Feet And Hands Textures For CBBE

[Guest]

DISCLAIMER:
I'm  not the author of the original body and hands skin textures, the credit goes to Caliente and Ousnius, who made the magnificent Caliente's Beautiful Bodies Enhancer -CBBE- mod for the female characters on Nexus: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15/?tab=files (Thank you guys for this AMAZING modification).
It's NECESSARY to install their mod first to make my modified textures look correctly on the character's body.

 

NOTIFICATION:
I decided to mark this mod as adult content on Nexus. It doesn't contain any nudity in its conventional meaning, however it focuses on naked feet theme, which might be considered as sexually stimulating. All those foot fetishists out there (me included) will probably agree about this matter. On the other hand, since LoversLab is in its huge part focused on sexual content anyway, I thought that I wouldn't place my mod in the adult section here.

Please don't send any messages to the author of the mod on Nexus, in case you think that it's a "stolen" file. The author on Nexus - frigid - is me  .

In case someone would like to download from Nexus, here's the link to my mod:  https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/34344

 

TWO MORE THINGS TO CLARIFY:

1) You don't need to use Bodyslide after installing those texture files, as long as you already have CBBE installed. These textures are really the same thing as the original CBBE files (minus my small additions) and they will behave the same way on the body shape as their CBBE equivalents. Besides, my additions are applied only to the feet and hands, which can't be modified in any significant way in Bodyslide anyway. As far as I know, we have a slider for ankles, but that really doesn't change anything for the body textures.

2) Someone on Nexus brought this into attention, so I feel I should explain one thing about these texture additions and skin tones:
Both palms and soles textures will get brighter or darker together with the whole body texture, depending on a skin tone chosen for the character in the looksmenu (character creation / customization interface). As far as I'm aware it's the game's limitation, because Bethesda apparently made just one skin texture for all female characters and one for male characters (+ "dirty" and "old" options) and then gave us those skin tones which, apart from adding a pink / brown / yellow tone, just make the skin textures darker or brighter along with all their details (they didn't take into account that people with very dark skin tend to have their palms and soles brighter than the rest of their body). Since it works that way in Fallout 4, probably CBBE creators decided to keep the whole skin texture in just one tone without any significant differences. Their original textures just get darker or brighter entirely, depending on the chosen skin tone in-game. So do mine, that's why these additions work best on bright skinned characters, like the lady on the screenshots.
The only workaround I can think of right now would be creating a mod which would load those additions as special overlays on top of the basic body texture. Then it would be possible to create some variations for different races / skin tones, I guess. Unfortunately I'm not a professional modder and I lack skills necessary for preparing such modification, sorry.
Of course, I might have overlooked some things about texture system in Fallout 4. If someone has a better knowledge about this matter, please feel free to correct me.

 

DESCRIPTION:
It's a simple modification of the CBBE body textures for those who like playing a barefoot female character, but they always felt the lack of dirt on their character's soles. I added some dirt textures to the soles, the other additions were just created for my personal use and preference: pink fingers and soles / heels / toes + dark fingernails / toenails. Just thought that I would share this with the community.
These additions are all optional - I made a subfolder structure inside my package with appropriate names, so it's probably quite easy to find your way around, so to speak.
I know the textures aren't perfect - I'm not a professional digital artist, but please consider that I put some time and effort into creating this small modification. If you don't like the result, that's ok, but please try to refrain from any malicious comments. Thank you.
What exactly did I do? I just put some additional textures with dirt on the soles, pink skin parts on both hands and feet and dark nails on top of the original CBBE textures and exported as .dds files in BC7 compression. There are only two files modified by me: FemaleBody_d.dds and basefemalehands_d.dds (in various options, which are contained in my package). I kept the original CBBE resolution of both files: 4096x4096 px.
 
Available options in the package (in separate folders):
01. Feet - Dirty Soles
02. Feet - Dirty Soles + Dark Toenails
03. Feet - Dirty Soles + Pink Soles and Toes
04. Feet - Dirty Soles + Pink Soles and Toes + Dark Toenails
05. Feet - Pink Soles and Toes
06. Feet - Pink Soles and Toes + Dark Toenails
07. Feet - Dark Toenails
08. Hands - Pink Fingers
09. Hands - Pink Fingers + Dark Fingernails
10. Hands - Dark Fingernails
11. Hands and Feet - All Options Together

It's pretty much possible to mix the options, if you want, however some of them probably might look a bit weird together. The best choice would be to combine pink soles and toes with pink fingers, dark toenails with dark fingernails and so on. You can see those options in the image gallery and also in the "References" folder inside my package. In the image gallery there are also in-game examples of how all the options gathered together look on my character.

 

REQUIREMENTS:
Caliente's Beautiful Bodies Enhancer -CBBE- mod from Caliente and Ousnius.

 

INSTALLATION:
The installation is ONLY MANUAL, NO MOD MANAGER SUPPORT, SORRY.
01. Download and install CBBE from Caliente and Ousnius, following their own installation instructions: 
https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15/?tab=files
After the installation you'll have a character textures folder structure inside you Fallout 4 Data folder: 
Data / Textures / Actors / Character / basehumanfemale/. 
This is just an information about where exactly my two .dds files go.
02. Download my .zip file and extract its content to your desired location.
03. FOR FEET: put the "Data" folder from one of my folders (01-07) into your Fallout 4 main game folder (where Fallout4.exe is located) and overwrite any files when asked.
04. FOR HANDS: put the "Data" folder from one of my folders (08-10) into your Fallout 4 main game folder (where Fallout4.exe is located) and overwrite any files when asked.
OR
05. If you want both hands and feet pink + dark fingernails and toenails + dirty soles (in other words: all above options together), just put the "Data" folder from the folder 11 into your Fallout 4 main game folder (where Fallout4.exe is located) and overwrite any files when asked.

 

UNINSTALLATION:
Since this mod replaces two textures from CBBE body textures and I'm probably not allowed to upload the original files here, you'll have to reinstall CBBE or just manually replace these two .dds files in this location:
Data / Textures / Actors / Character / basehumanfemale/ basefemalehands_d.dds
Data / Textures / Actors / Character / basehumanfemale/ FemaleBody_d.dds
with the original CBBE files which have exactly the same names.

 

COMPATIBILTY:
There shouldn't be any issues with other mods, except the ones that modify female body and hands textures. My mod just replaces two .dds files from the original CBBE files structure.

 

ISSUES:
If you happen to have the skin textures messed up on your body, it's at 99% not my modification's fault, since, like it is said above, it only replaces two files with exactly the same names as the ones from CBBE. The file structure is IDENTICAL to the vanilla / CBBE one. It's really as if you just had still CBBE installed, only with some small visual changes in the feet and hands areas. The messed up textures or black shoulder spot on the body are often reported to be caused by CBBE itself conflicting with some game outfits. Also Unique Player mod, while being a very good modification, causes sometimes those skin distortions - maybe because it has a different file structure than vanilla / CBBE. It is good to always check the bug section / sticky posts of each mod that applies some changes to the body meshes / textures and armor / clothing.
First thing to try would be deleting my textures and reinstalling CBBE. If the problem continues, then it's probably the CBBE conflict I mentioned above or other body / armor / clothing mods.

 

SOURCE FILES:
In case some of you would like to play a bit with the modified textures for your own purposes, here are my Photoshop source files, based on the original CBBE textures:

source files.rar

Just please remember that it's always polite to credit the authors of the original files, if you happen to release a mod based on them.

 

CREDITS:

SOME RECOMMENDATIONS:

Unique Player by d_rail - if you don't want most of female npcs in the game look just like your character, then this mod is for you. However there are some bug reports about this mod messing the body textures. Best strategy: look for possible fixes in the bugs section and check out the author's sticky posts.
Barefoot Footstep by GrozaTerroristow - a MUST-HAVE for everyone who thinks that the lack of barefoot sound in vanilla game is immersion breaking.

I think they want to know if we need to run bodyslide after installing this. I think this is just a copy/paste and doesn't involve bodyslide though (not sure). some may wonder if there will be the seams at the ankles but this is just textures and not meshes so I think its a moot point.

Exactly. This is just a replacement of two CBBE texture files. There's absolutely no need to run Bodyslide, if you've got your CBBE body shape already installed. These textures behave exactly the same way as the original CBBE files on the character model. Changing sliders in Bodyslide and exporting new meshes just adapts those textures to the new body shapes in the game - this is at least how I understand the way textures and meshes work together. Besides, my changes apply to hands and feet - body parts that don't have any significant sliders available.

Can you make the dirt and redness as separate overlays that can be added as tattoos  (that would be awesome if you did) .... that way they can fit any skin texture

I'm not sure if that's possible in my case, due to the fact that I simply don't know how to make overlays. Theoretically it seems doable:  https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/30707? , https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/17185 , even with the colored ones (which would be necessary for my additions). It definitely requires a considerable amount of spare time and some technical knowledge. I can try to find some tutorials (if there are any) and see if I can do something about it in the near future, but no promises, sorry.

How to make Overlays tutorial that I found on the Nexus ... might be helpful and the author keeps saying it is not that hard so that's a good sign ?

Thank you! I had a moment to check this tutorial. Unfortunately there are parts that require some coding knowledge - the ones about .json and translation files. I would have to check how you make and arrange those. Also, from what I saw in the comments section of the "mod", the author admits that it's rather very difficult to create colored and transparent overlays at the same time. It might be an obstacle impossible to overcome in my case, since my additions need a soft transition between my texture layers and the basic body skin texture.

Don't worry about the coding part I have coding knowledge and willing to prepare all the needed .json files for you.

That is indeed a setback. Well if you ever manage to overcome this obstacle you can count on me for the .json part

Hello overlot115,

i enjoy to play barefeet as well - so i stumbled over your nice mod.

 

I try to open the .dds files but get an encoding error in Photoshop and Gimp.

 

Is it possible to make the files as .png?

I can then make them .dds after i have edited them by myself.

 

Or maybe give me a hint how i can solve the encoding error if i open them?

 

Thank you for your effort.

Hello Avahashija ,

 

The encoding error could be showing because both texture files were exported with nVidia Intel Texture Works plugin for Photoshop. Not sure though.

I've just uploaded my .psd source files - the package can be found in my description of the mod under SOURCE FILES section. Feel free to use it

 

Cheers!

Sorry for the late reply.

I just tested it and I didn't have any problems downloading the file. Have you tried on other web browsers? I'm using Google Chrome. Alternatively you could go to my nexus page and try downloading from there: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/34344 .

Awesome mod, I got it applied to Kziitd Fusion girl skin. Just installed it in the same manner as for CBBE.
