📋 About This Mod
This mod offers another option for adding top surgery scars to your masc-bodied Vs. Keysuspect's fantastic Surgery Scars (Skin for V) mod already made it possible to add these scars as a part of V's skin texture. Now, thanks to keysuspect's kindness in allowing me to use the textures from that mod, this mod allows you to add top surgery scars in the character creator as a body scar option. These scars replace the default #02 body scar option in the character creator for masc-framed Vs.

Fine Print & Conflicts:
This mod will conflict with other mods that alter the scar mesh or textures used for masc-framed Vs.
During testing, I rarely encountered a visual glitch in the character creator where the scar texture would appear speckled if selected in a particular order when also changing the skin color and/or applying body tattoos. This effect should be cleared by toggling the scars and/or tattoos off and then back on again.
