Unlike Mass Effect, Dragon Age doesn't have that neat little bar at the bottom for a face code that you can save and keep and reuse. So, when I make a face in the character creator I really like, I have to try my best to remake that face- which can be frustrating. So, why not give us the option to import a face into the character creator as a preset? Maybe it could be added as a function to the keep somehow, if not the vanilla CC?
Saving A Character's Appearance As A Preset

Much this. Some way to be able to import face settings from an existing character would be a life saver when trying to reroll or just get out of the CC without clown makeup or horrible feature discrepancies between in-game and cutscenes.

I support this request. At some point, I'm going to want to reroll my first Inquisitor (<-- The guy in profile pic) and have him be my 'canon' Inquisitor. But I'll also want to make all of the 'best' decisions for that character. This first time, I'm sure I'm making 'mistakes' or missing a few things, so I'll definitely want to roll him again and do it 'right' that time. But that means that I'm going to have to recreate him from scratch and I don't the sliders. It will probably bug me a little every time there's a cut scene because he'll look a little different than how I remember him looking. But if I could save him as a pre-set, I could just load him back up and be good to go.

Agreed.

And then every future Bioware game should do this from here out, so people don't have to keep rerolling because the face looks different in game.

Happily do I support this idea.
EDIT: moreso since my Cadash's files (all 7 of them) got corrupted. As it stands, what a person would have to do if they wanted to recreate a face perfectly is jot down every single detail.
"okay, so move the nose slider four paces from the right, the nose bridge width about thirteen paces up and seven across from the left..." and you get the picture.
That is tedious beyond hell, and I'd almost argue it's kinda insulting to expect us to remember our characters perfectly and to not have added this feature. but then, I'm in a pissy mood right now.
90 ****** hours spent in that game just went down the toilet.

Support this wholeheartedly, especially since it's always the little details that keep me from enjoying a face and restarting. Screenshots can only go so far I'm afraid. ):

Fully support adding this feature. As is, the closest thing we have to such a feature is to keep the very first "clean" save with that character.
Also, I fully support allowing a third-party hair creation tool. ![]()

Bit of an oversight to be honest. Easily resolved though, if they care enough.

If you're on PC I suggest taking screenshots of your sliders. Print screen works for me.
Although, I still think they should have a mirror of transformation and ability to save faces.

I support this idea, also PLEASE include this for Hawkes.
Like I only have one Hawke to import, and I don't want to redo her face in every single Inquisition-playthrough

Yes this and change the lighting for the cc. Spent 30 mins creating a character. went into the game got all the way to the ladders (about an hour) then looked at my quizzy and had to start again.

Yep, the CC lighting and rendering is very misleading. My character renders like that very, very seldomly, and definitely not in the normal in-game camera in any lighting conditons. It’d be nice to be able to transplant the character in various areas in the CC to get the feel for how they’ll look in-game, and look for a compromise.
But that’s another thing altogether ![]()

I came to the forums today to ask specifically about this. I have the same desire as others in this thread and I plan on playing one of my Inquisitors again and having her be my perfectionist/canon one...but it seems like my only option is to use that first save I made with her and start from there. I'm pretty 1) annoyed by having to do that and 2) concerned that it would cause complications with Keep etc.
Has anybody done this with success? Does the Keep update to reflect the new choices if you start from level one on the same character and override your saves/choices etc?

This would be so very nice. + the mirror thing from DA2 so you can tweak little things that bug you after you've seen the full range of expressions.

I FreshRevenge agree with this thread completely and urge Bioware to look into this. I created my lovely mage in my first playthrough. I am on my 5th playthrough now but would like to reuse my character down below to make her a warrior instead on my 6th playthrough or when all the dlc comes out for it.

This kind of feature would be great for those of us who get hit with banter issues on certain characters too. It always seems like my best looking Inquisitors are the ones who get hit with a silent party.

Anyone know if there are there any plans to do this after patch 3? I want to play my Adaar across classes with different keep states and I can't understand why I couldn't simply save a preset face from jump.
I have an early save I can start from to do a perfectionist run, but it's set to hard and I need to do it on nightmare to get that stupid all the trophies trophy.

Glad i found this thread. I was going to write the same thing.
This actually stopped me from replaying the game. I wanted to play my exact same character but on a harder setting, and I really didn't want to try and remake the exact same face. I spent at least 30 minutes creating him the first time!
Face save feature please!
