WHAT IS IT?
A wide range of body weight slider variations for one UNP body.
Breast, butt and belly management nodes are included!
HOW IT WORKS
There are two body meshes like any other body mod. Femalebody_0 uses the base UNP body shape we are all familiar with. Femalebody_1 uses a heavily modified UNPB-TBBPO body mesh. The vertice counts for both body models are exactly the same and I altered the TBBPO mesh considerably to make it do what I wanted. At the mid range of the weight slider (#50) the body result will be the same as the default UNP Femalebody_1. So from #00 to #50 you will get a body that looks like the default UNP. From #51 to #100 you will start getting increased hip, butt and breast sizes. It only took me a month to get this right and I had over 1GB worth of Blend files by the time I was done.
Both body meshes have been reweighted and rerigged to work with a maximum compatibility skeleton (more on this later). The skin partitions and dismemberment instances have also been redone to fit the vanilla standard. No more skin clipping through vanilla boots and gauntlets.
WEIGHT PAINTING
The body has been kept close to the orginal UNP, allowing for the changes and improvements I made:
- New crotch weights to prevent distortion with some animations.
- New breast, butt and stomach weights to support the skeleton's functions.
I didn't want to add a modified skeleton no other mods support and I didn't want to change the weights drastically so it would be impossible to mod with. I want the mod to be compatible with what people already have installed.
I also addressed SOME of the issues UNP has with SexLab animations. I'm not an animator and I can only do so much. There are hundreds of animations and I couldn't test for all of them.
NOTE: There is one VERY MINOR glitch where the breast partitions will jump in shape from weightslider #99 to #100. #100 is the default TBBPO body shape I modded and nothing I could do prevents this. It is so minor you might not notice it, but I thought I should mention it anyway.
REQUIRED SKELETON AND BONE LIST
No matter what skeleton you use, it must have the following bones for this mod to work:
- NPC L Breast
- NPC L Breast01
- NPC L Butt
- NPC R Breast
- NPC R Breast01
- NPC R Butt
- NPC Belly
I used the XP32 Max Compatibilty Skeleton v1.6 (XPMS RIG 1.6c Full Bone) to make this but I deleted all of the NiNodes in the nifs that are not used.
SEXLAB COMPATIBILTY
As stated, I tried to address the known issue of some UNP meshes showing seams or distorting with some SexLab animations. The meshes aren't perfect (what is?), but they are an improvement over what is out there right now.
I tested this mod with Soul Gem Oven 2 and Mana Tanks. The breast scaling works as intended as does the belly for pregnancy mods. One thing I could not fix (don't know how) is the NPC Belly Node increasing in size and making the navel stretch. I admit I didn't put a lot of time into trying to figure it out since I don't use pregnancy mods (I hate babies/children) but this mods works as well as any other UNP mod that supports pregnancy.
UNP COMPATIBILTY
As long as you have the right skeleton and UNP installed you shouldn't have any problems. If you already use UNP meshes for jiggle and pregnancy this mod will work right along with them. The ONLY issue you will have is nipple piercings.
REQUESTS FOR CLOTHING/ARMOR CONVERSIONS
Ha!Ha! You can forget it. I HATE mesh work for Skyrim. I'm not making anything unless I make something for myself. If you want your favorite outfit converted, get someone else to do it for you or do what I did and read a few tutorials and learn to mod.
PERMISSIONS
The body meshes themselves (FemaleBody_0 and Femalebody_1) are resources. Feel free to make all of the clothing and armor you want with them. I don't want this uploaded to Nexus but there's nothing I can really do to stop you other than report you to the staff there. My mods aren't hosted there because THEY do not want me or my content contaminating their shit-stain of a site. And I had rather shave my head with a cheese grater than have anything I make hosted there.
