Bodyslide/Slooty Vault Suit recolour mod issues?

[shinobi2204]

So I'm using the slooty vault suit atm, with custom bodyslide settings, you can see a pic here, note the SuitDreams belt:

so I then added this mod (plus the male suit mod it requires), which allows you to colour the suit at a work bench:

When I loaded I noticed that the body shape had changed, as you can see here in the picture the belt is clearly sticking out because the body is now too small:

I don't know why this is happening, the recolour should only be changing the texture and not touching the mesh. Also the bodyshape used wasn't the original slooty bodyslide settings either.

 

I also noticed the same thing when I tried to use a mod that let you craft different coloured versions of the X-92 courser armor mod.

 

I really want to use different variations of these two suits so if anyone can tell me whats gone wrong I will be extremely grateful.

ok, I tried a direct replacement recolour, and it works, I just need to remember to change it back when I change characters.

 

So its definitely something in this recolor/male suit mod, so if anyone can work out what its doing that would be great, I really want to have different versions of these suits.

 

Ive also noticed that the Nanosuit mod doesn't seem to want to accept bodyslide changes, I must have a mod that's interfereing with these bodyslides...don't know which one though

[shinobi2204]

ok I tried something else, I reinstalled the original slooty mod and that worked fine, I installed the recolour/male suit mod and that retained the 'interesting' proportions the original slooty mod had.

 

But once again, as soon as I reinstalled the bodyslide settings and tried to apply them I got Miss Skinny Britches, once I deactivated the recolor/male suit mod the bodyslide settings were applied.

 

Can someone look closely at the esp and materials files, there must be something there that clashed with the bodyslide settings

So its definnately the male suit mod that's affecting the female bodyslide setings, anyone have any idea why the male suit mod affects the female suit bodyslide settings?
