True (Hair) Colors

Hello everyone,

With this mod, I have adjusted the color selections for hair and facial hair.


To a large degree, I felt that the game's selection was underwhelming; several options appeared unnatural, and the remnant did not constitute a wide-enough array of those that could be found in life.

My solution can be seen in the images above. For color groups, I opted primarily to scale their vibrancy up or down to create lighter or darker shades. I followed the base game's pattern up until black because I wanted NPCs and player characters to have similar color to those which pre-existed. However, I decided beyond that to restructure the pattern and to completely change colors, as I don't believe any NPCs use a color located after black.

The pattern can be described as:

* Colors 1 - 4: White to Blonde
* Colors 5 - 7: Red to Red-Brown
* Colors 8 - 10: Red-Brown to Dark Brown
* Color 11: Black
* Colors 12 - 14: Dark Grey to Light Grey
* Colors 15 - 18: Dirty Blonde to Brown

Some colors, such as #4 and #13, were from the base game and I either kept them in the same spot or relocated them in the sequence.

I kept the total number of colors at 18, however there are still two slots available before I'd have to edit the character customization window, so if you have any suggestions feel free to let me know.

* What happens to existing characters when I enable this mod?
- Their hair color will reflect the new selection, depending on whatever ID number they have selected. If the mod is disabled, they will return to their old color. I believe colors applied via an RGB selector mod will stay the same.

* Is this mod compatible with others?
- It should be compatible with just about every mod other than those which also change hair color. In those cases, the mod load order can be changed to adjust which colors are enabled. When in doubt, placing this mod near the bottom of the load order should help.

* Why is it that the same color can look slightly different with different hairstyles?
- Each hairstyle uses a material file which calibrates certain values such as roughness and specularity. These values, among others, can slightly affect color, especially at certain angles. The hair and facial hair from Siptah also have a slight tinge of color by default, which is a problem to solve in another mod.

* Why didn't you add [insert color name here] to the selection??!??
- I wanted to stick to colors that at the very least look natural. However, it's possible some may have slipped my mind and as a result have been omitted from the mod. If you can make a decent case as to why it should be added, I'll consider doing so.

Feedback, suggestions, criticism, and so on are appreciated, but remember that I'm under no obligation to act upon them (unless something's broken of course).


I hope you all enjoy, and thank you.
