Here's a few screenshots, with three different variations of combinations of texture and models. I've separated them by having different outfits on Aloy on the screenshots, so you can easier tell which is which.

Great photos for comparison!

 

Are there non make up versions as well?

would be interested in seeing the first one without make up

Is there a mesh for the Tenakth Recon neck ornament?

I suggest to use presets - they're quite reliable in my experience.
MM still buggy on UI side for now - I've posted my suggestions how to improve UI in Nexus comments section for MM today.

I personally love the mod, I just wish I didn't have to choose between this

 

 

 

And this

 

 

They both look so nice that I would have loved to have them as separate outfit to change in-game.

 

Thanks for your amazing work

That would be really cool for each of the different outfits, if we could a different HC variant to different outfits, or perhaps duplicate the mod across similar outfits. so for example, the nora huntress, nora valiant, nora tracker, etc all use the existing hc nora huntress pack and we just assign each the variant we want in the mm. and do same for the other packs as well. 

 

i have no idea how easy or hard that would, if it as simple as changing file names, or if it introduces a whole bunch of weird texture conflict. but hopefully it could be a good way to add to the existing line up of outfits while making life easier for HC.

Unfortunately there is no easy way of replacing one outfit with another as far as I know. HFW is quite restrictive and unfriendly for modding overall - that's why you don't see many outfits that are completely different from default ones.

 

In the meantime - thanks to Johnny Dazzling custom head models now finally work correctly with all facial expression - so I've made quick update to my HM Customizer:

Example of normals recalculation during facial expressions for eyelids.

Well, I just get a pixel explosion on the outfits, the hairs seem to apply but the body is one large pixel explosion.

Barestrands works fine, it's different hairstyles I was having problems with. I am very happy with this bimbo-looking style for now, blonde with barestrands, omega face and make up Thanks anyway!

Anyone able to get the jiggle nude mods to work for sotTR? I am running a 4070 ti super with 7800x3d 64gn ram

@hornycopter Is there an easy way to mod eye color, like changing a texture file, or is it an ordeal?

At this point she won't be Aloy anymore. She'll be just another custom Skyrim female protagonist fighting dino-robo dragons.

I haven't looked into it myself, but I think other modders tried to do so few month ago. As far as I can remember - it can be done in theory, but right now replacement can't be completed in fully correct way.
 
To change eyes color, besides replacing main texture, we also need to update some info inside eyes .core file (table of content for eyes asset) - but current modding tools can't update this specific info for now. Hopefully we'll get few more updated for the tools to mitigate this problem.

One more caveat - even if we manage to replace eyes textures for ALoy - textures are shared for bunch of NPC, including some main ones, so they gonna have different eyes color too.

Am I not allowed to have her look how I want... in this character modding thread? What is your actual point?

Yeah, so a far cry from dropping in a texture file.

Not worried, personally, if it replaces other NPCs. I was just thinking normal eye colors like blue or brown. Wouldn't really matter(to me) if other NPCs had their eyes changed.

Thanks for the reply!

Calm your tits. Nobody's saying that you're not allowed to mod her, genius.

@hornycopter Any plans for wet skin for Shadow of the tomb raider?

So, you have no point.

You're just a troll who wants to make comments when someone makes a character look a particular that you don't approve of, and if they respond back you tell them not to respond and insult them.  I think I got all the information and interaction that I need from you.
