Armor does not fit big breasted character

[ray5267]

Hi All,

 

What am I missing here? My character has big boobs and none of the armor mods fit them correctly. All of the mods make her breasts smaller. The are not super big but are large. I used Calientes Body Slide to create the body. I am very satisfied with her look but not with the armor making her boobs smaller. Can some one point me in the right direction and help me figure this out? I have done some searching here, but have not found an answer

 

Thanks a bunch,

There are different versions of the Calientes Bodytype and armors can be made for any one of them. IF you read closely they will probably say in the description which version for which they are made.

 

Also some armors (again this will usually be in the description) are not equipped to use the bodyslide and will thus be made for 0 (the small end) or 1 (the largest end.)

 

I would figure out which version of the body you have then match your armors up as best you can. Otherwise you will have to just deal with the body change if you want certain armors as mod authors can not possibly (and don't want to if they don't use the version) of every variation of every body type. :)

Thanks a bunch Lisnpuppy, I will look closer at the mods I have actually been able to try and check the body mods I have downloaded. I do know that CBBE v3 is one.

The armors you're equipping have to be BodySlide compatible, meaning they stretch and shrink according to the custom sliders you set in the tool. If they are not compatible they will use their own shape once you put the armor on, hence the difference in body shapes.

Look in the CBBE Compatible Files thread. It lists almost all of the CBBE mods on Nexus; you can go 'shopping' for outfits there. =)

 

Just if you made your character's bust even larger than the giant bust of Curvy, you may need to limit yourself to BodySlide-only outfits, if the size difference really is that large and it bugs you that much. Most people, unfortunately, only make outfits for Curvy, so those of us who prefer the more normal/natural sizes of Slim, and those who prefer the back-breakingly huge sizes of SH/SSH, lose out.

 

Hopefully Caliente's next update for CBBE will fix that, though....

Perhaps breasts are Akatosh's way of telling us that women aren't meant to be warriors.

Good info folks, Thanks for all your help. I did not know about the CBBE thread! Need to learn a lot more about the forums and the game.

Also check out Bodyslide CB++. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32731//?

You can create whatever breasts you like, and then make tons of armor and clothes fit.

 

Edit: I've spent more time paying dress-up in Skyrim than playing Skyrim.

My problem is as follows: I installed CBBE and CBBE Vanilla Outfits and everything works perfectly - clothes fit the larger size of the breast (you can see the size of the breast without undressing a woman). However, when I increased the size of the breast with the help of a bodyslide, the clothing does not reflect this anymore. I guess you have to convert your clothes to a new size. Just how to do it? Maybe someone can explain it to me as simply as possible, preferably in points? :)

I've only been playing with mods a few months, and haven't created any myself. That said, it seems as if body sliders need to be added to the armors manually.

 

I don't know how to do it yourself, but most CBBE armors either come with bodyslide files or have a second mod available with the files. Either look in the optional files for your chosen mod or search your mod and see if there are standalone bodyslide files. Install with your chosen mod manager and build in bodyslide.
