📋 About This Mod

Since making a custom Hunter outfit causes the game's skin tone mapping to fail, I wanted to take a page out of peek6's playbook and create a set of material instances that would cover the 15 starting ALL skin tones for the vanilla male and female Hunter base bodies. This will allow mod authors to provide relatively easy (see "To Mod Authors" section below) full skin tone support for the Hunter. Outfit mods that previously had skin tone support issues but used the vanilla material names for the male Hunter base body and both Ancestral outfit body skins should be innately compatible with this mod.

Optional files will include compatibility patches for various older mods that either have open permissions or I have obtained permission to release a patch for. Installation of the original mod's files are still required for use with the patches

Hi-Poly Mod Compatibility Patch requires the "Required hi-res textures and materials for all hi-poly models" download from the Hi-Poly mod.

Currently available compatibility patches for female Hunter outfits:

  • []Classic Captain Marvel Costume for Female Hunter

    []Huntress - The Illustrious Midnight Eversun Masterwork Armor

    []Huntress - The Bewitching Starfury of Temptation Unleashed*

Requires fix available on my Various Material Fixes page to fully work

**Requires Hi-Poly Mod Compatibility Patch from this mod page

To Mod Users:

Inside the main zip file are 24 paks that correspond to the supported skin tones. Contained in each pak are materials for the base game body skin and the Ancestral outfit body skin for both male and female Hunter. Use the pak that matches your desired skin tone.

To Mod Authors:

These materials are placed in the same folders as their base game counterparts and share the same names, with the exception of the female Hunter base body material. Due to the female Hunter's base body material being used by other characters, I had to rename that material to MI_HR_HeroicFemale_BaseBody_HNTR. So to make your female Hunter mods compatible with these materials, make sure that your model uses the renamed material instead of MI_HR_HeroicFemale_BaseBody. For mods that use the Hi-Poly mod's materials, using MI_HR_HeroicFemale_NudeLoHNTR/MI_HR_HeroicFemale_NudeUpHNTR allows the Hi-Poly Mod Compatibility Patches to eliminate the need for releasing multiple versions of your model that use MI_HR_HeroicFemale_NudeLo(XX)/MI_HR_HeroicFemale_NudeUp(XX) to support every skin tone in the game.
