📋 About This Mod
As the mod title may suggest, this mod enhances the original OG body for all by fixing the stretched out nails, giving everyone the same, detailed, feet, fixing weird black splotches over the body and updating the armour and NPC meshes that need it. This also comes with a more natural looking body retexture which edits the nails to be more pink (or grey for the Qunari) and look more like a healthy irl nail.
This mod is one of the biggest mods I've ever worked on. I was in the middle of making my next mod when I realised how many little issues were on the nude bodies. From weird black fingertips to necklines also being black in some spots, to the fact the feet don't actually have toes and how the nails looked stretched out and lifeless.... Not only that, but also how INCONSISTENT the fingers are on some armours compared to the nude bodies.
So, I've done my best to fix these issues, along with edit the armour meshes that have hands, feet or stomach and back showing with my fixes! It's not perfect, but it's WAY better than before, imo!
This mod will cover every necessary mesh, but it'll come out in segments due to just how large it is. There's no firm date as to when these updates will come out, but they will. Until it is done, this mod will be in ALPHA.
For my past mods, some will be getting a Better Bodies update in the next couple of days. Whether or not I keep the old version up is still up for debate.
I'm aware of the weird stretching bug that happens sometimes when you hover over someone with your mouse. Sadly, it's a Frosty thing so I can't do anything to fix it. If this bothers you, then do not download this mod.
I also wasn't able to test every single item that I replaced, so if you encounter any clipping, weight issues or any annoying texture stretching, please let me know by telling me which item it is and for which species and gender the issue is happening on or the person!
MAKE SURE YOUR MESH QUALITY IS SET TO ULTRA

Under here is mostly about how I got the general bodies to be... well, better.
Like I said above, this mod was not my intention to make, but while working on my Duchess Florianne dress for Inky, little issues kept popping up and I kept having to fix them. I decided then and there to just make a mod out of it to replace NPC armour with the fixes and also make it a modders resource.
I first thought of upscali

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
