Bob's Boots Unofficial UNP & NiO & Sexlab Conversion 001

This mod contains the complete Bob's Boots 8.3 mod, converted and updated to the fit UNP mesh and make use of the NiO Heels system. HDT Heels is no longer required! The meshes have been resized to fit the (U)UNP body -- though with the many variants there are of this body, I cannot guarantee that there won't be any clipping. In my game the boots all seem to fit on various body weights.

I have made minor tweaks to the material settings to make the gloss and shine more similar to that of other widely used rubber gear in Skyrim. Additionally, I have shrunk all textures to improve performance (that caused a loss in texturing detail on the zippers but lowered the overall file size by several hundred MB).

I am releasing this conversion mod here under the blanket permission stated in the development thread by its original author, beazalbob69. Bob has not logged in here since last year and I hope he is still okay with others releasing edits of his work. Bob, if you find this and would like me to remove it for whatever reason, please let me know and I will pull this conversion immediately.

Two esp files are included, one with and one without dependency on Sexlab. Activate only one of the two esp's, they are idential apart from the Sexlab requirement. The "w Sexlab" esp adds the NoStrip keyword too all boots so that actors will hopefully keep the boots equipped during Sexlab animations.

Attention SexLab users: As Ashal kindly mentioned in the support thread, the separate "with Sexlab" .esp that is currently included in the download is not actually necessary. Please don't use it, I'll upload a modified single .esp for the mod soon that will have the same functionality and will not depend on the Sexlab esm.

Attention CBBE users: The original Bob's Boots were designed for CBBE and they can still be used with this NiO conversion with a bit of work. Keep the meshes (and optionally, textures) from the original download and use the the esp from this download. You will however have to add the Equippable Transforms to all the boots's meshes with NifSkope manually or the heels will sink into the ground. See the chapter "Equippable Transforms" on the Racemenu mod page for details.

Attention UUNP and Bodyslide users: Fellow Loverslab member Jerok has created a set of UUNP sliders for the all of Bob's Boots. You should use them instead of this conversion from me if you are using a UUNP body built in Bodyslide. Jerok's conversion also removes the HDTHH dependency.

You can download the UUNP conversions / sliders here:

Installation:

1. Recommended: Don't use my mod! Instead, get the UUNP sliders from here http://www.loverslab.com/topic/69192-jrconversions-uunp-hdt/
2. Activate the .esp from Jerok's mod, batch-Build models in Bodyslide, done!
   

Or, if you really want to use my mod and don't want to use Bodyslide and stick with standard UNP instead:

1. Uninstall any existing versions of Bob's Boots if present
2. Install this version using your favorite mod manager
3. Activate (only!) one of the two esps provided (with or without Sexlab integration, see above)
4. Do not activate the "w Sexlab" esp, it will be removed with the next update. Use only the other esp which will receive Sexlab functionality with the next update (see above).
5. Ensure that your have RaceMenu (or when using ECE, a separate installation NiOverride) installed
6. Have fun! The boots will still be in that chest behind the blacksmith's in Whiterun
