redrob41 Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Update: There is now a new version of this file on this thread. Hey everyone, I've finally done it! This mod will add two new, playable heads. They are based on the fan favourite head from KotOR 1 known as "Mullet Man" (PMHC04). I have modified TSL assets (to avoid porting), mostly PMHH01 model and texture to get as close as possible to the original appearance. There is also a second head model where I cribbed together parts of PMHH01 with the long spiky hair from N_ZezKaiEllH and the bangs from PMHC04 (again, only using TSL assets). The first model was able to maintain the edge smoothing from the original model, but doesn't get the iconic hair that Mullet Man was known for. The second model does achieve the epic hair, but at the cost of having hard edges around the jawline and hairline (due to limitations in the modding process at the moment). You get to choose, which of the twins will you rule the galaxy with?

Canderis Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Did you know the texture for k1's mullet man is in TSL as a placeable's texture?

Canderis Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 We'll you certainly did a great job with that! I can't tell the difference!
VarsityPuppet Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 The hair looks much better too. BRAVO!
greggomonkey Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Now that is good. I have always felt like this head was so classic.
L0ki194 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 At last! It is done! I've been waiting for about 2 years for Mullet Man to come into TSL. Awesome job, RedRob. And I agree with VP, the hair actually looks better than the K1 version.

I used an alpha channel and "punchthrough" in a txi so that parts of the back of the hair would be transparent, and less obviously triangle and rectangle meshes. That makes the hair less like anime spikes, and more like an uncombed tumble of actual hair than the K1 version.
Canderis Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I'm curious: does this head use the same map as mullet-man in k1? Iirc there was at least one head that used the map.

The face is pretty much the same, but the hair uvw map is all new. I had to start with Zez's hair, then chop off the bald head, and build new polygons on top of that. There are several face textures that are set up quite similarly (all the skin, eyes, only some of the hair): PMHH01 PMHH02 PMHC07 PLC_EndPIC and there are a couple that have a tiny bit of similarity: PMHC04A N_ZezKaiEllH
L0ki194 Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Do you know what model uses the PLC_EndPIC texture? I looked at the texture in GIMP, and now I'm curious as to what it looks like on it's respective model.
Ghost Down Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Looking great, although I will not download it. Can't stand Mullet Man, but looking great nonetheless.

A=clothes of healthy guy in cage B=clothes of burnt, drained guy C=face of healthy guy D=face of burnt, drained guy
Meowster Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Excellent work! Will definitely use this in my next playthrough!
GeorgNihilus Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I ALWAYS play like female but this one makes me wish to start new playthrough as male no doubt ... downloading ... just for the screenies those darkside transitions look amazing too, a shame about those hard edges around the jawline and hairline, I think I'll be ruling the galaxy ASAP with the first option ... thx very impressive job
