Might just stay with having both a schlong and a vag to not worry about having to convert all the custom armor mods haha

 

I came across your post here because I've spent tons of time trying a million different fixes to having a vagina appear when using Unique Character.
After HOURS of me trying multiple complicated things, turns out the issue was that there is some mod that somehow conflicts with Unique Character.
I don't know if this was the same issue you had but leaving this to anyone else here, make sure Unique Character is at the bottom of your load order, it fails to load the body .nif files otherwise.

Would any of the current versions work with Tempered Skins? Or would a new compatible version have to be made?

The Tempered Skins textures would need to be edited, and then you'd need to bake new schlong textures with your edited textures. If you want to try it out yourself, I described the process of editing body textures briefly here:

However, if you want to take a crack at it yourself in the meantime, here are some instructions. First, here are some videos of me editing textures in Gimp and Blender. Since you mentioned Blender files I assume you know how to bake schlong textures, so I won't go over that.

 

Here's me painting out the vagina on a diffuse texture:

Here's me taking the edited texture into Blender to get rid of the seams:

As for the normals, I like to take my Diamond Skin normal map and lay it under whatever normal I'm editing, then just erasing the vagina to reveal the already edited Diamond crotch from underneath. It's already seamless so you don't need to worry about seams.

 

MAKE SURE TO HAVE SYMMETRY PAINTING ON

Now, when you edit your textures, don't save over the original! Save your edited texture as a separate png file. In fact, do the same to the original unedited texture as well. When you take your edited texture to Blender to de-seam it, also drag and drop the unedited png as well. After you're done editing the seam, save the resulting seamless texture as a png, taking care to note the compression options. After you have saved your edited texture, select the unedited .png and RESAVE OVER IT WITH THE SAME COMPRESSION OPTIONS.

 

This will make sure the edited and unedited images are the exact same excluding the vagina removal. Now, take both pngs into Gimp, layer the edited vaginaless texture over the original unedited one and go to Filters -> Animation -> Optimize Difference. Wait a short while, and you should get a transparent layer containing only your edits. Make the transparent layer the same size as the canvas and save it as a png. It is this layer you will be using to actually patch the textures. Simply drop the difference layer on the texture you want to patch in paint.net, merge layers and save.

 

Here's my Diamond normal in png form

And here's a difference layer you can use to make your baked schlong normals based on the Diamond crotch have smooth shadows
