CrystalImage Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Just a quick little question since I can't seem to find a straight answer elsewhere and I really want to know. There are a lot of armors that I want to use that are Sevenbase only, but I currently have CBBE installed. Can I install Sevenbase bodies as well, so that I can use those armors, or is it one or the other? Same thing goes for UNP stuff, can I use both that and CBBE?

Oubliette Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 UNP derived bodies are not compatible with CBBE or it's derivatives and vice versa. That means that while nothing is stopping you from downloading mods for conflicting bodies they will not work correctly with each other in your game. There are mods to allow you to use more than one female body mod at a time but they are generally complex and not always capable of handling armors for both shapes as well, nor are they designed to hot swap your character from one body to the other so you can change clothing types. If all you want is the armor, not necessarily on your player character then the easiest way is to install a companion that uses the other body. Some custom races also use specific body mods that make for easy switching around with in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrystalImage Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Alright, so using a follower with a Sevenbase body/ UNP body/ etc. wouldn't cause any issues even when I'm using CBBE and bodyslide presets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saurusmaximus Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 As long as the follower is standalone, meaning it has the body meshes and textures included, then yes you can use the UNP/7B armors with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy420 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) The main reason people don't use mods from other body types is clipping, I've never seen it be a game/save breaking conflict. If you didn't know, Caliente's bodyslide tool, which you should have downloaded with CBBE, has some templates to emulate popular body types there, or better yet you can play with it yourself. I use CBBE because I like the level of customization.... So I run into this too, and when I see an armor I like I get it and try it to see if it's totally screwey, slightly off, or you really can't tell it's not supposed to be there. You'd be surprised how many things made for UNP/7B/DreamGirl etc. work just fine with MOST CBBE builds, it just depends how crazy you go with the sliders. And the answer to your question is no, you can't have more than one body mod at a time. But the answer to your second question is definitely yes, those followers mostly come with everything they need, they don't rely on your mods.

CrystalImage Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 Awesome, thanks for all the help guys. Guess I'll just have to go find a standalone follower so I can use some of the cool armor mods I've seen around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WakahisaSensei Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I'm not the most familiar with it yet, but isn't there a tool that let's you convert armor from one body-type to another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
