Birdie Hair - Version IV (+ Accessory)
🕑 Added 2023-11-30 23:25:01 +0000 UTCHello!!! This is the fourth part of the hair series I have been working! It has a similar texture to Birdie I in case you are interested in having several hairs that fit a look for RP or story! It has the main hair and then a version with a braided bun in the back. I've also made an accessory headpiece with seven optional, toggleable parts: a bow, a ribbon, three laurel headbands, leaf barrettes, flower barrettes, a snood, and pearls to decorate the snood
⁍ Miqo has standard, earless, and one with ear holes for humanoid ears (like elf ears) (may need adjustments depending on your fit!)
⁍ Au Ra's face tendrils are fit around the horns, and the ponytail is fit above them, which also should fit humanoid ears if you're using them
⁍ Viera have a standard option with covered ear holes, and then one fit to the hyur viera ears on xma
⁍ Elezen's hair is fit to curve around their ears so it doesn't clip
⁍ Subtle ombre highlights - this hair was not highlight friendly to work with but I did my best
Hair notes:
- This is a LM mashup/major edit, so please bear in mind that it looks best with shaders without ADOF/MXAO because of the many layers of transparency. It is very soft!! In reshade you can toggle those options off in the shader list
- FFXIV has a hard time with transparency, so the hair will look somewhat see-through when in front of anything that has transparency, or any in-game vfx effects like glows or cold breath
- Highlights look best with very complimentary colors, and I recommend using Palette+ to pick them
- All races use the L/R hair bones for posing, then 2 ex. bones for the over the shoulder ponytail
- Not hat compatible
Accessory notes:
- The bow, if you're using it, uses hair A & B bones for posing (the two main ones down the back)
- The modpack uses metadata toggles so you can pick what parts of the accessory you want visible. I have attached a screenshot of where the toggles are located, after you hit "Advanced Editing" in penumbra - The metadata toggle is already set up under "Necessary Files"!

ahhh i'm so glad to hear you like it!!! thank you so much for the kind words! i'm so glad it managed to find a special place in your oc's lore, too!
I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to fit this to elezen! It looks so natural and curves so nicely around the ears, it looks like official content but so much better. Also, I've never hit "purchase" on a subscription so fast in my LIFE. My duskie has this exact hair texture, wears her hair like this all the time, AND has a Plot Important Ribbon that I've never been able to find the equivalent of for her in other mods. I started screaming the second you released the first WIP image and I don't think I've stopped yet XD 1000/10 Thank you for making my duskie finally look like herself!
