Antz in my Pantz

Votes

Tick yellow.png Fixes what I believe to be a development oversight. The ants are placed in the game; however, during development they seemed to have been forgotten about. Adds new locations and makes them harvest-able like many other vanilla insects. Adds new content/ingredients to the game besides the ants.(I could go either way on this one) Techangel85 (talk) 10:40, June 10, 2013 (MDT)

Brows

Tick green.png If you install the mod and don't activate the .esp, won't you get the improved textures without the additional styles? (same for Beards). (if the new styles are a problem, let's just recommend that the .esp not be used) Kryptopyr (talk) 10:51, June 14, 2013 (MDT)

Tick yellow.png The only thing that keeps me from voting a solid 'yes' on this mod is the differing outfits in the Temple of the Divines. This somehow makes it seem like the least organized of the temples, when I feel it should be the most organized and cohesive. This one detail tends to make me aware of the presence of the mod and breaks immersion. Overall, though, I do really like this mod, and it was easy enough to alter it to fit my preference. But I'm just not sure that I feel the default mod is really vanilla enough for Core. Kryptopyr (talk) 21:23, June 25, 2013 (MDT)

Tick yellow.png Better Male Feet only covers the male mesh, so I don't see what the difference is there. I'm unclear if FemFeet is actually still needed for this mod, given that FemFeet states in it's description that the latest version is included in XCE (this is assuming of course that XCE gets included in Core). If it is still needed, then this mod should only be accepted if we also add FemFeet to Core. Kryptopyr (talk) 21:09, June 25, 2013 (MDT)

Tick green.png If you are wondering, SR doesn't use this mod, mainly because other mods in it (All-In-One Face, Mature Skin, Better Males, Better Makeup, among others) overwrite it, and SR uses a high-res warpaint replacer from the same author as XCE to replace warpaints. Still, considering that AIO Face and Mature Skin require UNP or another female body replacer, and that Better Males is a body replacer, there's reason to keep this mod.
