LE Regular, boring armor for CBBE

[endersblade]

I'm kinda getting tired of people releasing 'armor' sets for CBBE that really only have like an inch of skin covered. Boobs hanging out, crotch and ass out in the open. It's really disgusting, to tell you the truth. I'm sure people get their jollies off from it, more power to them. No, I'm not a prude. I am all for the ones that are tastefully done; I've downloaded several of them. Showing skin is one thing, walking around near naked while claiming to wear armor is something entirely different. Granted, admitting I use the CBBE mod should tell you I have nothing against nudity. All of my female plate-wearers in WoW are currently in plate bikinis :-P

 

I really wish someone would just make some meshes for the major armor sets that actually fit well with the CBBE body. Don't strip the armor to almost nothing, no need to really add anything. Anyone who uses a body mod knows just how bulky the original armor sets are on females, it'd be really nice to see them get slimmed down. Again, nothing fancy required, just get rid of all the bulk!

 

I really wish I knew what I was doing, else I'd do them myself. I've tried several times, both in Fallout 3 and in Skyrim now, to make meshes for armors, and have failed terribly. An artist I am not, unfortunately. I guess that's why I'm so annoyed at the XXX armor mods people seem to be doing; some of them have a real knack for this sort of stuff, and to me, it's getting wasted.

I have to say I agree.

 

Don't get me wrong I love titty and vag as much as the next red blooded hetero male, but sometimes, you just want your character to be in armor that fits, rather than armor that is barerly there.

[Ohdude]

Totally agree with you..if I wanted a nude character I'd run around without armor,with a nude mod.You equip a superheavy daedric armor and it makes you look like a barbarian.. >_<

 

FEMALES IN SKYRIM LOOK LIKE HORSES ANYWAY! :O Modded oblivion babes were much better xD

This kind of applies to all bodies not just CBBE. They just seem to be cutting away the most amount of armor and have it still be called armor. There is no real sexiness to most of these mods. I don't mind these mods, after all no one is forcing me to download them. I just wish more authors could put out armor that was practical or sexy yet covered.

 

Here are a few I like

CBBE - CHSBHC - Dynasty Armor

Lore Friendly Armor Pack

Improved Eisen Armor - Purchasable - Craftable - Improvable

Firstly, I love your avatar pic :-)

 

I'm currently using the Eisen armor myself, because it's basically what I'm after. Form fitting, shows some skin, but not too much. Attractive. I'd just like for someone to actually make the REST of the armor in the game more feminine. I understand that this isn't downtown tokyo or something, girls running around in skimpy outfits and whatnot. It's barbaric, gory, blah blah. I don't care. I can tell you, if I lived back then, I would NOT be fighting in huge bulky armor like that! I'd find/make armor that fits, allows the most amount of movement/dexterity, and of course, make it look nice :-)

 

It's mostly that I want to see it on NPCs moreso than myself. I don't usually play in 3rd person, but it'd be nice to see my companions in better fitting gear, or the baddies I'm currently beating on. It's just an aesthetic thing. I'd be happy if the Dynasty or Eisen sets would randomly appear on NPCs, that would be awesome. But in the meantime, I'd love to see the armors that are currently in the vanilla version of the game get slenderized!

I would actually like to see some vanilla armors refitted for CBBE and maybe a few other body types, with the option of maybe making the skimpy variants. That would be nice and be more fitting to the characters I make that are more prudish than exhibishinist. Like what they did for the Eye Candy, and GUTS body back in Oblivion, Stock clothing altered to fit the new body, then make more revealing variants.

I totally agree. My Oblivion girls:

This is actually why I haven't downloaded any armor mods for CBBE. There's one that comes extremely close to what I would want, but for some unknown reason it looks like they bent the armor out from the chest at the top instead of having it wrap around. so the model's tits are sticking out the top of the armor... I mean wtf? Who would go around dressed like that? It looks like a girl pulled her tits out of the top of her bra and then decided to go slay a dragon. It's not realistic and breaks immersion completely. And that's the set I actually liked the most... Most that I see just look like a bad bondage porno... Edited February 2, 2012 by ImmortalRevenge

Yes a thousand times yes. I like the cbbe body because I'm a perv some of the time. However, most of the time I just want to run around in kickass armor that is at least quasi-realistic. I tried adapting some of the armor but there is something wrong with python on my computer and I just don't have the patience to fix it. We need a Dragonborn among these wonderful modders to make stock armor that fits these great bodies without changing them. Please somebody, my nord lady is cold in that "sexy" armor.
