» DESCRIPTION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am back with yet another update to my New Dopak Head Mod. I also want to clarify, yes, this is version six, I have three other versions that have been for my exclusive use and not publicly released.The main reason for this update is the staff review I got on a previous version talking about how this mod was based highly off of Shem's Playable Dopak. In truth, it was, and I am disappointed that I did not realize this. So I've started from scratch and completely re-created the mod (...again). Which I think is for the better.
The most noticeable change is going to be the default clothing. It is no longer the Sith Assassin tunic. The new model is the scout clothing model from KOTOR 1 with a whole new texture. The cream colored shirt is now white, the pants have been changed from pale green to blue, the boots have been changed from black with a bit of green to a nice polished black color. The vest has been changed from green to brown with bits of gold added in.
This version only has realistic ds transitions because frankly, I've done all I can do with them. So I decided to leave them out of this version. The ds transitions are not just sith eyes slapped on the normal head texture like I did in the previous versions. There are three total ds transitions; The first transition is pretty much like the base face texture except that the skin is slightly paler and the area around the eyes start to darken. The second transition, the signs start to show. Noticeably pale skin, dark circles around the eyes, eye shadow applied around the sith eyes. The hair and beard are darkened as well. The third transition, skin is paled, hair and beard turn black, very noticeable dark circles around the eyes, brand new glowing sith eyes, with eye shadow applied around the eyes.
Some of the smaller changes are; brand new eyes that were completely made by me for all textures, skin appearance redone by me to make it look like skin and not something with an orange sunburn, the hair and beard are more defined, with a rich, dark brown color to it, teeth are whitened, and the tongue now looks like a tongue.

» FAQ
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q - Why did you make the realistic ds transitions so different this time?
A - Atton Rand. Yes, Atton Rand. It was several of the conversations I had with him on my facial features as I fell to the dark side. "You look like you haven't slept in weeks, or a year." "Yeah? Well your starting to get lines! You could pass for the old witch's son." So I simply made the transitions look like that. Thus, the pale skin, and dark circles. The dark hair and eye shadow was simply my own idea on what I thought would look good.
Q - I have found a bug, what do I do?
