Bijin All in One 2020

Replace Bijin AIO's NPC's hair with KS Hairdos Physics Hair.

A conversion version of Zhalroth's Bijin All-in-One Hair Physics Patch for use with the 2020 Bijin All. I used his options for assigning hair to each NPC and figured out how to safely adjust FaceGeoms by digging through their mod files.

This mod applies hair from KS Hairdos-HDT SMP to every NPC in the main Bijin mod (Warmaidens, Wives, NPCs). This plugin is ESPFE and will not count towards the 255 limit.

Install

Install the main 3 Bijin mods (Warmaidens, Wives, NPCs) and disable or remove their .esp plugins.

Install Bijin All in 2020.

Install KS Hairdos-HDT SMP (and requirements) and make sure the Wigs option in fomod is checked.

If using Vortex and "Deploy Mods When Enabled" is not checked in settings, deploy now to ensure Bijin AIO is in the data folder. This mod includes FOMOD which will automatically select the correct version of the file based on the Bijin_AIO file it detects.

Make sure this mod overrides any other mod that provides FaceGeom files.

Make sure no plugins that change the same NPC are loaded after Bijin AIO.

Which Bijin AIO version?

It will work with any major file in Bijin All in One 2020, including the Serana Valerica version, but currently it does not include Serana or Valerica. Serana in particular will take some time as there are several different versions of her, all of which require their own modified FaceGeom, each of which needs to be added to fomod individually so you can choose your own version.

compatibility

Compatible with almost everything compatible with Bijin All in One 2020. The NPC records are unchanged, only Bijin's assigned Naked Armor.

troubleshooting

Blackface - If you are encountering the Blackface error for Bijin NPCs, your mod is not set up correctly, or

Allow other things to override this mod's FaceGeom mesh

Either

Allows another plugin to be loaded after Bijin AIO and overwrite its changes to the NPC's appearance.

Bald NPC - The FaceGeom meshes included in this mod are modified versions of the Bijin FaceGeom files: they make the hair invisible so it does not appear overlapping with the physical hair added by the plugin. If you have a bald NPC, or your Bijin AIO* is wrong, there is no Bijin AIO (make sure you have deployed with Vortex), disable plugins for this mod, or allow other plugins to load after this and overwrite my changes. The latter will require patching in xEdit yourself.

*Do not use the AIO plugin from the optional files section of the main Bijin 3 mods. If you choose to use this AIO, use Zhalroth's mod instead.

Double Hair - If you see both physical hair added by this mod and non-physical hair for NPCs, the corresponding Bijin mod or another mod has been allowed to override this mod's FaceGeom mesh.

performance

I can't guarantee this won't cause performance issues. SMP Physics has a high running cost, and adding SMP hair to multiple NPCs has the potential to be added relatively quickly.

If you want to manually assign hairstyles to certain NPCs with this mod, you can use the console to add wigs to their inventory.
