Most of the VOs in FCR seem awesome from the videos I've watched except for the female companion who while not near professional quality is still somewhat better than some of Bethesda's own official voices in the past!

In the end I know I won't download it unless it adds a vanilla body option but I'm glad to see such a huge mod featured here...even if it did start as - or still include - pure eyecandy and slootiness.

It doesn't require it but textures look messed up without it. I know CBBE isn't inherently slooty (despite it usually being used that way) but I prefer vanilla bodies in FO4 and I wouldn't want to look at all the messed up textures.

CBBE has a vanilla shape option that only adds textures. If you're worried about the nudity it also has a nevernude option.

Good times.

There's a sticky post explaining the rules about comment spamming. Out of 129k downloads we've only had to block 2 people, which is a testament to how awesome the Nexus community is. This particular user was initially not pleased that his bug report (which was already covered in the mod documentation troubleshooting section) was moved to the bugs section. Edited by Thuggysmurf

I'm sorry, but you're just misrepresenting the situation.

I made an entire reasonably well written post about the mod and at the end I asked one single question about an issue I had which I was curious to know if it was related to FCR and you moved the entire post over to the bug tracker and closed it saying it wasn't related to FCR.

After a week I reposted my post minus the question at the end and was promptly banned.

The whole experience reeks of whitewashing to me.

Bug report is still there, still open, with your comments and our responses, for anyone to read and draw their own conclusions. You reported bugs related to 1) Spike, 2) Ownership of items, and 3) Glowing Sea name showing in German. So your post was moved to the bugs section, like the sticky post said it would be.

We responded to the issues you raised, providing links to the mod documentation. After you pushed the issue, we then stated, in the bug report thread:

"We've tried our best to provide all the mod info, Q&A, and troubleshooting help we can on the mod page. We realize many users will not read the mod page, the sticky post at the top of the comments, or most of the terminals in game, and come away confused by certain lore aspects or game-play elements. That's okay, the mod isn't for everyone. It's possible you might find more happiness with another mod on Nexus or making your own."

Not sure why you feel the need to keep pressing the issue. Lots of great mods out there, surely some will be to your liking.

Yeah, sorry about that. CBBE and vanilla use different UV maps, which makes textures look weird on certain outfits that show more skin. We had a choice: use vanilla only armors/clothing, and then certain skin textures would look weird for anyone with CBBE installed. Or use CBBE armors/clothing, and certain skin textures would look odd for people not using CBBE.

CBBE is highly customizable, the most popular mod on FO4 Nexus, and most outfits on Nexus are made for CBBE, so we elected to go with CBBE outfits in order to make the majority of users happy.

FCR has 10-20 hours of gameplay. If you don't have CBBE installed, the bathing suit NPC's in Club Fusion (15-ish minutes of gameplay) will look weird. Otherwise shouldn't be much of a difference.

There's a few Let's Play YouTube videos that play the mod without CBBE if you want to check those out.
