[K1] PFHA01 head without hair covering eyes/forehead

[EbonHawkStowaway999]

Hello. I would like to ask whether any experienced modders here could make the default Asian female head PFHA01 without hairs covering her right eye and forehead:

I'm pretty sure that's a separate dangly mesh (flops around), so you could disable the render flag or delete it easily enough. Might look a little weird though.

Unfortunately, apart from text editing, I know next to nothing about KOTOR 1 modding, that's why I'm asking for help here. I hope someone will be able to release an updated version that neither has those meshes nor looks weird. I like that face, but those hairs covering so much of her forehead have always irritated me and made me pick some other face during the character creation. I'm surprised no one has made or requested such a mod in almost 23 years this game has been around.

Somewhat to my surprise, it actually doesn't seem too bad without it.

No gap needing to be filled, which makes things easy. Try this and see how it looks in-game:

Thank you for removing the bangs, DarthParametric. I've checked the skin in the game, and I now see that removing all the bangs changes her default look too much. Could you please remove only the lower part that covers her right eye and the one that falls between her eyes, but keep the rest of the bangs?

The bangs are just a plane with an alpha mask. You can edit the texture yourself to change it if you want.
