[NSFW] STEP Female Body Replacer

[TechAngel85]

That mod would change things too much to be considered for Core which is the aim of the female replacer. If it also randomizes NPCs, that could be a bad thing with the assets I have included. You wouldn't want a lil old lady ending up with a battle-hardened warrior's body tone.

[TechAngel85]

Oh another note, I just received permission to use Mature Skin in the compilation. I'll add it as an option in FOMOD!

I hear you, although its very configurable (little old ladies can be exclude, as can all unique/named npcs, mod added npcs can be put in an exclusion list). The height adjusting feature is very nice as you can select a range by race.

I tried your compilation with Mature Skin, but had a tone mismatch / seam issue * also tried it with Women of Skyrim with good results (both were done over a UNP body, so not proper test).

* tone issue seems to be specific to a body sk file in the UNP download of Mature Skin, I followed a tip from the MS forum to use the body sk file from the CBBE download to correct the issue but got distracted by the next shiny object, EBD.

 

>> ninja'd, I'll give the new FOMOD a proper go with my new hardcore combat profile (no UNP, now with more Duke Patrick's).

I'll post the updated FOMOD when I'm done updating it.

 

As for this other mod, I'll have to have a lot more time than I have currently to be able to play with it a bit. (no longer on vacation... )

Is there any interest in the Alternativ version of Mature Skin? This includes alternative versions such as clean skin, with or without moles, with or without pubic hair (this doesn't matter in our setup since the ladies will be clothed in undies) and with or without body scars (author defined on texture; not user controlled).

[redirishlord]

I'm going to feed those to EBD to avoid deciding :-)

 

I did observe that the body scars are very pale, you might want to have a look in game (if you haven't already), I'm not sure if my observation is driven my ENB preset or the texture itself. Tl:dr you may find the scars look more like clean spots.

[TechAngel85]

I think I'll just go with the default textures for now. They can be added later if interest arises. I noticed the author is working on V2 of these textures.

I'd like to see the with/without moles and scars options.  I haven't really tried the scars, but I definitely prefer the texture without the moles.  I think the moles look good, but when every female in the game sports the exact same set, it seems a bit weird.

[TechAngel85]

Good point. I'll see about adding in those options later. For now, here is the updated FOMOD with Mature Skin optional install added.

Since we have permission, we should see about optimizing the textures with DDSopt as necessary.

I had the same thought but I'm still a bit of a noob with DDSopt (still running unoptimized vanilla textures). So if someone wants to do that for me that would be wonderful!

When you say we permission, what does that entail? All the mods involved in this are free for us to use or is it just one mod we can use?

[TechAngel85]

All. Xenius's stuff is free to use as long as you notify him, which I did. FemFeet is a free resource. The rest I've obtained the permissions from the author's personally for the purpose of this compilation. Here's the list we have permissions for thus far:

 

Winterlove (Diverse Muscle Tones) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19608/  arison_c (Rebirth Female Body Shape) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12179/  Xs2reality (Sporty Sexy Map) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/13377/Svarog (Fitness Body) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/16731/Maevan2 (Mature Skin) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/32986/Phygit (FemFeet) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3666/Xenius (High Resolution Scars) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/4784/Xenius (XCE - Scarface) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24600/

I'm still getting neck seams! You forgot to hide those head files, but even after hiding them, still neck seams. Check Ysolda in Whiterun. Once she's fixed, maybe we'll be seam free.

[TechAngel85]

Yeah, I've been aware of it but been too busy with work to play with it. I took some time today and it would seem as if they just isn't going to work. Having the head and body textures separated it just a nightmare for vanilla as it seems like the game is rendering them in different shades. I'll play some more later to see if I can find a solution.
