@ lady aly : i tweaked the mouth a bit i expanded both upper and lower lips the difference was very minimal. I'm still working on it to make the mouth very different from before. What would you recommend on the mouth? I'm not yet an expert in using the toolset.

I have no toolset - so I can only give advice about what I see. Its anyway a bit hard to see, a bit too dark and the face is too far away.

@LadyAly: well spotted, don't know why but most nose shapes look messed up after toolset export. I like the first one better too, that was done with in-game CC. The toolset version is missing those specific cheek muscles. Anyway, are you aware of a method to soften the eyebags?

@Petehog: thx. Well, I fancy it as it represents my personal beauty ideal. Plus, it's standing out of the common.
Oh, interesting, could you tell me where to find that mod? That would be the most efficient way to recreate her.

This way you can recreate her without all the work and hassle.

What?! Finally a mod which allows me to make a rough chara in CC, then transport to the Toolset for fine-tuning?!

My long awaited request has been granted!!

Where oh where is this mod oh Petehog?!???


The link is in the above post. It doesn't change it into an .mrh.

But it changes it into a .mor file. I'm pretty stoked because some of my best files I've ever made were trapped in save-games so I'm releasing them in a mod I'm making.

And thanks for the feedback. Always welcome ^_^
I play around with her when I get home!

@Petehog: thanks very much, will certainly experiment with it. I foresee loads of my time spent :-)



@Elps: the teaser is appealing, pls do carry on. Hope you'll make some full-face tats as well, btw I don't mind if the chin is covered on females. No worries, I didn't have a clue about the toolset a month ago, and thought the Alpha channel is flowing in South America. You'll get there. Offering a sort of solution, I could whip up a (or more) maori style scalp tattoo.

That would be cool - thanks :) Maori & South Pacific peoples don't traditionally wear scalp tattoos however I'm trying to avoid anything that looks too traditional so I don't offend anyone. In game, a scalp tattoo of that kind of style would be awesome.

slightly not related to anything but has anyone noticed how different the eyes appear in the toolset vs. in-game?



slightly frustrating.

Haven't posted here in a long time... Here's Aria, my new City elf.

Image IPB

And now in daylight:^^

I'll see if I can get any other decent ingame screenshots, but so far the CC has delivered the best frontal shot yet, even though it is pretty dark.

EDIT:

And just for the heck of it: Damian, another City elf. To tell the truth I only created him to try out the male version of the City elf origin. He looks very young, and quite feminine (and oddly enough bears a certain resemblance to Nelaros, which was quite unintentional actually^^):

Image IPB

And a close-up:

Anyway, as soft as he looks now, I think he'll toughen up along the way... :D

The CC does give great close-ups because it's so maneuverable. However, it also distorts the eyes by making the right eye higher (and slightly different shape) than the left eye! This seems to disappear once in-game. Your pics showcase all that pretty well.

But beyond that, your charas look very polished. Both seem to have a clear personality, making them easy to RP.

I know... it's terrible,  isn't it? Also this stupid Toolset nose issue, it drives me nuts! The data transfer overall doesn't seem to be quite intact, especially when creating chars in the  CC. Not only tattoos, also eye and ear adjustments change by themselves. It's really frustrating.

I still don't know if I should take that as a compliment^^ If I wanted exotic characters, I'd probably post them in the character show-off. These two are both just your odd City elves. From a game perspective, she is supposed to be quite pretty (Vaughn mentions it often enough, and bastardly though he is, I guess he knows a good-looking woman when he sees one). And he is just... young and inexperienced, I guess. Seeing as he can't even stand up properly to Vaughn, I think the look quite suits the City elf. Especially as all the other male City elves running around the Alienage aren't very manly, either...

I still can't see that think Mlai is talking about. I see a fine face, with shadows and angles creating some distortion effects in some pics.



The nose issue is what I said before somethign you can work around. Not changing the sliders under Features -> Nose or changing them all the way imports the nose as it should look. Same with eyes but well, that's just boring. I have never experienced ears or tattoo changing :S What do you mean by that?

You can see it in the topmost pic: the left eye is higher than the right ;)

The noses aren't really that great of a problem, since you can always tweak them later on  in the CC. It's just having to do that at all which gets on my nerves.
As for the tattoos: the first elf I created  with the TS had an elaborate facial tattoo. This simply didn't import to the game's CC as it should. It was okay when you chose a City elf, but when you chose a Dalish it simply didn't show up at all. This happened to me twice with two seperate characters.

In the downloadable CC, some of the chars I made were completely changed from one moment to the next. You remember the City elf I made a while ago (I posted her in this thread)? Well, when I load the CC now her eyes are now much smaller, her ears aswell; they are also both so deformed that I can't get them back to their original shape. I don't know what caused this, but it's a pain, since it's happened to a few of my CC characters. I'm glad I still have a savegame of that City elf playthorugh, otherwise I'd have lost her forever. :(

@Elps: yes, I know it wouldn't be true to the traditions. Also, if I'm correct, the way the hair is worn has large significance for Maori people. From a technical point of view, creating hairstyles requires proficiency with a program like 3dsmax, and the process consumes lots of time. Another option would be to request it from kzelsama, the author of more hairstyles. At any rate, when a scalp tat is ready, I'll ask for your judgement before releasing.

@VirusCat&Caladhiel: thx for those tips, encountered similar problems with noses and eyes. After a while you just get to feel how changing features in the toolset affect the looks of your in-game face I guess.

I can see how it can look like the eye is higher up if you focus on just the eyes. But the face doesn't look distorted if you look at the whole head. IMHO anyway ;D



The tat is a problem because the autoadding of tattoos on Dalish and Duster. The tat that the CC is adding is replacing or distoring the one you choose for the preset. I never import my morphs nowadays. It's just easier to create some fugly thing in the CC ansd then replace the headmorph completely with the perfected one from the toolset :)

I love this one. Reminds me of the elf I made on my 360 version before the disk was completely murdered. :(

I like your elf in that outfit Petehog. She seems to have a softer face than most of your chars. I guess that's something I subconciously do with my designs, I like softer faces :)

This is my character for PC. Am trying to figure out how to get a close up pic I have onto a forum post. However you won't find my girl running around skimply clad armor or stilletto heeled thigh high boots. (kudos to those who like that look) For me less is more. I like the armor I wear, to me it says sexy, sensual, strong and I can still kick your ass. :o)

Elf pic coming soon

Here's Nanethiel, my city elf which I just started. I'm really happy with the way she came out!

Image IPB


And that's how she looks ingame:
Image IPB

Sliders settings here.

My problem with elves is that when it comes to create one in any game I look at them through Tolkien's model, as the immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. The elves in DA are vastly different though, they age and die like humans, they are treated like something worse than humans too. Who ever saw an elf with such red hair in Middle Earth? ;D
