📋 About This Mod

Patch 8 Tested and Compatible

This mod features new virtual textures made by me, meant to replace my old nipple texture mod that relied on Trips Shaders, which now has some bugs with it.  Another important factor is that only virtual textures can have certain skin effects, like sweating.

1. 2 Update

There are now two versions of each pak, a "normal" and one with "Smooth Gith" textures.

  • []The normal, unspecified, versions use the normal rough skin textures for Githyanki including scars and 3d textures on their spots and such.  This comes with the downside of some visible seams on the texture, especially around the genitals.[/]

    []The Smooth Gith versions remove most of the unique features of the Githyanki skin, though it keeps things like their spots, vein colour, and such.  This makes their skin much more smooth and "pristine" looking and also fixes most of the texture seam issues.[/]

    []For non-Githyanki there's no difference between each version.  Please do not use both a normal and a smooth gith file, there's no point and it will break your load order.[/]

    Now compatible with KazVT.

    Choose one of the paks available (see image for comparisons) and only one.  If you wish to change to a different texture delete the old pak from your mods folder or choose to "delete permanently" in BG3MM. This mod affects all type 1 body characters (normal size female).

    Uninstall Trips Shaders and Load this below any body texture mods (load this below Big Busty Body/Big Boob Big Butt Body as well).

    Known Issues:

    • []For some reason there's a mismatch sometimes between the head and body skin colour, this is most notable on yellow or yellowish bodies, I'd suggest changing colour or using a neck piece like a collar or choker to hide the mismatch.[/]

      []If you're using one of the vein textures from my Various beautiful Bodies mod, I'd recommend removing those for now, I will be creating new versions for that mod soon.[/]

      []This is obviously incompatible with UTav, if someone wants to modify it to work with UTav by removing the shaders requirement feel free.[/]

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check if your game version is compatible with the mod's last update (January 2026) before installing.
  • Since the author didn't include install instructions, look for a 'Textures' folder in your game directory and drop the files there, or use a mod manager if available.
  • Try the 'Base' texture first to see if you like the nipple improvement, then experiment with the shiny variants for different looks.
