Don't know where to begin.

[Warhog67]

I recently downloaded an excellent mod that is custom made and voiced. However, when I use SIL(sleep in lingerie) the outfits don't match the body preset. Neither does alot of armors. So how do I fix this issue? Use Bodyslide? I'm about as smart as a box of rocks when it comes to this. Any help or fix is greatly appreciated.

TIA

I use Vortex and Loot.

Yes, you will have to use BodySlide. You will also need Caliente's mod ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/198 ) and CBBE 3BA ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/30174 ) for better physics, if your other mods require it, or UNP-based stuff ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/31126 ) - ALL mod sites NSFW.

I use only CBBE and 3BA. Just needed to be pointed in the right direction. I searched for vids on how to do this but no luck as to importing a custom preset? into bodyslide ( I have no clue how to use).

My knowledge is minimal for custom bodies, but if the author includes BS files, when you open BS, there should be a 'build all' button on the interface. Just check it (and the Build Morphs option), then click on 'Build', and some dialog boxes will pop up. Make sure that the custom body is checked in the first box, and confirm for the list. Then a second box may open, if there are conflicting meshes, and you have to choose which mesh(es) will be represented.

 

With no bodyslide files, I THINK that you will have to open a new project in BS, and make the files yourself. Try searching for creating bodyslide files for custom body, or even ask the author of the mod itself...

Where if the author has it, are these files located? Path?

[7531Leonidas]

It would probably be as an optional mod on the original page, or even a separate mod, if not already included in the original mod. Different folder arrangements for different modders, unfortunately. There is also this ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/37765 ), your follower might already be included.

 

The info should show up on the original mod page, or under the 'Requirements' tab on that page. Alternately, a search in Nexus for a key part of the mod title might uncover a BS for that mod (also should be found in the Requirements).

I looked at the Follower mod I have. ( spoiler alert.. Pantheon Coralyn) and looked at the files on Nexus and it does have a Bodyslide group and meshes. Hope I can find them on my PC and work to get the armors and clothing to fit. One or 2 things I can probably do is change the body or change the armor/cloths. Not sure which would be easiest. And that's after I learn how to use BS. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

You need to get this mod

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/77700?tab=files

 

Files are in: CalienteTools/Bodyslide/SliderPresets.

 

Once installed, you should have two new presets available in BodySlide: Pantheon-Nude and Pantheon-Outfit.

If you use lingerie mods that put lingerie over the nude body without replacing it (typically, bra is slot 56), you should build lingerie with the nude preset.

I have the cbbe 3ba installed but the Jasmine attire clips badly on the body. I use coco's mod FYI. So does Dark Dreams armor mod and others. Regalia of the Scorn however fits well. Edited December 9, 2022 by Warhog67

"clips badly" in what way?

 

If it clips when wearer is standing still, it generally means that add-on items are not built to same slider preset as body slot item. It is also possible that add-on does not conform to at least some of the 3BA sliders which are non-zeroed on the preset. Next, if add-on mesh is a bit low-poly, and areas of the outfit get really stretched to accommodate more generous forms, flat polygons of the outfit may clip into curved mesh of the body.

 

If it looks ok when wearer stands still, sliders are OK. If it starts clipping when various jiggly bits start moving, it means add-on is weighted to a different physics reference than body item. I.e body is 3BA, while add-on is CBBE 3BBB.

 

In many cases, it is just easier to load the problem add-on in OS, delete all bones and sliders, load the 3BA reference and then re-weigh and re-conform the sliders.
