</syntaxhighlight>The MaterialPresetResource and VisualResource IDs can be found in a variety of places. Some of them are here on the wiki: [[Modding:Hair Meshes|Hair Meshes,]] [[Modding:Head Models|Head Models,]] [[Modding:NPC Head Models|NPC Head Models,]] and others are external: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xb7Hh1KjVRARdmu7A_YlcoqS8tklEoFjwA1oYLn1Etk/edit Eye Makeup Reference].
Finally, with some clever searching you can usually find what you need using the Multitool and searching the game files.
