things. So just as Hawke is in preset #1, so will the Hawke family all be in preset #1 mode. I imagine if you made further tweaks on the preset, the family would reflect the preset but incorperate the changes to Hawke.
Does that make sense?
Edit: Nvm I had to look closer, it's very subtle.

So it's basically a crap-shoot as to what family you'll get? That's the first 'real' "it sucks" news about DAII I've heard.monkeytsuna wrote...
I'm choosing a preset #5 for my experimentation, this fella here
and I alter everything I can about him. Hair, hair colour, eyes, bla bla.
Ok, that is one ugly Hawke. Mission accomplished.
This is the original result...
and apparently... what's changed is...
only Carver's hair!!! Hahahahah Oh, and Bethany's and MamaHawke also
So probably, this *MIGHT* (and I repeat, might) not depends on the preset all along but rather on your hairstyle that will affect your family's hairstyle (because their face is going to be the same anyway)
I would assume now the only thing affecting your family members from your CC choices are hairstyle and skin tones.
Someone please make a diagram for every hair... I'm just too tired right now...
PS. Gotta go to work now. Ciao guys!!

Man, gotta give it to you Monkeytsuna. You're giving your early-gameplay time for us to see what Character Creation would affect our siblings so we wouldn't end up with some butt-ugly companion. And going through characters must take a lot of time on you and you seem like a busy person.
I salute you, bravo. *applaud* and Thank you
Thank you too for reading.
Ok, don't panic yet people. I'm sure there's a formula to get the companion looks we all want.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, it seems that:
Hawke's preset -> the family's faces
Hawke's hairstyle -> the family's hairstyles
Hawke's skintone -> the family's skintone.
So, not a crap-shoot, just complicated.
EDIT: Oh, and thanks to monkeytsuna! This could be useful.

Yes, you've got it right.
If I remember correctly, so far, I think there are 6 different sets of hairstyle for your family.

Yes, you've got it right.The only question now is what hairstyle in CC corresponds to your family's hairstyle.

I'm curious if skin color could affect hairstyles to an extent.
For example if male preset #2 had been white, would Carver still have 'locks' ?
I take it it's not possible to quicksave until you reach the CC so you have to go through the prelude everytime ?

Hmmmm, personally, I don't think skin color will affect your companion's hairstyle. I'd be glad to further investigate on that though. I'm working right now so I guess you'll have to wait for a while.
PS. Yes, I have to go through the prelude everytime. It's getting bothersome. Hahahaha

I bet, removing the prelude will be the second thing modded. The first of course being a female nude mod.monkeytsuna wrote...

And what I meant by crap-shoot is, so you're basically stuck with certain family hairstyles depending on what hair you choose. I can imagine the PC clones already, just to get a nice looking family. Or a nice looking PC and family be damned!

To avoid this hair atrocity: it was the asian preset model (modified heavily use'n bethany's default hairstyle & the lightest of the dark skin tones, this axis of hair evil is an abomination! avoid at all costs!!

I need some way of making Carver look attractive while retaining the default Marian Hawke face.
I think this goes to show what I've said all along: mages suck.
Change your Hawke to one of the others then go to the Emporium to change back to the default. Of course, I'd rather like what the Ogre did to him when playing a rogue or warrior. Good riddance to Carver and his emo-girly-man-crybaby-spoiled brat ways

And why is it interesting?
Using darker skin colour preset and setting the color to causcasian, I've got asian skin color and facial structure for Bethany.

It didn't for me. I went with Default Hawke up until the BE, then switched to my current avatar (is preset #4) and Bethany remained Bethany #1.

I don't think I missed a preset, but that hair hasn't turned up at all. Do I have to pick a specific hairdo for my Hawke, or what? Does anyone know what the requirements are?
EDIT:
Oh, nevermind. Got it. Male preset #7 (in the pic) has the 7th hairdo from the right, so I just picked the 7th from the right for Lady Hawke as well.
