Modder ‘TaxEvasionMaster’ has released a new amazing mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition. This mod adds high-polygon heads and hair physics to pretty much all NPCs. And, since this mod will greatly enhance the game’s graphics, we highly recommend trying it.
Going into more details, this mod overhauls over 3000 NPCs. As such, players can expect expressive faces and high-polygon heads. Of these NPCs, 2400 have hair. And yes, the mod overhauls the hair of all those NPCs by adding physics to all of them.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find some screenshots. These screenshots showcase some of the modded characters, so take a look at them.
Now, if for some reason you don’t like the high-polygon count heads but want the hair physics, you can download this alternative version of the mod. I personally prefer the higher poly heads. But hey, it’s at least good to have options, right?
Speaking of Skyrim, here are some other big fan expansions for it. Wyrmstooth is one of them, adding new quests and dungeons to the game. This other mod brings elements from The Witcher games into Skyrim. Dragon Hall Tavern is a huge 2GB mod that adds quests, new places, an arena, and more. Then there’s Land of Vominhem, Apotheosis and Legacy of the Dragonborn. Don’t forget to also check out this Castlevania-inspired mod. Shumer and the Priest Kings is another DLC-sized expansion mod with over 200 locations, 180+ quests and 8,500 lines of voiced dialogue. Oh, and here is another one that adds the cool Nemesis system from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor to it. Lastly, we have this mod that adds six new islands to explore.
And that’s not all. Skyrim has other mods that do lots of cool stuff. This Call of Duty Mod adds to the game 12 new fully functional weapons from it. Then we have this mod that adds to the base game over 7000 voiced lines via AI. There is also this mod that brings the voices of Geralt and Ciri from The Witcher 3 to it. Another cool mod is this one that adds destructible objects to the game. You can also download this mod that makes NPCs smarter, enabling dynamic AI and allowing them to seek cover. Oh, and let’s also not forget this mod that adds unlimited dynamic light sources, as well as this mod that introduces a dynamic sanity system. Not only that but this mod adds a dynamic decapitation system. Finally, these mods add Subsurface Scattering, Dynamic Cubemaps, Water Caustics and Parallax Mapping to the game.
