📋 About This Mod

Edits companions just a tiny bit.

New Files as of 11/18/17:

  • []Cait face and body tweaks - Slightly alters Cait's face to what I feel a melee fighter should look like. Gives her green bloodshot eyes (drugs), broken nose, more scars, and tired eyes. Also her freckles are a bit more prominent. Adjusts her bodyweight to make her more muscular, and adjusts her profile slightly to make it less cartoony (personal preference). She is still super  pretty imho, just a lot more beat up.

    []Piper Frazzled - gives Piper frazzled hair, so she looks similar to her concept art plus her Perk icon, makes her face a little bit longer so it doesn't look as squashed and cartoony (personal preference), and changes her body weight a bit closer to the left side of the bodyslide triangle. []MacCready Tweaks - slightly alters his jaw, chin, and nose to make him look less weird

Old files:
  • []Piper Edit short hair long fringe - gives Piper Unscrupulous hair with long fringe (see images), doesn't change her face, but edits her body weight a bit closer to the left side of the bodyslide triangle. []Piper tweak - edits her body slide, but doesn't touch her hair []Cait tweak - edits Cait's bodyslide to the middle of the left side of the triangle (purely muscular side). Makes her more buff []Curie tweak - edits Curie's bodyslide to the bottom side of the triangle (purely curvaceous). Makes her more thinner, less muscular, but more curvy' []Piper and Cait tweaks - includes Piper and Cait tweaks (just bodyslide)

Fringe is the lnger version of the mesh in Kat's New Hairstyles mod by JTEsmer akaANiceOakTree. Special thanks to her for graciously allowing me to mess with that mesh and upload it. Compatibility:

  • []Probably incompatible with any mods that edit their faces since the body-shape is built into the preset
Installation:
  • []NMM 
  • Or if manual, drop the esp into your Data folder and enable it in the plugins.txt file located in AppData\Local\Fallout4
Both Piper and Cait use CBBE Vanilla presets, so if used with vanilla body they will prob look a little different, but not by much. Eyes are from The Eyes Of Beauty Fallout Edition by LogRaam aka Gabriel Mailhot
