A Better Nude Body (ABNB). Skin for base body and Mesh for armor versions

ABNB - A Better Nude Body Mod and Tutorial

Introduction

If you’re here, it’s likely because you’re a connoisseur of fine lewd mods. Well friend, you’re in luck, because this here is the finest of nude mods in Elden Ring to date – at least if you’re focusing on features such as compatibility and in game cohesion.

You may also have already noticed the lack of good nude mods to date – the ones that we have amount to simple textures of the base body, and full body replacements - which unfortunately don’t work with the body masking system that’s present in the game.

This masking system allows various portions of the body to be hidden according to what the armor is covering – without its function, you’d simply have bits of body clipping through the armor.

I have personally investigated various angles for figuring out this masking system, but have always come up short – it’s a tricky system, and at this point, I half suspect that the necessary information simply isn’t exposed via any of the mod tools we have access to – so we can’t edit this masking data properly.

Which means to get a good high quality nude mod going… where you have actual 3D geometry for the fun parts – nipples, labia, etc., we’re going to need a more creative approach.

This is where ‘A Better Nude Body’ (ABNB) steps in and tries to fill that gap.

About

ABNB works off 2 premises.

1. That instead of having a custom nude body (we have a custom skin instead); we can replace armors with that custom nude body and have lewd bodies.

2. That custom nude body should mesh with the existing base body where the edges meet – wherever the body can be clipped for masking, the custom nude body should meet it to create a seamless look.

To that end, I’ve done the work to sculpt and create this custom nude body as seen in my previous releases on ‘Bikini Knight’ and ‘Night Cavalier Lewd Mod’. This is a high detailed body that provides a larger waist, more defined abs, larger D-cup breasts, shapely nipples and a detailed vulva and anus that responds to the movement of the characters skeleton (opening and closing with the movements of the character).

This has been a significant amount of work – not one I’d expect other modders to replicate  - which is why I’m sharing this body and this tutorial so that others can help make better lewd mods and integrate it into their own lewd modding projects.

As can be seen in a number of ABNB armor mods that I made during the process of putting these files and documentation together - these armors can cleanly integrate with the existing body while enhancing them.
