That's true, but you must realize that it's not actually that simple at all. Mevans could just move the eyeholes one pixel down, but this would mean that they would have to redo every single Orc/Uruk skin as well. Which is equally crazy to constantly changing skins.

Of course, I was also joking :-P

Gen. Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 22:13, July 29, 2017 (UTC) Why not simply redesign the helmet a bit to fit both Human and Orcish skins? Also, in the mod the player is a human, the speechbanks of every faction make that very clear, therefore, maybe, ye know, the Orc helmet textures should also fit the human skin.

By the way, redoing every single Orc skin isn't as time consuming as you think. I used a stopwatch to measure the time I needed to fix just one Orc skin, the recorded time was exactly 17 seconds and 87 milliseconds. The mod currently has 14 Orcish skins, therefore I would need 238 seconds to fix them all, that is, 4 minutes.
