[Vote] What is important for outfit mod?
Added 2024-04-02 23:27:51 +0000 UTCI almost finished research for outfit mod and found some dilemma.
Between "Quality" and "Convenience & Compatibility"
[What is the problem?]
Normally modders uses CBBE basic (Zeroed) body for outfit mod and users use bodyslide to fit to their body.
Almost bodyslide preset has bigger shape than CBBE basic and it causes texture stretch problem.
[Example]
- This is example.
First picture is original outfit. All part has similar size pattern.
The second picture is bodyslide preset example. Breast part pattern is bigger than belly part because it is stretched. Because bodyslide expands the polygon size.
[What is the solustion?]
To reduce this problem original outfit model has to have the similar size with bodyslide preset size.
Almost people use bodyslide preset which has similar slide with CBBE curved or more bigger.
Using CBBE curved for origianl outfit is best option I think but it causes another problem.
Almost bodyslide preset uses CBBE basic (Zeroed) as basic data. If I use CBBE curved as basic data, the presets show different result. So you have to make "Custom bodyslide preset" for my mod.
in this case, an equipment from another mod can be incompatible. They can have position problem. Because they use different bodyslide preset. So you have to modify them too.
[Result]
If you choose "01 .Convenience & Compatibility", the outfit mod will use "CBBE basic" as reference.
The texture quality will have bigger risk according to your bodyslide preset.
If you choose "02. Quality", the outfit mod will use "CBBE Curved" as reference.
You have to modify the bodyslide preset for my mod.
You can vote only one.
