I am now dabbling in modding for ME2 and I'm starting out with this mod! Like the LE3 version, it contains eighteen new shorter hairstyles for Femshep by the amazing
MoooD from the sims 4.
There were just never any converted hairs (and all available ones are absolutely
amazing) that fit my personal headcanon of a shorter-haired Shep (bc, ya know, it just...suits her). I remedied that with these hairs.
Moood allows conversions for their meshes and so I converted some of their amazing meshes for Femshep. Enjoy :) You can find more images on my other mods of most of these hairstyles if you want to see more examples. While, yes, they're LE3 versions, they look the same ingame for LE2 :)
Hairs converted:
Buffalo,
Candy,
Cotton,
Even,
Feather,
Hay,
Hydr,
Jellyfish,
Low,
Radiant,
Rug,
Seahorse,
Still,
Sunset,
Tailor,
Victor,
Wan, and
Zion.
Please don't ask me to edit the meshes or textures because I can't and won't. Do not ask if I'll convert the hairs to ME1. I don't play ME1 and I fear modding that game so I won't be.
ISSUESI tried to make sure to choose the styles that didn't have too many transparency issues, but it's not perfect. I typically only use darker hair colors so it wasn't much of a problem for me but I wanted to mention that beforehand for those who like to use lighter hair colors, like white or blonde hair. I haven't really tested any of the lighter hair colors so there may be transparency issues. Nothing I can do about that.
REQUIREMENTS, COMPATIBILITY, & PATCHESThere are no requirements other than downloading
TSE and it shouldn't be incompatible with anything. Patches aren't required for anything.
To switch the hairs manually with
TSE, here are the codes for the Hair Mesh and Hair_Diff:
