Version 3.2.2

- Leif Wayfinder soften chin edges - this was needed
Version 3.2.1
- Belethor: hair edits to fix an annoying clipping in the back when the head is turning.
Version 3.2
- Fixed a few mesh typos and hair-beard color mismatches.
Version 3.1
- Reverted Ulfric to be blonde as before.
  I don´t intend to update this mod or any other any further. This is to say support is more or less over at this time.
Version 3.0
- Added Ultimate College of Winterhold Patch
Version 2.9
- Ulfric´s height was from the older versions and somehow got through recent versions. Default height is 1, it was 1.14 and now is 1.06. This should eliminate any issue with animations or getting stuck., or plain disproportions.
- Increased height for Galmar and Ghorbash to 1.03.
- Fixed Ulfric´s underbeard colour mismatch, it was darker than the rest.
- Fixed colour mismatch between Ulfric´s hair-beard. Changed tint and alphas for the hg hair.

- Anything to report do it so in the comments section and I´ll take a look.
Version 2.8
- Proventus: mustache was clipping through.
- Farengar: slight clipping
- Farkas: ruffled the beard a bit.
- If it clipps it does not mean there´s nothing to be done or that it sucks. If you find clippings do report, if you want.
Version 2.7
- Included a patch for the mod Opening Scene Overhaul - since the mod needs to be very low in the load order, this patch ensures the facegen from bop sos is used.
Version 2.6
- Fixed a ctd with Irlof, pirate2, that appears in Dawnstar.
Version 2.5
- Improvements to: Kodlak, Athis, Torvar, subtler smirkes from Belethor.
Version 2.4
- Made a fomod installer.
- Remade the patches - they are now separate from the main file.
- Updated patch for AI Overhaul to version 1.6.7. Chose not to forward protected npcs changes from it.

- Vilkas is back to is older version, with a(the) proper beard.
- Both of them have had their beards tweaked for better aesthetics and look better overall.
Version 1.8

Version 1.7
- Fixed Ulfrics clothing
- Made main file and patches as compacted esls. Extra patches flagged esls.

- Fixed Isran´s head mesh missing the hair textures.

- Changes are:
- Fixed previous freezes and clipping issues.
- Removed BoP dependency for compatibility between head meshes. Added efa requirement.
- Added new content. Many new npcs custom made and otherwise. Updated the list in the description by location.
- Previous npcs that were exports only with added beards have been tweaked and also converted to high poly head meshes.
- Newly added replacers are either scultped/custom heads or re-imagined and tweaked from vanilla with the features listed above.
- Edits to almost all of the previous replacers, subtler tints where needed, adjustments to colours to better match beard/hairs; general mesh adjustments all around.
- Exports for Dark elfs with fixed partition for a specific vanilla hair. To the most known npcs.
- Reverted a change to vanilla outfit for Nazir and Falion.
- A considerable number of beards are tweaked from the original models, shape and volume. A few are custom variations.
