Lower body armor clips inside hips/crotch when equipped

[roulk]

I've been having this problem for a long time and nobody else seems to know how to fix this-- I'm starting to wonder if I'm the first one to have this problem. 

Whenever I equip any armor that goes below the waist, like a thong or whatever, it doesn't appear over my character's body like it should: it instead goes inside of her with only the front of it clipping out. At first I thought it was because my argonian lady was too thicc, but I recently tested it on my follower for grins, and it happens to her too, she's not even that hefty.

I don't have any issues when I equip BOTH a top and bottom accessory, as I put the aromor through bodyslide and had them rebuilt to fit the presets I made for my character. And they also fit my follower -- I don't know how, but I'll take it. With both of them equipped, everything looks fine. But if I take the top off, then the bottom clips inside of her. 

I have some visual examples to show, only the last one is showing the problem

 

completely naked:

 

wearing only a top

wearing top and bottom

wearing only a bottom, with the clipping/inside issue happening

 

I am using the Amazing World of Bikini Armor Remastered, I used the batch build and morph option on the entire group, which is why the top armor works. Not sure why the bottom armor is doing this for both my main character and my follower (and I'd assume all NPC's as well). I looked around the website, saw someone talk about how SoS caused some issues and how refreshing it fixed the problem. Tried that, nothing. Also heard some talk about "slots" for equipment that might cause some issues, but I don't know what that means. 

Obviously, I'm at a loss for what to do about this. Anyone got any ideas?

My guess is it's a bodyslide issue, since you can still see the bottoms. try building them separate instead of batch building; oh and might be worth checking that 'build morphs' is selected.

 

you don't need to worry about SOS causing issues for your problem, since the issue with SOS is where the bottoms and top can't be equipped at the same time, because the schlong occupies the same body slot as the bottoms, this is fixed by setting the main armour piece i.e the top, to be revealing, this changes the slot the schlong is equipped to.

 

(To quickly explain about the body slots, they are basically the nodes on the skeleton that armour and clothing are attached to, eg. slot 33 is the main slot for armour and clothing, which is what vanilla armours use, so on and so forth). 

 

Sorry if this is a bit lengthy, but to reiterate, check bodyslide for the bottoms being built to the same shape as your character's body.

Hope this helps

Not exactly. Slot 33 is hands, where gloves, gauntlets and such stuff goes. 32 is the body slot where armour/clothing goes.
