FACEGEN ------------------------------------------------- --------------------

Facecode Generator for M&B Warband

Overview--------------------------------------------------------------------------

This program allows users to generate Warband-compatible face codes to help create NPC faces, faction-specific faces within given constraints, random master faces, etc. I primarily developed this tool to keep nemchenk's "Ethnic Troops" mini-mod intact while adding/changing the face textures in the mod.

Features - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -----------------

• Generates a single face code, a single random face code, multiple face codes with a faction prefix (i.e. .swadian_face_younger_0) and multiple random face codes
• GUI interface (nice I'm usually a *nix command line guy ^^)
• Formatted output to text file for easy copy-pasting or parsing for further automation

download---------------- -------------------------------------------------- ---

Install------------------------------------------ -----------------------

• Download the .zip file, unzip it somewhere (doesn't matter)

/ TCL

/ TK

_bz2.pyd

_ctypes.pyd

_hashlib.pyd

_tkinter.pyd

facegen.exe -> main executable

python34.dll

tcl86t.dll

tk86t.dll

unicodedata.pyd

The other files are required because this .exe is built from a python script using cx_Freeze. Most Warband modders probably have python 2.7x installed, while this script requires python 3.4x, so an .exe is probably the easiest way to distribute it. The python script source can be found on github (see bottom of this article).

Value/Range Explanation-------------------------------------------------------

To use facegen you need to know what assets are in the module (face/hair/beard/etc). These instructions serve as a quick guide to finding these values ​​and how to use them in facegen (note: you must have the module system for this module! I won't answer any questions about how to find it in the .txt file, but it should work)

In addition to "custom code list",

All fields are required (this will be fixed in a future version, no time now) which means you should always put something in each field, even if the value may not be used depending on the chosen schema.

name

Replica ID

These are just identifiers, how these fields are used depends on the selected mode:

Single code: the output is shown as -> name = 0x [facecode]

Single code random: the output is shown as -> name = 0x [facecode]

Multicode: The output appears as -> name + default_string + replica_id = 0x [facecode]

Multi-code random: the output is shown as -> code_list_string = 0x [facecode]

facial morph code

This is just a face code that you get in the game (start the game in edit mode, go to the character face, press Ctrl+E, click on the face code at the top, then copy and past to enter this field).

This face code is only used for face setting data, ie. Eye width, temple width, etc. This generator doesn't randomize the values, too many monsters.

The intention here is that you can sculpt a base face using the game editor and then use that facemorph data as a base to generate different variations with different skin/hair/beards/etc. This must be a hexadecimal value (0xnnnnnnnn...)

hair color

I did some testing in the game and it looks like the value is always between 0x00 and 0x3f, so set the upper/lower limits somewhere in this range. I recommend using hexadecimal values.

face code

• Go to your module Module System folder and open module_skins.py, find the face texture section which should look like this: 2)
