TOR Ports: Meetra Surik AKA Jedi Exile Female Player Head for TSL 1.0.1

Much like Meetra Surik from Star Wars the Old Republic

*Cough* you mean Mako lol *cough* lol that's who the character model was used for when bioware first used her, *should know because she played a bounty hunter and had a rocking good time with a very interestingly confused girl named Mako* lol, I honestly didn't know they reused her appearance as well, course I tend to play Sith Empire side so ehh lol. Wonderful job as always lol

The Jedi Entity shares a head with Kira Carsen (head_human_bfn_caucasian_a04). Mako uses a completely different head ( head_human_bfa_asian_a01).

Huh, odd because Meetra and Mako look an awful lot a like at first glance or so, other than than the the little cyborg addition.

It's nice to see a female player head that doesn't look ugly AF. The skin could use some more details though. Maybe you could try baking the normal into the diffuse texture? 

Heya, I'm an amateur when it comes to mods. I'm using the TSLRCM + M4-78 from the Steam Workshop. What is the workshop folder you mentioned?

The combined one (English) should be \steamapps\workshop\content\208580\1402798020\

208580 is TSL's game ID. The following number is the Workshop ID of the specific mod, which you can see in the URL of the mod's page (eg. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1402798020).

Hmmmmm I'm still having trouble

Your issues are almost guaranteed to be due to using Workshop mods. If you are using anything else from the Workshop aside from TSLRCM, your install is likely screwed.

I installed this mod and the head is missing in the character creation menu. She appears headless. How do I fix this?

You broke your install by the sounds of it. Probably a hard overwrite of heads.2da by another mod.

I keep getting this error in the game where it'll initially work, but then the save with my character that has this head will get corrupted for some reason. I tested it by attempting to create a new game with the same head and it appears headless in the character designer. The texture seems to "delete" itself for some reason. Could someone explain to me how to fix this?

It's not a texture issue. The head missing is either a model issue or a modified/missing heads.2da. Are you using the Steam version of the game and Workshop mods?

I'm using the workshop version, specifically Hessat Hunter's TSLRCM + M478EP version. I've reinstalled both it and this mod multiple times now but still keep getting the error. When I selected it and launched a new game, my character is basically invisible in-game and doesn't appear at all. What exactly can be done, and is this mod known to be incompatible with anything else?

I did notice that you said other mods from the workshop would cause issues for it. Would the issues be fixed if I deleted or unsubscribed from these other workshop mods, or would I need to re-install the TSLRCM + M478EP?

I went ahead and did a clean install, avoided installing any mods from workshop besides TSLRCM + M478EP and it worked. Thanks!

You shouldn't ever use Workshop mods really (and the Aspyr version is garbage anyway), but if you must then only install TSLRCM. But once you do that, all mods must be installed in that mod's Workshop folder, not the game install folder. That's why it broke last time. Aspyr's Workshop implementation creates a cascading hierarchy based on Workshop mod install order, so if a recent mod has a heads.2da then any other heads.2da in an earlier mod folder or the base game folder will be ignored.

Noted. This site as well as GameFront and NexusMods are the main sites that I use. I will be sure to give you credit for the mod in my playthrough series for this game.

*sigh...i know you've made phenomenal effort really you have, but for me this just isn't enough, the hair needs to be platinum blonde like it is is swtor otherwise it just seem like all for not is there really nothing you can do about this ?

I downloaded manually and Im trying to install. I have the TSLCM but I cant find its workshop to install this head model into instead of the game base folder. Help please?

Did you actually install TSLRCM from the Workshop? If so, it will be in the same Steam library where the game is installed, but I'm guessing you don't have any additional libraries and are just using the default Steam installation. That would presumably make the location of Workshop TSLRCM on Windows:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\208580\485537937\

assuming you are using the English version.

If you are using the combined TSLRCM and M4-78 (again, in English), then you would instead use:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\208580\1402798020\

For non-English versions of the mod you'll need to get their specific mod ID from their Workshop page. And if you are using Mac or Linux you'll have to Google where to find Steam's install location.

I didnt install it from Workshop. I downloaded it from here, deadlystream. And I looked in the content folder under workshop and neither of those numbers can be found there. All I see is: 486299564

1472956376

1483835951

1529910039

1834498792

Your game is broken. Don't use mods from the Workshop.

again, Im not using steam workshop. I used this 

TSL Restored Content Mod - Mods - Deadly Stream

Then why would even be looking for a Workshop folder to install into? Just install it into the game folder as usual.

I feel stupid, I was overthinking it all 😅 thanks for opening my eyes.
