I need help or pointers for Confroming Piercings in BodySlide.

[Sorrow_421]

So I wanted to make my own piercings. Vag, Navel, Nipple, I have a problem with the Nipple no matter the shape of the piercing. Be it Barbell or Ring. I can make the Vag and Navel piercings bigger and conform them of the body without stretching like crazy or loosing their shape. No matter what option I use in BodySlide for conforming piercings that are in the nipple area they either get stretched or look like they melting. What I want to ask is how did any of you conform nipple piercings without making them look like abominations. I know that there are a lot of vertices in the chest area and a lot of sliders for breast, areola, and nipple. Belly and vag have nowhere the same complexity or sliders as the others. But there has to be a way to make them keep their shape. Or is it because I made them bigger I assume they attach to more vertices thus stretching is there a way to make them just attach to the nipple and follow their shape?

Something like this might be tricky to do in OS. I'd say ideally you'd have the entire piercing uniformly weightpainted with the exact same value as the point where it is attached. With the... lets say more userfriendly or simplied tools of OS, this is not an option. However, you may get somewhat close by doing the following:

1. Use a huge radius brush when painting the piercing.
2. Set the color (strength) of it using the brush strength slider, only click once. Undo if it doesn't match the nipple color. You'll have to eyeball the strength, or screenshot it and do a pixel comparison if you're really picky about it.
3. Make sure the piercing does not have weight paint from any other bone than the one that affects the nips. You may even consider testing with weight paint from only the outermost boob bone, usually L Breast03 or something along these lines.

1. Select the nipple piercing and activate the slider, which is crap.
2. Menu -> Slider -> Clear Slider Datat (don't delete the slider)
3. Leave the slider active. Now you can turn on the gizzmo with F and put the piercing in the right position. Use the mask to position the piercings (if there are 2) individually.
4. When you're done, press F again to deactivate the gizzmo and test the slider - it now works without deforming the piercings.

Unfortunately, you have to repeat steps 1 to 4 for each slider you don't like.

@Andy14@traisonThanks for the reply! I will try both ways, I still have to learn more so more you know the better I guess. Again thank you for taking time to guide me to somewhere. I have some pointers now. Cheers!
