About this mod

A small pack of Custom-Tattoos i made (already working on more)

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I re-uploaded the whole thing because for some reason the comment section wasn't working before. Now you can leave comments as well!

This is a pack of 12 Tattoos i made. I found the motives on the internet and thought they would look nice as tattoos. They are in no means perfect, but i decided to share them anyway. I hope they will be of use for some people.

I'm already working on more and will release them if someone is interested.

INSTALLATION

Just extract the archive (winrar) into your Dragon Age Override Folder.
You have to apply them via the Toolset, they are not showing up in the Character Creator in game.

INSTALLATION (In-Game-Character-Creator)

There is still no way to add extra Tattoos (at least not that i know of) to the Character Creation, but you can override one of the default tattoos as mentioned in the Tutorial on how to create facial tattoos at the Social Bioware Forum:

At this point you could create a custom head preset which will use your tattoo. However, to get the tattoo to be available in the games character generator for facegen heads, we run into a problem. At this time I am unaware of any way to add additional tattoos to the character creator beyond the default ones. That means you are going to have to override one of those. To do so, rename your file to one of the following, depending on which race/background you want it for:

uh_pct_dc1_0t.dds (Dwarf Commoner)
uh_pmt_001_0t.dds (Dwarf Commoner)
uh_pct_dn1_0t.dds (Dwarf Noble)
uh_pct_h01_0t.dds (Human, Elf City/Mage)
uh_pct_h02_0t.dds (Human, Elf City/Mage)
uh_tat_ed1_0t.dds (Elf Dalish)
uh_tat_ed2_0t.dds (Elf Dalish)
uh_tat_ed3_0t.dds (Elf Dalish)
uh_tat_ed4_0t.dds (Elf Dalish)

Now load up the game and go into the character creation screen. Choose the appropriate race/background and you should see your tattoo show up


So, for example if you want to use Tattoo Nr1 on your Human character, rename the files from:

uh_tat_cem001_0t
uh_tat_cem001_0t_l2
uh_tat_cem001_0t_l3

to

uh_pct_h01_0t.dds
uh_pct_h01_0t_l2.dds
uh_pct_h01_0t_l3.dds


KNOWN ISSUES

I'm not sure why, but they don't work on Dalish. I haven't figured it out yet (maybe its meant to be that way by the game - after all the Dalish seem to have a long tradition with their tattoos). If someone knows a way to make them work for Dalish too, please tell me! They work for all other races though.
Replacing a default Dalish Tattoo should work just fine though.

THANKS

Thanks goes to DarthParametric at the Social Bioware Forum for his Tutorial on how to create Custom Tattoos.
