chajapa Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Still new to this. Trying MANY things. Right now I'm using the HDT 7B beta and the Bounce Kit 3.1 for xml. These seem to be very well matched. If I change body mesh to a 7B-TBBP or some other 7B, I seem to get a change in the movements of the breasts. Now... I'm not a modder, so I'm asking... is this due to different weight paints on the different body meshes? Or does HDT ignore the mesh weight? Just wondering 'Cause it seems to me from all the experimenting I've been doing, that an xml that works great for one body or mesh, doesn't seem to be so great for a different one. Almost like you want to custom tailor an xml for a SPECIFIC body mesh.
blabba Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Yes, the weight paint effects hdt.xml files. You want nice clean weight paints on the parts your adding HDT physics to as well.
chajapa Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 I've also discovered that I suck at BodySlide. I want to use the HDT body, but I like the 7B body. I thought I configured a body in BodySlide using HDT body but when I created the body there were horrible seams and gaps and crushed parts everywhere. Back to the drawing board on that one Oh! And... "clean weight paints" ... means... no weight paints? Or just really good weight paints? I have no idea what "clean weight paints" means
blabba Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 'Clean' Weight paints just means 'good' weight paints in the sense that you get rid of EXCESS weight. Usually for HDT it's a good idea to have a max strength of around .3 -.4 and to remove weight paints from excess areas. (Unless of course your going for a specific effect or something) For example, in normal TBBP butt paints, the butt and part of the upper thighs were weighted to the butt. This has an unseemly effect when used with HDT because if you increase butt jiggle to be more 'noticeable' then you will also have part of your thigh 'jiggling' and flexing unnaturally as well. For the HDT body and 7base versions I did, I 'cleaned' it by removing the butt paint on the thighs. So now only your butt jiggles properly. Same thing about the Breast01 paints, their great for TBBP animations, not so good for HDT physics (remove them as they are redundant). Hope that helps!
Stevierage Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I'll just throw this out here. They're just multiple 7B bodies i messed around with adding different weight paints then ran through mesh rigger by gerra6. They are not in correct folders or named correctly so you will need to rename and put them in the right folder. Some have the Breast01 and some don't, some have a bit more weight round the butt or don't have a belly painting/node, one has pussy weights. They are only test bodies just to see what different weight paints with different xmls effects they have. 7B test bodies.rar

Just to let you know there is nothing atm that can make use of the pussy bone weights and these may be redundant. 7base Bombshell_0 pussy weights.nif7base Bombshell_1 pussy weights.nif
