A little over 13 years ago, RocketLombax released Authentic Burned Man which aimed to redesign "Joshua Graham, The Burned Man, to much more closely match his appearance in the game art." In many ways, Burned Man Lives serves as the spiritual successor to this classic mod. In The Burned Man Lives, Joshua Graham is completely replaced with new models and textures for his hands, face, and outfit.
This mod is possible thanks to 3d art assets from ToastyFresh (outfit), AlexScorpion (hand textures), and the kind members who support me on Patreon. RocketLombax's original face texture has also been borrowed (as permissions on the original mod allow) with edits allowing the texture to fit over a more detailed face model.
The base mod has been tested extensively and has no known issues. Also included is a patch for the Joshua Graham companion mod by LegionaryH. Please also note: Because Joshua is intended to be wrapped from head to toe with the exception of his fingertips and eyes, be warned that equipping him with any outfit that exposes more skin than this will likely have visual consequences.
Thanks to all the creators mentioned above, plus many friends who tested this mod including bale, dante, piper, lucian, iro, m8es, earl, and more.
Unfortunately, this mod will be incompatible with other great mods that edit Joshua Graham: most notably Authentic Burned Man and Physically Based Graham. It is also not intended to do anything other than replace the NPC; in other words, this is not intended to be used as a player race.
