greensmith Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I recently bought Oblivion again and everything is going well, i have many many mods since i know my way around files to some extent with none of them clashing. My problem is that i have installed HG Eye candy high resoultion 4096x4096 and some other mods (which i can't find anymore to click the part i need) to change my characters body textures/upgrade them. I need help finding the mod or option that i clicked, the option is that of what type of breasts do you want? No not the size of the breasts but if you want to have more natural ones (which i chose and i regret it visually) or more superficial ones (looks like they have had implants). The fact that they are saggy breasts has gotten on my nerves because when i try to wear my armor it just doesn't look right (Draconic chest piece loo low because of the drooping breasts), now if i had picked or could find the mod again for the breast type natural or plastic etc. I use Extems HGE eye candy with high res with lots of mods all working well but i can't change the breast type (not size) for the life of me. Anyone have any idea what mod or how to solve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomlong54210 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The armor having that issue is a matter of the stock clothing and armor replacer having those changes. The body meshes and armor meshes are separate. Even if you choose a different upperbody, the armors would still look that way, unless you install a different armor pack as well. I do not know which version you are using, but the "EVE HGEC" project may be worth checking out. It offers different body variations and stock replacers. HGEC 1.1 offers more body variants though. Try searching "HGEC stock" or something similar in order to see what sort of stock replacers are out there. It sounds like you are looking for a clothing and armor replacer that has a different upperbody, not just the body itself. Another alternative is to switch to TGND, which uses HGEC's textures. You would be able to use the high resolution textures with a very different body, that may be more to your liking. Who knows (other than you, I guess.) It is worth checking out.

yeldarb Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 If your computer is not having problems with displaying the high resolution skin textures then you should be using HGEC. Every mod I am listing is available as OMOD or ican be turned into an OMOD by Oblivion Mod Manager(OBMM) TESNexus php?id 2097, You should already have this utility.(1) Install Exnems NUDE version php?id 10171 (2) Install HGEC 1.21 TESNexus php?id 15802. When you install the HGEC body using OBMM you will be asked if you wish to overwrite the files for other mods,choose yes to all, unless you know what you already have and how to make it work.(3) Install Eve Stock Clothing and Armor Replacer TESNexus php?id 24078 This mod makes all of the clothes in the game compatible with the HGEC body shape you prefer, and you can overwrite the meshes and textures to install more revealing stock armors and clothes.The textures installed by this mod are an improvement over vanilla, but you can overwrite them with (4) Ozmo's High Resolution Skin Textures for HGEC. TESNexus php?id 20022. This is not an OMOD, but it is installed into a separate folder by following the instructions in the readme. You use this the same way you use the Exnem version. The best part about using OMODS is that if you do not like the result,you can always change it very easily by using OBMM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My upper body texture (breasts) for my character all droop down even when i use custom armor, i mostly use custom armor and through every single one they are all the same old drooped breasts spoiling the way it looks. This is also the same for when my character is without armor, the breasts are drooped and i'm almost 100% that i have clicked this in some kind of mod although i cannot even find it now or it doesn't give me the option since i have tried to re-install all my body textures. The only mods that are similar are the high res 4096x4096 face and body textures that give you options including body types normal, oil1, oil2 etc. It's driving me nuts looking at my character with her old granny breasts sagging that far down. I can also remember in the mod that it has the ? that when you click it shows you what they will look like with one being natural which i picked and the other being plastic which looks alot more full and wish that i ddi click. Does anyone have any idea what mod this might be or a work around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have any idea what mod this might be?Textures are just that, textures. Meshes have shape. Most HGEC textures are available separately from the HGEC body meshes. The body shape you choose does not affect the armors shape. Therefore, if the armor looks droopy, that is just how it is. It sounds like you should be using a different body mod. Did you look at TGND? If you are using HGEC 1.1, you were prompted with the shape options during its installation. If you use OBMM to install mods, just reactivate that OMOD. Edit: If that does not work 1) right-click on the HGEC 1.1 OMOD 2) Choose convert to archive. 3) Extract the archive into a temporary folder or use the "extra to <archive name>" 7-zip option. 4) Navigate to the folder that contains the different upper body mesh types, and look at them in NifSkope (double-click on the NIF to load it.) I have not clue what the filepaths for those files are, as it has been a long time since I have looked in that package. I use Robert's female body, but I used to use Exnem. I tried HGEC and TFF, and I am very glad Robert released a female body. I may switch to TGND, but that depends on the mods released for it (at a certain modder I suppose...) Edit: This problem has nothing to do with textures. Search "EVE HGEC." You may like those variations better. The EVE project is all OMOD-Ready (I think) so the installation should be pretty straight-forward. Remember to reinstall your HI-Rez textures after installing the EVE body.

greensmith Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 I would much rather just fix this, it's just 1 file or so but i can't find it or change it no matter how many times i run my omod's again.. I look at my character in custom armor and then the ones in the pictures with the same mods as me and their bodies are alot more pronounced and more full when it comes to the chest, the drooping just makes some armor look silly such as draconic armor. If you check Draconic armor you will see the chest is pushed up but in my game the armor has gone lower down the chest to fit around the chest area and also the back is clipping because of it. Either way do the custom armors for HGE eyecandy work or are supported by those other skin textures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way do the custom armors for HGE eyecandy work or are supported by those other skin textures?It sounds like you are still confused about where textures fit into all this. When modders create meshes, they have to create maps for the meshes, texture maps to make the textures fit appropriately. Different body mods, generally, have different maps. The HGEC body has maps specific to it. Therefore, mods that support HGEC are mods that support those maps. Any texture mod made for HGEC is then compatible with those mods. As I said earlier, you are not talking about one file. Armor meshes replace the upperbody mesh. They are separate meshes with separate shapes. You have to replace the armor and the body. The only other thing that may exacerbate certain effects are KF files. Have you tried uninstalling all of your HGEC mods and just reinstalling them one-by-one?

Yeah that is the first thing i have tried, keep trying to go back to default but no matter what i do it's the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeldarb Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 What style of archive invalidation are you using in OBMM? I use bsa redirection. the body shape is determined by the footfemale.nif, the texture is usually footfemale.dds, but Ozmo uses different hands or feet to change the skins glow and add hair.

Make sure BSA Redirection is set under Utilities > Archive Invalidation in OBMM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
