Poll: Body Types

[TheHawk]

Hi.
I'm interested in what body types people may have installed/ playing with and if possible a reason why.
Considering uploading the armour/clothing ESP's I have already changed to Nehrim, so would be interested in how many might be using the same sort of set-ups I have.

i typically use HGEC in oblivion. in nehrim i use the stock body; however, if someone creates a HGEC total clothing/armor replacer i'll use it. i prefer HGEC because i like the meshes & textures used over BAB, roberts etc. HGEC will work somewhat with stock meshes, just not as well as I’d like. And not well enough for me to use them.

(sorry for necro-ing an old thread)

In not sure what you mean with total clothing/armour replacer. The only HGEC patches for Nehrim ive seen so far are a full-nude-patch and a partial one, with modified armour looks.

[einnashe]

He means a female armor replacer that changes Nehrim-original armors to fit the HGEC body mesh, as opposed to reverting to the stock body mesh whenever they're equipped.

I've never noticed any problem with HGEC and stock meshes working together, though.

i'm saying it doesn't look quite right (IMHO), not that it doesn't work.

For HGEC you can use the EVE HGEC Eyecandy Variants mod for the armour and clothing meshes.

If you have OBMM (use the manual version) installed for Nehrim install the OMOD as you would for Oblivion and only use the EVE_HGEC_BodyStock_and_ Clothing OMOD. That's what I've done and it works on all vanilla and custom clothing and armour. I'm in the process of adding all my favourite armours and other things etc to Nehrim, which is taking awhile, but I'm unlikely to play Oblivion again in the near future.

I've installed the main HGEC files for the actual body meshes as well with Ozmo's face and body textures and it makes a huge difference.

Apologies if I got the wrong message from the previous posts.

This is a vanilla Nehrim armour with HGEC installed.

it works that well? without any toying around with anything (or no more than usual)? wow...

would you mind uploading a compilation mod or something similar, when you've got it finished? i think i'd like that. i'm too lazy to do all the tweaking, & "bashing" myself. & i'm not all that good with monkeys either. (i thought that was a good one, but my sense of humor is an acquired taste )

Sure does. I forgot to mention you will need to re-master the EVE esp though and that's easy with TESGecko. I use the EBE fighter body which is an option with EVE. Also, if you want to use Ozmo's or other hires textures don't install the ones that come with EVE. You get the option to choose not to use them when you install the OMOD.

Well, I don't know if I need permissions, but I suppose just an esp and a list of what I added would be OK. You'd have to download the source files. It depends on what you like though.

As far as armours etc I'm just adding them to a chest (or chests) but I'm going to add Zira's Clydsdale horses and make myself a house which I will release. It will all take awhile though.
EDIT again:
I got sick of the "bashing" and stuff too so most of what I add won't need it....I hope. Monkeys...

other than the very, very basic stuff, i haven't done much modding since the original starcraft, way back when. so i'd appreciate it. thanks.

that was a mess of quotes to fix. *sigh*

more so than i figured. I'm a nut i know

Actually, this discussion has given me an idea. Instead of converting the Nehrim meshes to HGEC, just make the female variants use meshes of other Exnem/HGEC armors.

The main problem, barring permissions, is that a lot of armor mods aren't split into separate parts. If anybody has any ideas/suggestions/requests, let me know.
