Hip gap using CBBE v3M

[hopventure]

I'm hoping there is a quick fix to this, I probably installed something wrong.

I installed the CHSBHC body physics mod then copied over it with CBBEv3M. It works beautifully except for one problem...

So what did I do?

Is this a problem with using the wrong textures or using the wrong mesh?

You can see through the model if you get the right angle. I notice this same problem while using the Sovngarde Steel Armor.

Did CBBEv3M come with a texture?

That's odd, there may be some sort of patch out for that problem or you may try overwriting the files again. I would recommend Caliente's CBBE v3.2 and use the Bodyslide utility to give you her version of the Mak body. It's pretty close, and you can also use her Vanilla Outfits mod with Bodyslide so any vanilla armors you wear will match perfectly. Any CBBEv3M armors will match pretty close as well, given that you don't change the sliders.

 

I only recommend it because I've never had any problems with it, and Bodyslide has a body preset that works with BBP (Breast and Butt Physics), there is also a mod out there that has Mak's Remodelled armors converted to be used with Bodyslide and BBP.

I found out what it was! At least partially.

 

The CHSBHC body uses a slightly different mesh than any of the CBBE models.

I'm not sure if the newer version of CBBE covers this area, but I'll check.

I'm thinking it might not fix it unless the UVs match exactly. Technically the gap area is data that doesn't exist, which is why it appears as a hole in the model.

If version 3.2 of CBBE still doesn't cover those gaps I have the tools available to try and fix the normals.

Called it... 5 days ago...

 

Just get any CBBE compatible body textures and overwrite the old CHSBHC ones.

I forgot to check it. I wasn't notified that I had gotten a reply.

And no, v3M didn't come with textures.

I fixed the issue by copying the normals from fsubound82's Better Privates texture pack (and making some small tweaks to the diffuse map).

My bad, thanks for the comments anyway.

i had this problem with CBBE so i deleted it and downloaded 3.2 and it fixed it for now

I was having the same hip problem using CBBE. The solution I found was to use HDT physics extensions but Remove CHSBHC - BBP - Nude and Jiggly Mod. This solved all the hip seam issues I had when my player character was nude and also NPC's.

I met same problem with unpb body when wearing merta black rose armor

I know this is old topic, but maybe it will pop up again and I hope for the answer:

 

I am asking about the "hip texture gap" in respect to female characters - my own character doesn't have seamlines or whatever. Then again, when I strip nude any of the npcs / follower chars - they do have the missing texture in hips area...
