Skill Based Muscle

[applesandmayo]

I'd still love to see this mod find a way to implement Pregnancy Normalmap Swapper into this. Like as the pregnancy morph increases, ab morphs decrease, and the normals swap accordingly. Might need a few different texture sets to have it not look strange in transition, but still, would be dope.

This is for 3BA. They are called CBBE 3BBB Hands/Feet Fix in Bodyslide.
CalienteTools.7z
If you use another body type I can explain how I did it, it's pretty easy to recreate

Thanks, I do use 3BA - thats awesome

I am so utterly confused by this. After spending all of last night banging my head against the wall testing with new saves on clean load orders, different mod versions, and still having the issues with hands and feet overrides, today I decided to try an extremely simple test. In Outfit Studio I duplicated the hands and feet meshes, removed the texturesets from the duplicates, saved as new Bodyslide project, built the new meshes, and voilà, texture overrides work flawlessly 100% of the time every time. I'm not sure why having another TriShape node in the nif helps with applying the overrides correctly but until it gets sorted I'll be using these custom meshes.

 

 

This is very useful, thanks! I have had the same issue with HIMBO a for a long time. Just followed your instructions and now it's all working just fine.

I wonder how you even came up with this, seems crazy to me.

The normalmap doesn't change on my character, what are the most common problems with normalmap not changing? I'm not sure where to look or what to change.
The muscle sliders work at least. But I had this same issue with another mod that also changes normalmaps

Whenever I equip armor that should still leave some skin visible, it looks like the normalmaps are applying at first but then are wiped a few moments later. Has anyone else run into this? I am using Pregnancy Normalmap Swapper as well but my character has been at an unaffected stage for that mod for some time so I don't think that should be overriding it.

 

Edit: After doing some testing with different armors it seems that with some it stays as it should, and some it wipes. Is there a body slot that could be occupied and causing it to overwrite? I'm using bikini armors remastered so I know for that you have a lot of occupied slots when you wear a full set. It seems that the other armors I have that work correctly have far fewer pieces to equip.

 

Edit 2: Yes it is being interfered with by a equip slot. It looks like whatever slot circlets occupy causes buggy refreshes for the normalmaps if anyone else runs into this. I would suggest a fix but unfortunately I am not very smart.

Amazing mod, wish there was a way to blacklist some NPCs from using it though.

Exclude them from the spid ini file.

Is there a muscle shader set for BnP?

Delete SkillBasedMuscle_DISTR.ini

Or put a ";" in front of the SPID line inside like this -->  ;Spell******

How can I use this only on males?

• SPID
  • The SPID file is set up to distribute to all eligible NPCs, so males and females.
  • If you want only males to affected, use this line instead.

I get some buggy interactions with this mod. Whenever I unequip armor / body / actor reloads the muscle automatically goes up to max and it's then locked there until armor is re-equipped or swapped. Resetting muscle works in outfits, but not when naked. What could be the cause?

No idea why it does that but what would be worth a try is:
- typing "skee erase bodymorph" in commands
- making sure you selected "build morphs" in bodyslide when building bodies

Some info for us would be:
- what body are  you using?
- are you using the default settings in SBM or are you using a custom profile?

[Joshismomsfavorite]

Im unsure why but male morphs dont show up even when i build the body in Bodyslide for HIMBO.
