Author's Comments:
The Body SE is the offspring of The Body 2.5 featuring multiple changes and improvements.
Modding resources link now includes The Body SE Body Type Edits 3ds DevKit (TBSE_BTE_DevKit).
Check the Files tab for the kit and the mod itself (The author for both is Red).
Features:
- New body type/shape based on The Body 2.5 Type 2 shape.
- Anatomical corrections and various shape improvements (compared to The Body 2.0|2.5).
- Greatly improved geometry and animations.
- FF style -friendlier- skin appearance.
- Hands/feet skin depigmentation on darker tones.
- New body hair options.
- New SFW underwear.
Keep in mind:
- Not all body hair color/skin color combos look -pretty-
- Neck seam is still there. Just like vanilla.
- Au Ra skin shader is now the same as the rest, meaning scales specularity and glossiness values are locked.
- The Body 2.0(not 2.5) skin/scales mods will have to be updated to work with The Body SE. Outfits/3D mods will work just fine.
- Will appear symmetrical on Vanilla/The Body 1.0|1.5 stuff.
- All the NPCs will appear to be using SFW underwear. The reason for this decision is kids characters.
- Flaccid- Smallclothes, Erect- Emperor's.
Technical stuff:
- The Body SE has revamped topology (compared to The Body 2.0|2.5), new shape, and weights.
- Uses Hrothgar shader (don't even try to switch to something else, unless you know what you're doing).
- Each face multi/specular texture had to be edited to match the change.
- Skin material parts A and B are being used for skin textures (material A - vanilla/The Body 1.0|1.5, material B - The Body 2.0|2.5).
- The UV layout is the same as The Body 2.0|2.5 layout.
- TBSE Dev Kit included. Has all the goodies (.psd, .max) for creating mods.
How to install:
- Download the .ttmp installer and import it in TT.
- Pick options.
