  • **Unzip file**: Unzip the downloaded compressed package.
  • **Place files**: Place **all three files** in each compressed package into the following directory:

⚠️ Compatibility Notes

  • This mod is incompatible with any mod that replaces the male player preset.
  • Optional NPC head replacement is not compatible with any mod that replaces preset 14.
  • The optional Ominis skin texture is not compatible with any mod that modifies skin tone (e.g. makeup, whitening, darkening). If a different skin mod is installed, it may result in mismatched hand skin tones.
  • As with all head models, the model may appear to wear out under certain facial expressions.
  • **File numbering description**: The file numbering of preset 1 starts from 231, preset 2 is 232, preset 14 is 244, and so on. The "All in One" integration file uses number 230, and the optional skin texture uses number 229.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
