If you're tired of John's old, weird face

Clean Red Harlow – John’s face model remake

✨ Module introduction

Have you ever wondered, "Why does John look so weird and old? Why does he have such deep nasolabial folds? So many wrinkles?" I thought the same!

To solve this problem I used the Red Harlow mod and really like how John used the Red Harlow face mold. But I found this wasn't perfect enough (plus some texture issues), so I decided to improve it.

🎯 Main features

  • **Younger and Fresher**: Make John look younger and more energetic
  • **Wrinkle Reduction**: Removes some visible wrinkles
  • **Improvement of nasolabial folds**: Nasolabial folds that are particularly prominent when underweight have been removed
  • **Repair Neck Texture**: Neck texture is more natural
  • **Refined Normal Maps**: Removed old "ghost" scars on cheeks and nose, as well as new scars on nose

🔮 Future Plans

Once I learn how to work with the RDR2 model, the plan is to make a new facial mesh and fix the beard to accommodate Harlow's scar.

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.
