Need help getting male inflation to work well

[Connector196]

So I've been trying to get inflation to work for males in a similar fashion as it does with females. Of course, the females are easy since they are what inflation mod authors probably had in mind in the first place. I've tried using SAM Light, HIMBO and SMMB and I've gotten the best results so far with HIMBO and SMMB. My only problem is that I don't want to use NIOverride to inflate actors since it usually tends to come out ugly and very weird (it's like a parasite just growing out of the belly lol). I would prefer to use bodymorphs to inflate my characters, however I don't know many male bodies with belly and breast support that share the same sliders as CBBE and BHUUNP. It would be great if they did share the same sliders since I wouldn't have to worry about anything and it would work straight out of the box as long as male inflation is supported. I made custom .json files for HIMBO to work with SexLab Inflation Framework and it worked splendidly, but it only seemed to work for Egg Factory. When I tried using it with Fill Her Up Baka Edition, only the females inflated while the males did not. I'm still very confused on whether FHU Baka Edition even supports male inflation or not since the option is there but it doesn't work... All I'm asking is what I need to do to have male inflation (what body to use and what to do) without using NIOverride and step-by-step instructions on how to do it. I've been trying to wrap my head around this for a month now, but I still can't figure it out on how to make it work.

I can't help with finding a body morph solution, but I have gotten FHU baka edition to work with SL Inflation framework AND NIOvverride, unfortunately with that, it still has that tumor look or parasite which you aren't looking to use ?. But just want to confirm FHU Baka inflation working on males.

Thank you for replying! I've been doing my own research as well, and it seems there is not currently a good solution to using male bodymorphs with inflation; however, the author of HIMBO, Kreiste, has informed me through a discussion on another topic in his comments section (lol) that HIMBO most likely will be getting a belly bodymorph similar or identical to the "PregnancyBelly" slider for CBBE and UNP. If this is true, and HIMBO V5 comes out with the bodymorph, then there would be virtually no effort required as the morph would be named the same as the female ones! This would be good since that would mean (in theory) a lot of inflation mods would work out of the box for males.

 

So in the mean time, I'll be waiting in anticipation for V5 of HIMBO to come out so I won't have to see the abomination from hell that is NIOverride, and instead have a nice, smoother belly lol. If I recall correctly, the only other body replacer that already does this is SMMB, but it is highly incompatible with custom races and pretty much any textures besides the ones that are specifically made for it. HIMBO V5 would be the first male body replacer (at least that I have heard of) that has male inflation support and works with virtually any SOS texture.

This also means, unfortunately, that people who choose to stick with SAM Light will not have bodymorphs and will have to remain using NiOverride unless something similar comes out for SAM.

Ohh you're welcome! That is exciting about HIMBO - I really like SAM but I will check out HIMBO on a different mod profile with your setup you mentioned with SMMB just for curiosity. Also the SAM body works with hentai pregnancy I recently discovered although it still requires NIO - but the breasts change into HUGE man-boobs XD It's great.

Hello, I see your question and i have interesting solution.

First of all, FHU works with morph - PregnancyBelly

If you want HIMBO to work with FHU you've to create slider and called it PregnancyBelly in outfit Studio

Than you should make changes in body with this slider.

After all you should set this body as a default

If you found all of this too hard, you can contact me, I'll send you HIMBO version for FHU with all requirements and modlist for working. 

I don't know, is it possible to make FHU work with another sliders, but if i found something, I'll write (It is necessary for refitting armor, because vanilla Himbo does not refit armor for new sliders)
