Special thanks to Briesence for the retexture of Elf Head 42 which I used, with permission,
to make a base for my retexture. I used 42 with a lot of smudging and softening along
with some original Obsidian texture to create the new texture. I have also added smokey eye
make up and over hauled the lips making them fuller. Also the drow has darker red lipstick
instead of skin coloured lips and all 4 elf races have black mascara now.
I have included a second zip containing an alternate drow texture. If you use united
colours by gaoneng, this alternate head may work better on the non-traditional drow
skin tones. See the Orleanna screen as compared to the Bianca Screen. Both are drow
but Orleanna uses the alternate texture. If you have several drow characters with regular
and human skin tones, you may want to keep a copy of each drow texture and switch them in
and out depending on which character you are playing.
To install just unzip into My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\override

Update
Added 2 new zips containing re-textures with soft make up
Update 2
As per request here are two versions of eyeliner redux. Enjoy!
MOTB Update!
Many thanks to Countless for all the help and imput! First get rid of the 2da file. Make sure your game is up to date. Unzip the files into your override dir. A side note I found I had to move everything from the My Documents Override into C:\Program Files\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2\override for it to work.
New!
Added the Wild Elf and an new alternate drow texture with dark lips for all makeup options
UPDATE 3
New Lips. Angelina Jolie lips for elves with the natural lip colour for drow restored. Should still be seamless unless you are using the NPR body in which case it's the body texture that causes the colour break. If it's wanted I can update these lips for the natural liner as well.

Hi, I like this retex alot especially the drow design but I cant seem to get it to work right. :( All the other elf heads (moon, wild, wood) show up except for the drow. I tried everything I could think of short of installing another mod you mentioned, but if the others work there shouldn't be any reason that one head wont. If you or anyone knows of any solution lemme know please. It's a pain reinstalling about 10 times trying to find out a likely solution. The only mods I'm using are yours, Kaedrins PrC Pack, Warlock Outfit Fix and the Oblivion to Nwn2 Hair Pack.
I get a very obvious seam at the neck using this. I've experimented a bit with the different makeup setups, and even different skin colorations, but I always get one. I have fully patched NWN but no expansion (I just rediscovered the game, basically, and I wanted to start up with some good looking character mods), and use the United Colors mod. Any clothing piece that shows skin (whether the built in warlock or various user made outfits) shows a difference, much unlike your screenshots (and I'd like to replicate something to that effect!)
Is there any particular combination of mods for the head I need here, and I'm just missing something?
Hi Bast. It's all about make up preference. If you like a natural look, download Natural, a light eyeliner, chose New Liner Textures and if you like the heavier make up take PorcelynElfHead53. If you have MOTB get the fix as well.
Hi, I'm intrigued by the screenshots I've seen of your pack but I would like to know wheather all those zip files are necessary or is there just one current zip file that needs to be downloaded?

I do not have MOTB. From looking at other subimissions it seems like I will have to texture and/or rename them but I am not sure until I have MOTB and can look for myself. If anyone else gets them to work by renaming feel free to upload them or send them to me to add on to this submission. I cannot give you a certain time line as to when these will be fixed for you all. Maybe for Christmas ;)
I have tried that and it doesn't work. Even with Whatbricks 1.3 in the override on its own I still have problems with it modified as you mentioned above and without.
Going to swap the files in and out when I play my Drow female for the moment. Its a pain but a work around for this problem. Thanks for trying to help.

I have MotB and use Whatbrick's 1.3 with updated Skelton files. I now can use all heads, including the Drow. What I had to do, inorder to use the Drow 53 is copy Whatbrick's Drow Skeleton 50 and change it to 53. All heads work and now I have some nice hair styles to use as well.
I have MOTB installed and the new races do not show when I use the elf heads. Any ideas on how to fix this ?

I love the Drow Alt Texture, but I've come across a problem. I use Whatbrick's Head and Hair pack and had to use the 2DA file to make this head work. His latest pack doesn't use a 2DA file and now this head won't work on Drow. The model is corrupted somewhere, but not sure what is causing it. There are no conflicting names between the two packs, so could it be the hair and face are incompatible? Note, it does work alone but not combined.
Gimble, I'm guessing that you have MOTB installed. And it looks like they renamed some of the files for the expansion, so these files would also need renaming.
For some reason I cannot get any makeup on the drow? I have tried DL every alt drow file but it is always just the default moonelf face.

Good work

Love the new natural look! Allow me to raise my vote score accordingly. :o)
Thanks for the explanation of the fair-looking drow, also. That makes a lot of sense - although, considering the amount of race-sensitive conversation options in the OC, it must have led to some laughs. :oD _________________________ KotOR Heads FR Deity and Faction Cloaks Fall-from-Grace Soundset

At first I thought it was something unnatural and not very impressive. But lately, looking it in game, I realize that it is very very good looking. And when I remembered, how ugly are female sun elves faces... and compared your version of the had with the original moon alf version... Strong 9 as a rating.
P.S. It took me 2 hours to understand, what file what was meant to mean what it meanes to be meant to be mean.

Could you make it so I could use both heads(natural and with makeup) without one set overriding the other?
