Slot 56 resizing breasts without chastity bra, and missing DD nipple piercings

[scorpionzy]

I'm using Immersive Jewelry, which uses slot 56 (also the chastity bra slot) for left bracelets. At first I thought it was a body issue because of the piercing issue. The DD piercings would equip, but be hidden in my character's breasts. I could see them briefly swing outside of the breasts by walking around. Now, I don't even see that. (Perhaps bc of reinstalling mods, and rebuilding the bodyslides?) I've reinstalled 3BA, rebuilt all my female bodyslides, tested different body textures, etc. I also turned off the HDT resizing of the breasts in the DD MCM, and the breasts are still being resized & reshaped when something with slot 56 (that isn't a chastity bra) is equipped. The left pic is my personal 3BA preset, and the right is the resized breasts because of the left bracelet. Both pics are supposed to have the DD nipple piercings equipped.

The breast resize from slot 56 isn't preventing other piercings from being shown, as the HDT piercings, Piercings of the Divines , and Ayleid piercings still appear on the nipples. (Shown here on the test subject character.)

My DD nipple piercings don't show whether or not the breasts are resized. I've also made sure to (re)build all available 3BA DD, rather than the CBBE version. (Piercings of the Divines seem to use slot 56 as well, and also cause a resizing issue. This still occurs even with the patch to make them Devious Devices, which doesn't specify slot 56. Changing it to slot 51 didn't work, either - even upon acquiring a new pair.)

I can potentially play without a left bracelet, but I just really enjoy running around as a naked mage. Being able to enchant extra pieces of jewelry makes this far more viable, especially once a character's enchanting gets to max level. There's just something about steamrolling through bandit encampments while nude. 😄

 

Edit: cloaks (slots 40/46) also cause the breast resizing. (40 is tail, and 46 is armbinders/yokes/cloaks.) It's not really a big issue with the goal of a naked mage, tbf. I also can't equip anything from the HDT piercing set on my current save after reinstalling the mod. I'm guessing it's an issue with doing that in the middle of a save, as the test character can equip them just fine with some minor positioning errors.

 

tl;dr: I'd really like to prevent the breast changes due to slot 56 non-chastity equipment, if possible. I'm less worried about the DD nipple piercing issue, but it'd be nice to fix as well.

found additional slot(s) that resize breasts

Figured out the breast resizing problem. It was the ORefit function in OBody. I still haven't figured out the DD jeweled nipple piercing issue, but it's livable.

 

Edit: I think the main piercing problem was that I had both DD SE/AE and DD NG active - I disabled the SE/AE version (I finally realized the NG has all the DD parts (Integration, Expansion, etc)). After I had only NG active, I rebuilt the bodyslides (for what feels like the 10th time). Seems to have worked - I can finally see nipple piercings.
