Masked Mustachio's Lady Thorek

Description
With the update to the Dwarfs my wife and I wanted to try out the changes. My wife liked the idea of Thorek so I made a gender change mod so she can play as a woman.

Thanks to h3ro and the AssetEditor guide he wrote for me to help put a female head on this body. I could not have done this mod without AssetEditor and the help h3ro gave me on how to use it. It is an awesome tool and I'm super impressed with the coding. Check it out on the Modding Discord Channel here: https://discord.com/channels/373745291289034763/795235087352201226

This mod might not be for you and that is okay. I wouldn't use it for myself since I like to play male characters, but this is a mod for people like my wife who want to play as a girl. It wasn't made to be some rule 63 thing just for kicks.

I changed her armor because normal Thorek has beefy arms that didn't really work on a female character....plus I think this armor looks better with his helmet.

Her campaign voice is silent so she is not constantly shouting someone else's name (there are very few female voices in the game that can work on the campaign and they are all very obvious what units they come from since they scream the name every time you click on them).

Her battle voice is the Sisters of Avalon voice because that is a fairly neutral voice with almost no mentions of race or unit related things.

Other than the revoice and reskin and rename she is not any different than Thorek.
Diplomacy voices are unchanged because it is a lot of work for no payoff...especially when there are no female diplomacy voices that work for a dwarf.

Compatibility: In order for the voice to "stick" to any starting lord or hero a mod MUST include start position data. It is a really stupid programming decision by CA but it is what it is. Because of this, this mod requires a new campaign and NO other start position mods such as Mixu and whatnot. It is annoying, I know, but don't blame me for the weird choices of programming.

Check out my other mods I made here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/lumparoo/myworkshopfiles/?appid=594570

If you want to use more than one of my gender swaps at a time please use this combined mod since you cannot do more than one at a time due to start_pos tables being used. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2391207303

Also please rate my mods so that they can get rated and noticed by other players with similar interests. I do really appreciate it.

Just FYI for fellow modders: Getting her to work on the Throne was a serious pain but I know how to do it now so hit me up if you are running into issues with it.

Well at least as easy to translate to a unique Legendary Lord as it is to create a unique Legendary Lord lol. That is a bit of a process and more than I ever need to be able to play with my wife.

This is a nice idea, this could be easily translated into a mod that adds Queen Helga. Instead of Changing Thorek, it should be Queen Helga :)

They are not made to work together as they are two start_pos mods but you can use my complete lady mod to play all of them. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2391207303

Figured out why.
Had to reorder where the mods were positioned, Grimhild ontop, then Thorek, then Ungrim, and it worked.
Weird...

For reasons I can't narrow down, due to other mods, this and the Lady Ungrim mod are causing a CTD on-launch. =/

Just wanted to let everyone know I have made a Slayer Queen Ungrim mod as well. Check it out here:

Just FYI there was an issue with the Throne mount animations with the model which I **HAD** fixed before release but they returned during release somehow...so I fixed them again and everything should be up and running correctly now.

Which part? Try turning off all other mods and try again. Should be good then you need to find the mod not working. Most likely it will be a start_pos mod like Mixu. But also any mod that changes the character stats will likely also mess with it since they use the same tables.

Not working for me in a mortal empires new campaign.

Lol between my wife and the people asking for more gender change mods...probably not. Well ratmen are safe because my wife isn't interested in the ratmen...and neither am I.
