Getting back to Skyrim Which body to pick.


Recommended Posts

Hey all long time no see :)

 

I'm currently getting back to Skyrim and I want to ask which body replacer to pick since there is really tons of them to pick from :D

It doesn't matter what I think! :lol:

 

But since you asked.... ;) Manga is weird and so cartoonish. 7Base would be nice if the tits didn't look like they got a cheap boob job from a surgeon with poor eyesight. That's just my tastes, though.

 

I generally use UNP with TBBP, but lately have been rocking UNP Top Model with TBBP. It's all a matter of taste really. I prefer my characters to look like someone you might see in the real world.

It really depends on taste.

 

There's no best body type.

 

What do you want? Realism? Disproportionately Large/Small bodies and body parts? Smooth, Athletic, Bodybuilder?

 

You also need to consider the type of armor/clothing/outfits you want and their availability.

 

I find CBBE to have the most options in that respect but often at the cost of only having medium to lower res textures.

 

UNP seems to have less clothing options but generally at much higher res textures, more realistic textures.

 

 

There's a body changer mod that lets you switch multiple body types while in game but there's a question of stability issues, depending on what type of rig you're running.

The rule is still out on that I think.

My current favourite is UNPBO, the 7B variant has all that I like about Bombshell but with boobs that are much more natural looking. Great mod, very well supported by Remy the author, and his user base who keep churning out armors for it. If you like UNPB,  big natural boobs and sporty thighs, it's the way forward.

If you want to use the vanilla armors, and actually have them protect your body, go with UNP. in searching, it's the only body type i've found that has a full armory (all vanilla + dlc armors)that isnt made to look like stripper gear. not that i have anything against stippers adn their choice of attire.

Manga's garbage, SevenBase is serviceable but only the Natural version is worth a damn, CBBE + Bodyslide 2 is probably your best bet if you're incredibly picky, but UNP is best.

 

If I didn't list it it's either utterly unsupported or shittier than Manga.

I'm sorry, check again because I converted ALL vanilla and DLC armors for Dream Girl months ago :)

Sevenbase Bombshell if you like legs.

 

Also most of these body mods make the arms too skinny, so I usually increase the arm size in racemenu.

never looked at Dream girl. so my comment is still correct. 

 

is it the optional file with the body type on nexes? it doesnt say if it's just made to fit or made skimpy, and only says vanilla, doesnt mention dlc.

Welcome back HanPL.

 

I say, why settle for just 1 when you can try 10 different body/texture combinations on the fly?

I switch easily between CBBE/UNPB/ADEC/CHSBHC/UNP TopModel/SeveNBase/Lady Body in-game.

 

 

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is...

 

Yeah... apparently you need to put a lot of modding work into it yourself just to make it work. It says you need to manually edit all your head meshes yourself. I'd love to use this mod, because I have a lot of armor/clothing mods that need different body types and as a result I get glitchy skin textures. But alas, I'm not an expert modmaker so I can't use it. Wait... if I were an expert modmaker, then I would have just made that whole mod myself! OH THE IRONY.

 

(sorry, when one is faced with "too good to be true", one tends to become a bit pissy about it)

Well, i had CBBE. Even played with Bodyslide a bit. 

 

But, last week a desided to change to SeveNBase Bombshell and i don´t regret it.
