Please don't start this shit again, about her face. Default Aloy is a goddess, if you don't like it don't play it or wait for mods.

I think I've answered it before here - first I want to stick with current "Vanilla" body type and make more skimpy outfits - like two or three for each tribe and clan. Only after that I'll gonna think about how, how many and what new body types to add.
Almost any body type is possible - just it will take extra time to sculpt. I can't just transfer them from my TR model.

 

These look amazing and I love all the different variations. You did a great job of balancing sexy and immersive.

 

Where do versions with pubic hair sit in terms priorities for future versions? that's really the one I'm waiting for. 

I imagine its significantly less work then sculpting whole new body types and probably something you could attach  to your current models, and if clipping through the thong is an issue you always just leave it off those variations, or cut away parts that would be coverd. 🌳

 

Thank you for all your hard work and sharing it with us!😀

If the updated Decima engine in HFW is anything like the old one in HZD then any chance of jiggle physics likely depends on being able to transfer the physics from clothing & accessories to her model bones, and you end up with pretty rudimentary "jiggle" as a result.

Yeah, HFW is even harder to mod, so I wouldn't place much hope for jiggle physics for this game. Right now I don't see any solution worth of implementing. Mostly likely a lot of time will be spent - but quality of "jiggle" will be lower than ever in SotTR.

For some reason Aloy now has a colored face and the outfit texture is extending over half the screen, please help

 

Try the solution from bug case "textures look weird or dont load at all"

Will try to figure out something after finish all current outfit updates. Most likely I'll just add pubic hair to body texture for now. Something more realistic will require a lot more time on HFW engine research, don't want to do it just yet.

After adding pubic hair options and stuff...

It would be nice to bring the nude mod to Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered if the modding tools are available which I assume aren't there yet?

But yeah for now do focus on HFW for sure, HZDR later.

Can't seem to get the Mod manager working which is frustrating as the non manager version worked fine. Every time I create a pack it freezes then crashes. When I load the game nothing is changed. 

[VonRaschke]

Pie in the sky wish would be something like Forger for AC Odyssey where you can just toggle off specific parts of Aloy's armor to your own whims instead of needing HC (or other modders) to make specific variants for each armor set.

When you put the mods into the HFW mod manager, click the refresh mod list, then tick the boxes on the mods you want installing then click pack activated mods.

This would be the ultimate dream/goal but with how hard HFW is to mod I'm so grateful that someone like HC has come along and became our hero. He's doing a fantastic job and I can't wait to see what else is install for us.

What worked for me was uninstalling HFW, deleting its folder along with all leftover mods completely, then reinstalling the game. After that, using the HFW Mod Manager worked.

[Procrasturbator]

Just get an error message 

 

"Output not found:

package.20.00.core.stream"

 

Edit 2: Needed to use "browse" instead of pasting the folder address directly

Then I'm sorry to say i have no idea. That's the steps I take when I use the mod manager and it works for me. 

Do you drag the zip file into the mod manager or extract the files into it?

If its the extract one then that's probably the reason. You need to drop the zip file in the mod manager. Other than that, I'm out of suggestions. Sorry.

I've read comments here and at Nexus mods. I cannot get the game to load with the nude choices. The old mods work (where you drag & drop the "LocalCacheWinGame" folder into the game directory). But this new batch only crashes the game.

I am dragging .zip files into the mod manager (nice feature). Then I click the refresh list and select the one option I wish to use. And activate the pack. The menu screen loads. When I choose "Continue", the game crashes.

Try restoring game files AND clearing out MM folder (delete all files except "HFW_MM.exe" and "Decima_pack.exe") before using it again - same as in bug case "Model Broken" your MM could've created backup of already modified "streaming_graph.core" file and trying to add mods to it instead of to clear original file. Modifying already modified "streaming_graph.core" will cause all sorts of model and texture glitches and even crashes.

I'd try keeping things as simple as possible.
 

Uninstall game and mods. Reinstall. Create a mods folder within the game folder where exe is. Move the unzipped folders there. Open the Mod Manager in a different location (maybe?). Use it at the top to locate the exe of game. It should autopopulate with mods. Then choose which ones you want to use. Then click on Pack Activated Mods on the right. That worked for me. I didn't activate the Skimpy outfits, I only have activated at the top the HC face customizer, then below the Nude and Skimpy option.

As I said on Nexus, then I used the Gameplay Tweaks mod to reel in the Oseram Explorer outfit right away, then I went into my inventory and equipped it so I was able to be nude (Aloy, not me!). 😁

unzip the .zip use unzipped folder to drop in to mod manager

I'm having difficulty getting the latest OE outfit to work.  At best, there's no change to the outfit.  At worse, I get eldritch horrors beyond comprehension.  What am I doing wrong?  This occurs when the OE armor is above and below the primary file in load order.

Repeating my sentiment from Nexus:  As Mando says, "This is the way!". That worked great. In fact, I prefer the manual addition to the mods folder. Thank you.

Any way to hide the weapons, yet?

Only with the AIO outfits reducer mod but because that needs reshade installed i think it might interfere with HC's mods.

The steps I followed were for the HFW nude mod (not the outfit reducer).

I was just answering your question about if there's anyway to hide weapons.

Maybe hornycopter will release a mod for that specifically in the near future or someone else that is compatible with any other mod while using the HFW Mod manager obviously.

[Hlamster]

This is da best ass in video games history, Bravo!

I wish only vanilla cute boobas, and then it will become the best mod in video games history.

 

I'm not a fun of Horizon games, but with this amazing mod I will play it with grace. Because of you, Hornycopter! Thank you!

You bet! I did use Noshader4u's AIO Outfit Reducer mod https://www.nexusmods.com/horizonforbiddenwest/mods/94 as Reaper suggested. It leaves like a floating feather, but still has the bow gone which is great! It's a slight multi-step process, but then once you get it I took a picture with my phone (just so I wouldn't have to keep looking back and forth) of the buttons to press to activate or deactivate the hide stuff (I think it's like f3 for weapons, for example). 

You go there, first download the mod from the files tab. Then on the description tab, go download the reshade using the link provided with the bottom full support option. Next open it, find this game, choose the DirectX 11/12, skip next menu, then make sure FransBouma's Shader Toggler option. Keep going until you're done. Then go into the file you downloaded, unzip, and move the ShaderToggler.ini file into the main game folder where the .exe is. Then play the game!

You may see stuff in the top-left of your screen - pressing home will pull up the reshade menu, but I think you can just ignore it if you want. On that AIO description page and also on the Read me text file are the keys you can press to make things do things (it is F3 that disappears weapons, for instance). I haven't messed around with anything else besides the first few since I don't want it to screw up HC's mods!

Others may have much better ways of putting things. That's my experience with it in a nutshell.

So with HC's mods, and this mod I have full nudity now in the nice cinematic scenes, and in regular game play. I am very very appreciative of the modders!!! 😁🥰

Are you using the AIO mod with HC's mods together, if so is there any problems? I removed the AIO mod and reshade when HC released his mods in fear of them conflicting with one another.

Thanks for the help so far runs fine but doesn't load the mods is where I am currently. Ran Decima exe to see if I could figure out a bit more this is what it has.
