📋 About This Mod

Note from the author:

This isn’t related to this mod (at all), but there's something happening in the world that's become increasingly important to me in the past two years. I want to use my mods as a platform to share that topic. Unfortunately I can't voice it on NexusMods, because it might go against flimsy and easily weaponizable policy guidelines relating to sociopolitical issues. So I have to vaguely gesture to it instead. Here's a song recommendation.

Anyways, back to videogame mods.

Updates:

additional versions of the Alternate/Snake and Black outfits to the downloads tab. These versions include:

  • []Alternate Palette (Blue Trim) - The same palette as the Alternate/Snake style, but with an iron blue trim on the shoulders, instead of the orange coloring.

    []Alternate Palette (No Trim) - The same palette as the Alternate/Snake style, but the colored trim on the shoulders were removed altogether.

    []Black/Grey Palette - The Black palette but with dark grey straps instead of the dark blue.

    []Black Grey Palette (No Trim) - The Black palette but with dark grey straps instead of the dark blue. Additionally, the "CCCP" tag on the shoulders has been removed altogether.

Check out the images for reference.

Description:

This mod removes the scarring from The Boss' chest and includes 4 variations on the DLC outfit: Cleaned, Accurate/MGS3, Black and Alternate/Snake.

  • []Cleaned - the same colors as the vanilla outfit, only cleaned to remove the scratches and dirt.

    []Accurate/MGS3 - a "more accurately" colored outfit. The shoulder and leg mesh is made slighty more grey.

    []Black - a slightly updated version of my previous Boss outfit texture.

    []Alternate/Snake - Similar colors to the Naked Snake sneaking suit.

    This mod also includes scarred versions of these outfits.

    I hope you like them!

    Known Issues:

    The character's eye color changes when using the Zipped version of the outfit. This doesn't affect the Unzipped version. I'm not sure what causes this, unfortunately.

    This mod can be installed manually or via SnakeBite Mod Manager -

    For manual installation, simply use 7zip to extract the files from the .mgsv file.
