Diverse player character appearances

Based on the concept of "player customization" of the famous module, the Forger file has been completely remade. Applicable to versions 1.5.3, 1.5.4, and 1.5.6. New parameters and possibilities have been added, providing ready-to-apply texturing of faces and bodies. Designed to fit the original head and body without neck seams.

Player Variations

🎨 **Inspiration and Acknowledgments**

The way this mod modifies game resources is inspired by hypermorphic.

My work wouldn't be complete without hypermorphic's Forger Manager and Player Customizations mods as templates.

Thanks to all the creators who shared information about mods for Ubisoft games, especially the authors of ACViewer and Blacksmith.

📸 **Welcome to share your screenshots! **

All of my screenshots were taken during testing, sorry I didn't have time to take photos specifically for the mod setup.

✨ Alexios Style

• **Alexios Hairstyles** - Any male/female hair style in the list can be used.
• **Alexios Eyebrows** - Only Darius and Aita variants work properly. All eyebrows from the NPC template system are invisible in cutscenes. As an alternative, you can use the LOD1 versions of these brows if their look suits your taste.
• **Alexios Beard** - Added a mustache-less variant, as well as ShortDense. To turn off the original 3D beard, use Darius brows (or any custom brows). The original beard and eyebrows are in the same grid.
• **Alexios original hair color/original stubble and eyebrow color** - New colors added: black, dark brown, brown, white. Only works with original hair.
• **Alexios Age Strength** - Same as hypermorphic's mod, but adds some possible values.
• **Alexios Idle Mood** - Personally think it is suitable for screenshot photography. Same as hypermorphic's mod.
• **Alexios Body Skin Tone - Melanin Strength (Color)/Hue/Saturation/Hemoglobin** - These four options are consistent with the in-game one. Mainly “melanin intensity” – shades from light to dark. Melanin shades – ranging from rosy to yellowish tones, visible on lighter colors. Saturation – Best checked in game. Hemoglobin - when adjusted to maximum, wrists, nose, and lips will turn red.

🎭 Alexios head texture reworked

• **Alexios Head Smooth Normal Map** - Removes facial wrinkles and makes the face smoother.
• **Smoother wrinkle normal map for Alexios' head** - A second texture that affects wrinkles when in mood. Makes face smoother.

🖼️ Alexios head diffuse reflection map (choose one)

• **Alexios head diffuse map (mixed with Cassandra / Hermes / Taletos / B03_B01 / B04_B01) ** - Facial texture variant to get rid of the sickly look of the original. Choose one.

🎭 2D drawing of Alexios head eyebrows and stubble mask (choose one)

• **Alexios Head Mask - No Stubble** - No 2D drawn stubble on the face. Give your face a clean shave.
• **Alexios Head Mask - No Stubble and No Eyebrows (for use with custom eyebrows)** - As above + Removes 2D drawn eyebrows. This is useful if you want to apply custom brows that don't match the original 2D brows.
• **Alexios Head Mask - No Stubble No Shade No Brows (for use with custom brows)** - As above + remove eyeshadow. Completely optional.
• **Alexios head masks - Adonis stubble, Leonidas beard, Pericles beard, Socrates beard, Clean Shave, Clean Shave (slightly darker)** - All of these masks are partially or fully taken from NPCs. Check out the game to see which one works for you. Some mattes look good as an alternative to the original stubble. Some were paired with matching beards.

💪 Alexios body texture

• **Alexios Body - Smooth and Clean (Normal Map Rework)** - Upscaled using ESRGAN to make it smooth and hairless. If you want more muscle, check out the mods on.

✨ Cassandra Style

• **Cassandra Hairstyle** - Any male/female hairstyle in the list can be used. A few new additions - young Cassandra's hair style is really cool.
• **Cassandra Eyebrow** - Some named NPC variants work well. All eyebrows from the NPC template system are …
