Users attempting to install the cm3d2hairv2 upd files should follow these standard procedures:

Despite the increase in visual fidelity and physics calculations, the V2 update optimized the file structure. By sharing texture atlases and utilizing efficient LOD (Level of Detail) settings, the performance hit is negligible compared to loading multiple legacy hair mods simultaneously. cm3d2hairv2 upd

Prior to this update, hair physics in user-generated mods were often simplistic, leading to severe clipping (hair cutting through the character's shoulders or clothing).

What’s next? Look for the "V3" prototypes that utilize GPU-based physics for 100+ individual hair strands. But for now, the v2 upd remains the gold standard for stability and features. If you are still using the original V1

The upd version will ask to overwrite older hair_physics.ini or bone_params.txt files. Say yes to all. The update explicitly fixes these.

⚠️ Never just delete Mod folder – that breaks many mods. The upd version will ask to overwrite older hair_physics

Extract the archive directly into your game’s root folder. The folder structure inside the mod should look like this:

/CM3D2_Data/
/Sybaris/
/GameData/
   /Hair_V2/
       /texture/
       /model/
       /bone_setting/

If you see a Unity3D file, it goes into Sybaris/UnityInjector or Sybaris/Mod depending on your loader.
