Devorax Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 I'm trying to use this Topless Forsworn Armor texture replacer but ingame, characters that wear it have holes in their breasts. See the picture below: What am I missing? How do I fix this? I'm using the SweetHeart Preset for UUNP Special.
Evan555alpha Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 This appears to be because the bra mesh was removed from the outfit; generally, what isn't seen on the body mesh will be completely removed from the mesh. So, instead of replacing the body with, y'know, one that doesn't have missing bits, it's just been left. Now, I can't really tell you how to fix it, sadly: Most of my modding experience comes from different games, and I haven't really gotten down to fooling around with Skyrim yet, nor do I use the mod in question. I hope this helps. If not you, then someone else who can fix it.
Hannahavok Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 It's possible that the UUNP version of the outfit does not have the geometry for the breasts under the clothing mesh to prevent clipping.

KoolHndLuke Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 That's why I never delete parts of the body when converting outfits. It's quicker to do it that way, but, I hate doing it. You can do that yourself in BodySlide outfit studio either by masking the top or bra of the mesh and zapping it or just delete it from the outfit. Learn Outfit Studio- you can edit just about any mesh in it and change their textures! The way I would fix that is to open the project or start a new one in OS and load another reference body for the outfit and conform the sliders again and copy bone weights and then save it in the project. Close out BS entirely and then restart it and then build the outfit.

I'm not quite sure I understand the replies here. The armor's mesh has been untouched. I'm viewing it in both NifSkope and Outfit Studio and it isn't missing anything. I haven't deleted anything from the armor at all, not even the UUNP body that comes with it. I wonder if I've got a conflict somewhere that's screwing with this... I searched for the armor's mesh and found that none of the instances have been edited. So I'm not sure what could be causing a mod conflict, if there is one. The only thing that's changed is the armor's texture, which is supposed to be topless. Disabling the textures in Mod Organizer causes the armor and breasts to look normal again.
KoolHndLuke Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 You want the top of the outfit to be bra-less, right? But your seeing holes where nipples should be and you should'nt. It's because the author is doing it wrong. You need to replace the body in Outfit Studio so you see the tits when you remove the top. I can make this for you in about 2 mins. Remove their stupid mod and use something like this instead.

I can make this for you in about 2 mins. Remove his/her mod and I will. Oh... alright. I think I understand now. I'd prefer if you showed me how to do it, so that I could edit the forswornarmor mesh I built with my SweetHeart preset. I used to know how to delete/hide pieces off of armor in Outfit Studio, but I don't know how to anymore. I can't seem to select individual parts in Outfit Studio.
KoolHndLuke Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 Open the project osp for Forsworn armor. If there isn't one already, then you will need to start a new project and conform the outfit yourself and save it. Open the project and use the mask tool to darken the bra area. Invert the mask and select new zap from the slider drop down menu and name it bra. Save, exit, close out BS, restart it and see if your zap slider for the top is there. Zap the top and build it.

I managed to zap the bra out of the armor. I loaded it up in Body Slide and disabled the bra slider to reveal breasts with holes in them... I think it has something to do with the UUNP body that's attached to the armor. How do I change it to the preset I built?
KoolHndLuke Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 When you open the project again, load a new body reference (UUNP) and conform the sliders and copy bone weights- just like if it were a new project. You may need to zap the bra again after.

You may need to zap the bra again after. This is driving me fucking crazy. No matter what body mesh I choose as my reference (I know for sure I'm choosing the SweetHeart body I built), it shows up as a basic UUNP, UNP preset in Outfit Studio. Am I supposed to conform the sliders manually? Or am I supposed to copy them from my reference? How do I do that? I figured out how to copy bone weights (I think) but when I copy them, nothing changes visually on my screen. When I build the body, the resulting forswornarmor mesh is built in the UNP shape, and not the SweetHeart shape. I feel like I'm getting into armor converting now... in that case I think I'll just settle with the UNP shape.
KoolHndLuke Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 Basically, you are converting the armor to UUNP. Download the reference body, highlight all parts of the outfit (control+right click), select conform selected from the slider drop-down menu, then select set body base shape, then press conform all. Now you move each slider to check that they are working. Last you copy bone weights and then save project as. Then reopen the project and zap the bra like you did before.

Both the body and the outfit were already built in the shape of the SweetHeart preset, so I didn't have to convert anything... my only problem was that I was using the forswornarmorf_0.nif not forswornarmorf_1.nif. That was causing my armors to not match the body of my character (it wouldn't scale to her weight). Thanks for your help
ManWithAnOpenHeart Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 Could you please try to explain this in more detail? I'm experiencing the same issue with CBBE textures, where there are just holes appearing in game and in Body Slide. I have absolutely no experience with outfit studio and am unsure what the problem even is. When I open the outfit in outfit studio the nipples appear, but when I preview it in body slide, they don't show up. I literally don't understand. Attached is what I see when I open outfit studio, I don't know if that helps. Spoiler
