That makeup is in Additional Paints for Aloy by Paintasketch and hair from The Colour Bar by HardcoreHobbyist. Looks like brunette hair being shined by the purple hologram light.

It’s the Colour Bar – Aloy Hair Dye Mod (Electric Amethyst), and as he mentioned, the makeup is from Additional Paints for Aloy

@hornycopter Hope you're having a well-deserved rest over the Holidays! Was wondering do you think there's any chance to see the Tenakth Dragoon armor made skimpy in your mods? That armor looks SO dope it's begging for a skimpy version

Is the creator of the HC Lara mod for Shadow of the Tomb Raider around? I wanted to thank him for the mod; it's the best mod I've ever played, and also the most complete mod I've ever played. I love playing with her with big breasts. Congratulations on the work and for creating this perfect mod. Thank you, friend, you're a friend.

Screenshots of how the different body paints look on Tenakth Recon. As far as I know there is no way to change the body paint colour. Thanks again for the great mods HC.

 

To use simply replace the Recon body paint texture file (27_444DF000_texture.stream) in HC Aloy HFW - Xtras - BP Customizer with one of the following.

 

27_444DF000_texture.stream - bodypaint mask for Tenakth Lowland clan Recon/Reaver outfits.
27_46BF0000_texture.stream - bodypaint mask for Tenakth Lowland clan Dragoon outfit.
2E_0549D000_texture.stream - bodypaint mask for Tenakth Sky clan Marauder/Tactician/Marshal/Sky Climber outfits.
28_1696A000_texture.stream - bodypaint mask for Tenakth Desert clan Skirmisher/High Marshal/Vanquisher outfits.
2E_210C3000_texture.stream - bodypaint mask for Tenakth Desert clan Vindicator outfit.

 

Recon Default

 

Recon to Dragoon

 

Recon to Marauder

 

Recon to Skirmisher

 

Recon to Vindicator

Sorry Im confused. Ive been trying to figure out the body paint options for a while. In the mods folder on my drive SSD all 5 HC Aloy HFW - Xtras - BP Customizer mod variants are listed. I dont understand where to get the replacement files or what folder to replace it to

You have the Bodypaint customizer mod. That has different variants for how much of the bodypaint is show, default, remove chest, torso or all bodypaint. Assuming your using default, then in the Bodypaint - Default & Crotch Fix folder of the mod, you have a bunch of .stream files. 27_444DF000_texture.stream is the one used by the Recon outfit. So if you want that outfit to use the dragoon paint instead, do this:

1. Copy 27_444DF000_texture.stream into the same folder Bodypaint - Default & Crotch Fix
2. rename the new copy to something like 27_444DF000_texture.backup.stream, so that you still have the original easily accessable in case you want to revert
3. Copy the one you want, so for the dragoon example: 27_46BF0000_texture.stream
4. Rename the new copy to 27_444DF000_texture.stream
5. Pack your mods in the mod manager again to deploy the changes.

Got it thanks! I had just finally got it to work and was going to come back and say not to bother with the explanation. I appreciate it though!

Have you tried putting the body paints into a folder with a different outfit then the Recon? I tried putting them into HC Aloy - OE_VN - Armor S Topless. Didnt load

Dear hornycopter, any chance for Aloy to get propper physics in the future?

 I believe that it was said the current modding tool/game itself is too cumbersome to try and add those systems via modding to warrant the effort it would take. 

[kingcody]

I wish there was a way we could have Aloy in an outfit like this pic... a modified Tenakth Recon style that's literally just draped with a bikini and some string covering her tits and a string-belt that drapes over her ass and legs... modders can it be done? @hornycopter 😍😩

Long time no news, sorry for that - got quite burned out by Nora Huntress outfit.

This outfit I believe is the only one with potential of reusing existing default outfit cloth physics for breast and buttocks physics (because of default necklace and skirt), as we have no modding tools to add completely new physics bones to Aloy's skeleton.

So I've got at the same trap ones again and started to messing with existing bones trying to transfer weights to my body model. 😵‍💫 Big mistake, tedious stuff, sucks all fun out of the modding - can't test shit inside Blender - need pack mod and run game for every miniscuel change. No good results with physics after few weeks - got burned out, didn't touch PC for a while.

Final nail in the coffin at that time on top of everything was problem with body textures - strange artefacts in many places:

 

As I figured out later - Aloy in this particular outfit uses wrong textures, different from any other Aloy's outfits. Most of the body is hidden so problem isn't visible in default version - but error by developers nonetheless. I fixed it, but body textures will have less quality in this outfit still, also some NPCs now have wrong textures instead of Aloy, oh well 🙄

 

Started again only after christmas, had to reduce scope of changes for this outfit - no physics for body, reduced physics for remaining and new cloth parts - just want to finish this damn outfit already. Though there will be a lot of variations of this outfit as always, example of pair for the start:

 

 

So long story short - tried to use existing cloth physics to add body physics, failed, burned out, started again, outfit now is almost ready - need to fix small bugs and make bunch of preview pictures for Mod Manager and also screenshots of final work.

Do you think it could be possible to have outfits for Aloy (Nora, maybe) similar to this?

Hope it'll be still worth the wait 😝

Made myself improvised "green screen":



Making preview pictures for Mod Manager should be now less pain in the ass.

The green screen is definitely a game improvement. Some areas show Aloy in the dark and you cannot make out the outfits full appearance. This is solid!

Faz tempo que não dou notícias, desculpem por isso - fiquei bastante saturado com a roupa da Nora Caçadora.

Acredito que essa roupa seja a única com potencial para reutilizar a física padrão do tecido para a física dos seios e nádegas (por causa do colar e da saia padrão), já que não temos ferramentas de modding para adicionar ossos de física completamente novos ao esqueleto da Aloy.

Então, caí na mesma armadilha de novo e comecei a mexer com os ossos existentes, tentando transferir os pesos para o meu modelo de corpo. 😵‍💫  Grande erro, trabalho tedioso, tira toda a graça de fazer modding - não dá para testar nada dentro do Blender - preciso empacotar o mod e rodar o jogo para cada mínima alteração. Sem bons resultados com a física depois de algumas semanas - fiquei saturado, não toquei no PC por um tempo.

O prego final no caixão, além de tudo, foi o problema com as texturas do corpo - artefatos estranhos em vários lugares:

 

Como descobri depois, a Aloy com essa roupa específica usa texturas erradas, diferentes de todas as outras roupas da Aloy. A maior parte do corpo fica escondida, então o problema não é visível na versão padrão, mas ainda assim é um erro dos desenvolvedores. Eu corrigi, mas as texturas do corpo ainda terão qualidade inferior nessa roupa, e alguns NPCs agora têm texturas erradas em vez da Aloy. Que pena  🙄

 

Recomecei só depois do Natal, tive que reduzir o escopo das mudanças para essa roupa - sem física para o corpo, física reduzida para o restante e novas partes de tecido - só quero terminar essa maldita roupa de uma vez. Embora haverá muitas variações dessa roupa, como sempre, aqui está um exemplo de par para começar:

 

 

Resumindo: tentei usar a física de tecido existente para adicionar física ao corpo, falhei, fiquei frustrado, recomecei e a roupa agora está quase pronta. Preciso corrigir alguns pequenos bugs, criar várias imagens de pré-visualização para o Mod Manager e também capturas de tela do trabalho final.

 

Espero que ainda valha a pena esperar  😝
 

Is it just me, or has the nipple improved?

Not sure it's useful for anyone but modders, can release it separately a bit later. It changes some props in "Burning Shores" DLC so they become bright green, because they are in the background of menu screen. So you only wanna use it to take some screenshots and then turn it back off.
