TERA Armor CBA Bodyslide - HDT + Zaps addon

[ToxicKin]

Hurrah!

 

Haha, indeed!

 

 

Update includes:

* Fixed "squashed breasts", as well as the miss-aligned hands/neck that affected a selected few.

 

I'm so glad to hear this I could hug a dragon.

 

 

 

I could hug a freaking Daedric prince, as glad as I am currently ^^ You can't imagine how much testing I've done to try to fix this, and my amazement when it finally worked. It's all thanks to Groovtama and Chronotrigger77 that it now works!

 

Sooo, what's the body used in the first post?

 

It's one of my own (older) presets. If I recall correctly. The pictures are taken on a 0% weight char I believe. (was really happy with the hips on the low weight) I'll attach the preset in question - be wary though, abnormal boob and butt sizes ahead!

 

And now some status report:

 

All outfits have been updated to HDT (i.e Belly Node), and as such the name of the mod will also change.

10 outfits have been checked up on zaps and sliders, 30 to go. I estimate this to take around another 4-5 hours to do.

After that, some testing is going to be done, and then I'll release it. If we're lucky that is going to be tomorrow, otherwise the 1.2 release is post-poned until friday.

 

In the meantime, have a good day

 

EDIT: Well... a few hours later, and I've done another 20 outfits. 10 to go, but I think it's bedtime for tonight. I think I'll finish up this iteration tomorrow, and make sure as much as possible is working. As long as there aren't any issues, you will probably see the 1.2 release tomorrow evening

Hey again

 

Just a bit of an update. I ran into some problems today. That is, however, now fixed. I'm very close to being done with the 1.2 update, but I want to make sure everything works ingame before release, to hammer out any bugs or oddities beforehand. With other words, the release is post-poned until tomorrow. Thank you for your patience

 

Take care!

[Starbrow65]

No worries, take the time you need to be satisfied with your own work. After all, it it's going to be Friday, you'll still be meeting your own deadline from post #76 ...

[ToxicKin]

Alright! Just doing some final checkups on all the armors in Skyrim on a few different settings to see if there are any major errors. If not, I'll do some final cleanup, package the mod and upload it here. Expect it here in an hour or two (that is... if nothing is extremely wrong )

[ToxicKin]

...fuck. Alright, most armors work somewhat flawlessly, but there are a couple of errors:

 

1. (Critical) Atroscine Hauberk's BaseShape (body) does not show up ingame. I am confident this has to do with weights, as when you look in Outfit Studio, the BaseShape doesn't seem to have any weights applied. What's odd is that when I try to export it with a new reference body, the exported body doesn't have any weights applied either.

 

2. Several armor meshes have wrongly applied weights. As long as Outfit Studio doesn't fuck me up hard again, these should be quickly fixed.

 

So there's my current situation. Had it only been nr 2, I would've said fuck it and released it as is. However, as the Atroscine outfit continues to fuck up things, I am getting quite a bit tired.

 

Does someone recognise the issue?

[ToxicKin]

Phew. I know I'm tripple posting now, but I freaking managed to fix the Atroscine Hauberk. I literally tried 12 different solutions before it worked, and god knows how many search terms on google... Anyway, I'll send a bug report to the Bodyslide team later, as i don't think this is the supposed behaviour.

 

So, right now, all armors work, and all armors have HDT (need confirmation on all Belly nodes though). There are minor issues on quite a few of the armors though, as the weight paint didn't translate that well. I'm going to stay up quite late this evening, to make sure all these things works as intended. This patch has been so freaking cumbersome to get through, but I will make sure it works.

 

In the future, remind me to never take on projects larger than 3-4 outfits at a time...

[Ellewah]

I just wanna say that your time and effort are very much appreciated, words aren't even enough to thank you!

Thank you, it means a lot

 

Now, I've done enough for tonight. I do realise there are still some issues with certain armors, but they will be fixed in a future update. I will put up the 1.2 release now

 

Hopefully you'll all enjoy!

 

EDIT: Uploaded, but... well I managed to mess up the original post for the topic. Sorry about that. Will fix tomorrow when I'm less prone for typing mistakes and the likes.

@ToxicKin

Bodyslide got updated to 2.1. maybe it helps.

[Starbrow65]

@ToxicKin

 

Just wanted to say how I appreciate all the work you have put into this in general and the 1.2 update in particular. I use my customized version of the CT77 body with XPMSE 2.x and the 'crushed breast' bug has disappeared from the armours. I haven't seen all of them ingame yet, but the ones up to and including anything under Elven smithing seem fine to me so far. Thank you very much for this.

[Guest jenny2011]

So I downloaded all 3 files (frigus's original + tomcat's boots/gauntlets + this) and now I have a TON of armors and I have no clue what to do. I really want to zap some things, but with multiple versions of armors, (some CBA HDT, some NoBBP, some BBP) I'm not sure which to select, etc.

 

I have HDT breast + SOS collision enabled for my in-game body. I assume I'll select CBA HDT, then? BUT I see no Zap sliders - anywhere!

 

How can I get rid of the non-HDT presets? Is there a way to make my zap-life easier?

Hmm, this is very odd. Make sure you select the group "CBAdvanced TERA Armors HDT Collection", and choose one of the armors within that group. If the zap sliders won't show up, I'd recommend a reinstall of the mod.

 

You can also get rid of the others, by removing them from the CalienteTools\BodySlide\SliderGroups\CB++TeraArmorGrp.xml-file (make sure to make a copy should things go wrong). If you know how to edit XML-files already, it should be quite self explainatory. Otherwise, send another reply and I'll write you a short guide on the matter.

Thanks. I got it to work now. Is there a way to "save" Zap settings for certain armors in Bodyslide so we don't have to go through and individually adjust each armor every time we want to change or try out a different body type?

Sorry for the delay. Yes, there is! You can save it in your presets, the zap sliders will follow through when you press "Save preset". However, this is obviously also an issue, as each armor has an individual set of zaps, and if you want to use a single preset for all your armors, Bodyslide won't provide you the functionality to add all the zaps itself. If you want to do so, you need to edit the preset XML files manually - simple stuff, really.

 

Short guide on how you do it:

1. Save a preset with the slider settings you'd like for your body, name it whatever you like.

2. Open the folder \CalienteTools\BodySlide\SliderPresets, and open your preset file with Notepad++.

3. It should now read something like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SliderPresets>
   <Preset name="YourPresetName" set="CalienteBody">
   ** Contents - groups and sliders **
   </Preset>
</SliderPresets>

4. What you want to do is adding slider lines into the "Contents" part. I have made a formated comprehensive list in the OP of the thread (the third spoiler), which you can copy-paste into that space. It is in formated into groups of body part coverage. Now, simply remove lines from that copy-paste you don't want to be zapped, and make sure to save when you're done. (EDIT: Just to be clear: do NOT overwrite, just ADD the slider lines from the OP - personally I tend to add them just under the group lines)

5. Load up in Bodyslide, choose the preset and load up one of my armors.

 

I understand if this came across a bit unclear, ask me again if there's something you didn't understand. I know it may seem complicated, but once you get the hang of it, it's actually quite quick and easy.

hello,

i had a rest from skyrim for some months, so i am back again.

have you read that fringus is up to a hdt Version of this ?

i get back to the ascandant armor and made the Brown parts out again. but what i Forget to tell you is that then the Pants look 5 cm before the Skin. there is more work then simple take the Brown parts away i fear. maybe you take alook on that and make a safe file you can attach here,

 

meantime i was very busy with my sorting of the armors. now i included all dlc armors. so every armor has now only one type.

the ingredients now are exactly those of the original plus the original. so you need both. that is really satisfaction.

here you got the list :

Sorry for the delay! Actually shared it a few pages back, in this post.

[Monsto Brukes]

This is a great set. Love your work.

 

 

 

[offnightmare]

The original tera armors mod seems to have new armor any chance those'll be added to this?

[ToxicKin]

This is a great set. Love your work.

 

Why, thank you! Now, it's a bit messed up in it's current state, but I plan to, sometime, in some future, go back and redo some stuff.

I know, I know. There is another mod on the Nexus if you wish to get Bodyslide costumization for all armors - plus it has HDT heels! - but it does not have the same amount of zap slider customization as I provide. Thinking about it, I should probably contact the guy and see if we can't collab our works... Hmm, we'll see.

 

EDIT: Forgot to link to the other mod... here it is: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/56358/?

that would be MOST excellent. 2 people working the same kind of mod sharing resources? seems like a no brainer.

 

(i'm looking at you ECE (wouldn't work with Expired & Racemenu) )

I've downloaded this mod but the CBA hdt tera armor collection is not showing  up in the bodyslide whatsoever only ive downloaded al lprereu but the only thing im getting is the tera with tbbp options to choose from in the bodyslide let me know if there is something that I may have not done right for it to appear in the outfit/body section

First, check that you got the 1.2 version of the mod, and not the 1.1. If you did: check in Bodyslide again. The group is called "CBAdvanced TERA Armors HDT Collection". In case it isn't there: Are you certain you've installed it correctly? What tool are you using? If you're not using Mod Organizer, try going to you Skyrim directory (Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim), continue to \Data\CalienteTools\BodySlide\SliderGroups and check if the file "CBATeraArmorGrp.xml" is there. If it isn't, reinstall the mod.

Is it the same mod as "HDT and Bodyslide conversion for Frigus' Tera Armor Collection CBBE" by raisuli2013?

No, it isn't. Wouldn't suprise me if the quality of that other mod is higher than mine though. The main thing about my mod is the amount of zap sliders available - and while I certainly try to have a as high as possible quality standard, my experience puts me at a disadvantage

 

So, essentially: If you want to use the zap sliders: use my mod. If not, use raisuli's.

 

EDIT: It seems like his/her mod contains zaps as well... gonna investigate a bit ^^

 

EDIT2: Well, yeah. It have some more basic zap slider functionality: for more customability, I'd say choose mine. however, my mod is still missing a few of the armors, so I'd recommend you to use his/her mod for those armors while i'm working on some major updates to my own ^^ (I'm essentially remaking this entire mod from scratch, using the UNP Tera armor mod isntead - for better texture support - but progress is extremely slow, and release will probably be by next year, if ever )
