Underworld Armor, Sonja Armor HGEC Lower Body Size Expansion
Modder's Resource

This is a very small expansion of the original Underworld Armor-25734 MOD, sonja armor.nif by zertualpro. It is intended as a modder's resource, even though parts of it may be used as a replacer. As such there is no new ESP. You will need to DL and install the resources and ESP from Underworld Armor by zertualpro.

The original, best I could tell was based on a HGEC, B-cup and LL lower body and used an embedded skeleton. The embedded skeleton** has been removed and replaced with the appropriate node set using the SetBody_Reloaded_Blockhead_Edition_1_42_Data resources and gerra6's stand-alone tools, version 89k, and then converted to the original size to the following additional bottom sizes:
S, M, L, LL*, GM, Manga, Manga_W.
Cup size remains a B-Cup.
*LL - Even though the original was an LL bottom, I will typically include and run it through the conversion process so that seems will align with the SetBody set of meshes. This ensures compatibility if the single 'whole' nif is ever broken up into individual parts; upper, lower, hands, feet, etc.
**Embedded Skeleton Removal - Due to the removal of the embedded skeleton and replacement with SetBody Nodes, the in-game behavior of the lower chainmail skirt is slightly different. In the original, the center pieces of the skirt behaved somewhat stiffly with many animations tested. These new resizes will now bend with the legs and body as it moves.
No BBB or BB (B4)
There were no OP1, OP2, or OP3 nodes present in the original armor and I have not added any for two main reasons. One, it is supposed to be a stiff armor and not something 'bouncy'. And two, the parts I am after for a larger mash-up project doesn't warrant adding BBB or BB at this time.
The full armor conversions were all created based on a lattice that was created from the original HGEC B-cup and LL lower body, plus the target HGEC sizes.
All full armor conversions have the same name as the originating nif, so it can be used as a replacer. Additionally this may be compatible with other Underworld Armor MOD additions found on the Nexus, but is untested and unknown at this time.
