Any mods that remove abs from fatties?

[AnAtheistBear]

Does anyone know of a mod that removes abs from the fat NPCs? Annoyingly immersion breaking when I kill a fat raider only to find out bro was as shredded as me.

Sounds like the Unique Player mod might be what you're looking for.

McDonough still has abs

Since you gave a specific example, I went over to Diamond City and compared the mayor in his suit and without it.

He is overweight both ways. This said, I use BodyTalk 2, so he's overweight but strong. Is that what you mean? You might be using a body texture for men which gives them muscularity. Some body textures give a lot of muscularity, depending on which you use.

Post Script: Okay, here's a comparison with suit and without for the Mayor in my game. I don't see a problem. Again, this is with BodyTalk skin texture built with default muscularity (though you can control the muscularity in BodySlide, of course).

Thank you for the help! I just want the lines in his stomach and chest gone. I'd imagine it would take Photoshop?

Hi, I'm not sure which body texture you're using. Some of them are very muscular (I think there's one called A Body which is supposed to be very muscular). Body Talk is capable of being less muscular, but you need to build it in BodySlide to the preset of your choice. The more muscular you build the nude body in BodySlide, the more muscular it will be even when overweight. So if you want less defined abs, you'll need to build the body's abs with less definition.

I'm not using any body textures, unfortunately. I just want softer looking bodies. There wasn't an option in bodyslide to alter the definition of the bodies, just the size. I wasn't sure if someone made a custom texture for the male bodies, yet., but I've searched high and low. The only thing I found on the Internet was someone talking about how to edit textures of the skin, but this wasn't in reference to removing the abdominal lines.

Oh, I see. Sadly then you're really stuck with whatever Bethesda designed for the Mayor to have. I guess they never figured he'd take his suit off *Laughs*

This said, they do have a pick pocket skill which can steal the clothes off someone's back, haha, so they should have considered it

Post Script: I'm not sure if it's allowed to link BodyTalk in these Forums, but if you type it in the search on Fallout 4 Nexus Mods it comes right up. Since you're already familiar with BodySlide you can always try it. It should give you more slider options than you have without it.

Post Post Script: Though I think BodyTalk uses ZEX Skeleton. If you don't use that you might find it difficult to convert your bodies to it (I've been using BT for 6 years so don't remember if it was difficult).

There's also something called EVB Body, but I don't think that supports BodySlide if I remember correctly (I never tried EVB).
