How to Make Character Presets Customize NPC Appearance - Ezekial711/MonsterHunterWorldModding GitHub Wiki

How to make your own presets: This method uses Cheat Engine, so don't try it if you're worried about getting banned, or can't resist having access to cheats.

1. Find SeiKur0's cheat table (use Google or something). Run Cheat Engine, open the table, click Main, character (there'll be a pause).
2. Load your character. Under the character table, there'll be character appearance. You should see your character name, etc.
3. Right click "Makeup 2 color (ARGB)" and select browse this memory region.
4. Open up a character preset file in a hex editing program. You'll see the first two bytes are 07 00.
5. After the 07 00 bytes, manually copy (ie. type out what you see) the hexadecimal values from the memory region window, replacing the bytes in the character preset file, in the exact same order.
6. Make sure the file size is the same (ie. don't copy bytes past the end of the preset file).
7. Name the file as the original presets are named, and place it in the same location.

If you did it correctly, you should now be able to load your character appearance as a preset.

If you did it wrong, MHW will eternally load the character creation, or not update character appearance when selecting that preset.

You can also replace NPC .CMP files with these. In other words, you can effectively customize NPC faces using this method.
