[mod] Character Body Overhaul

I had something like this happen several times when I was unsubscribing and resubscribing steam mods to try & fix that high mercenary count/price bug. Except all I could see was the top of their head and rest of the body was melted on the floor. Copying my backup folders back into the game directories did not fix the problem.

 

I can't find out why it happens but I always fixed it when  I reinstalled my game and deleted the paradox  folder and just installed the mods from scratch again. 

Basically mine was fixed by total wipe and reinstall.

I had the same problem the other day. The source was outdated/redundant files from a previous version of CBO that hadn't been overwritten by newer versions (e.g. when a previously separate file is incorporated into another).

I did a little tweaking to the breast file and found how to make the breast growth curve separate of the regular body growth curve by adding a new growth "age_preset_tops". Here's the file if you want to check it out.

Won't install? It should be in zip file format. All you need is to unzip just like the rest. The mod and folder should be there.

It is a CBO version with less extreme proportions, so the characters will look more or less like in the vanilla game. 

 

Which file(s) do I have to edit in order to reduce the breast sagging? I'm playing with the Vanilla version and my 20 years old female rulers breasts sag like she was 60...

Na that code means something different in that context. What you are describing are age presets. For that code the left hand side represents gene strength. The right hand side represents attribute value. This type of curve is new to the royal court update, the aging presents have been around since release that's why you found that explanation.

 

Hey @Mange2020, I have a couple of questions:

 

1. What does this code in the penis genes mean? 

 

age_presets = {
    age_preset_ken_doll = {
        mode = multiply
        curve = {
            { 0.00 0.0 }
            { 0.05 0.6 }
            { 0.10 0.9 }
            { 0.15 1.0 }
            { 0.17 1.0 }
            { 0.18 0.0 }
        }
    }
    age_preset_nudity = {
        mode = multiply
        curve = {
            { 0.00 0.0 }
            { 0.17 0.0 }
            { 0.18 1.0 }
        }
    }
}

 

2. How do I tweak the breast genes so that the maximum (esp. with voluptuous trait from Carnalitas) is just a little bit smaller? I just think the boob sizes look too big.

3. Can I only swap one of the body meshes, and not add one as an intermediary between "slim" and "muscular"?

Can't answer for the maker but the carnalitas adds additional size to the breast gene (+3 soooo 4x bigger than vanilla) so it's affect is separate of the breast gene.  I posted some files on that chat that improved on what they had there for my liking. But in the breast gene it's the bottom number on each's _size_max numbers.

Не могу ответить за производителя, но carnalitas добавляет дополнительный размер к гену груди (+3, тааак, в 4 раза больше, чем у ванили), поэтому его влияние не зависит от гена груди. Я разместил в этом чате несколько файлов, которые улучшили то, что у них там было, на мой вкус. Но в гене груди это нижняя цифра в каждой из цифр _size_max.

Hi. I didn't rework the female model much from your character body overhaul mod. I have a request to you, can you replace the model in your mod with this model? If possible.

Go to download section of the mod. Make sure you download CBO or CBO Vanilla with CBO clothes 1 and 2. All three files are require for the mod to work properly.

[Logh]

Carnalitas is required to load this correctly, *but* in the same time it says that it is outdated for Royal Court. Is there any version of Carnalitas adapted to the current version of the game?

Ooh thanks, I'm gonna look at the Carn breast gene and see how to tweak it to make it look more to my liking. Can you share your work (on either the Carn or CBO files) so I have reference?

Not quite accurate. Carnalitas doesn't have a breast gene. It has a portrait modifier. If another mod has a bust gene it won't be additive it will overwrite.

A gene groups together a set of attributes and places each on a curve. The gene strength is a number between 0 and 1 that tells the game where along the curve the character is. Portrait modifiers change gene strength. The game can't go above 1 or below zero in gene strength. If it does it produces an error message. 

TLDR it's triple not quadruple, Carnalitas' tit traits don't increase the maximum breast size. It sets it so if the character has the voluptuous trait you automatically get the biggest size possible in CBO. If you want an example of a different way to do the carn tit size in a different way you can look in 00_penis_size in CBO. It would work with Carnalitas' tit sizes if you just change gene_bs_penis_size to gene_bs_bust

where would 1 find such a file? I cannot find it! I don't like the proportions this mod creates (no hate) I just want vanilla bodies with the slits and shafts (those mods are not working anymore)

Edit: i'm stupid, it's in the download files. Sorry

I'm currently having an issue where when i get done creating my ruler and start the game, all the body modifications i've done (height, weight, breast, ass) size get reset. Anyone know what causes this?

Are you using physical attributes mod?

That will be the issue, it does something and attributes its own values n weights to genes. I could never figure out what the mod is actually even supposed to do so just removed it as it messed with my custom body configs.

I think the reason people seem to like it is that it allows you to see a character's height and weight allowing them to better conceptualize the people in game. Also the events that are available in debug mode allow you to have greater control over the way the people in game look. 

I've also created a genetics system that allows the various values to be inherited, and also results in fewer extreme proportions (it may seem counter intuitive but with CBO I want to increase the max size, and with physical attributes I make that size rarer, but still existing).

While the calculations that went into displaying a realistic height and weight were surprisingly complicated (reverse engineering a BMI curve based on height measurements, stomach circumference, average muscle percentages, based on the idea of weight 50 being "obese" as defined by paradox) for me most of the value is in being able to reference a person's appearance in game script. Even though the game can display tall/busty etc. characters there's no way to pull the data in the game code. The mod replaces those values with something that you can directly reference. CBO, Physical Attributes, and Coetus Anima were originally one mod, but I tend to aim too big, so to make myself release stuff I try to separate things that could stand on their own. Coetus Anima was released but it was kind of half done and I belatedly realized I couldn't finish it without the cultural stuff that royal court just added.
