Seems all the NPCs have white hair now. Is that a result of fixing all the different 0 values? I think we were seeing brown hair as the default on NPCs previously because that's what 0 was getting twisted into. Seems that 0 is actually white hair.

Is that the way you understand it to work?

it doesn't look like kraeger's fix if you mean the 1120 one

Angelox is right, it's not my fix that is in the code. I was quite happy to see that a better code had been written, but i will be honest, i am a bit sad after seeing that my name is not in the changelog, at least as part of the team that helped solve the problem, i spent 25+ hours working on this bug..

Anyway:

haircolor 255 = white hairs (when working correctly)
haircolor 0 = dark brown hairs (when working correctly)

I haven't tried 1120 and i don't know what the new fix is in the code, but this what i can understand from what So_1337 is seeing in game:

My fix only affected player characters, this is why we didn't see a change on NPC. From what i understand, the new fix is working on both player and NPC, so we would either need to know what kind of characters it's drawing (Player or NPC) or we would need to update the default NPC model to have brown hair (after the fix).

I had no idea, my apologies. I saw your fix here and the reports that it was working, then saw that 1120 included a fix for bald players and assumed it to be yours.

Guess we'll have to wait for the full story from KLS. Thanks for the information, guys.

Yeah I'm sorry, but none of your code was used for the fix, I'm not even sure if it's a full fix atm. But you were the inspiration behind it, I'll add you to the log on next update if you'd like.
