Barely Fits - Vanilla High Metal Set - EBB-Physics

"If you can't fit in, leave it open!"

Solid metal doesn’t stretch. That’s just a fact of life.

I brought the standard amount of materials to the Smithy, but when it came time for the fitting, we had a major problem. My body was... well, still a bit too "extra" to fit in to the rigid chestplate.

"I’ve already quoted the price, and I’m not asking for more materials now!" the Smithy grunted, throwing a few rivets into the scrap bin. "And I’m sure as hell not paying for the extra out of my own pocket, either!"

He grabbed some heavy-duty leather straps and bridged the gap where the steel wouldn't meet.

"See? I’ve replaced the rivets with adjustable belts," he said, wiping the grease from his hands with a smirk. "It gives the armor room to breathe—and more importantly, it makes sure you actually fit in. Consider the problem solved."

He didn't need to say more. After all, There must be a Solution.

ABOUT THE MOD

This is a lore-friendly conversion of the Vanilla High Metal Armor to the EBB (Extra Buff Body) shape.

My goal is to maintain the vanilla aesthetics while providing the dynamic physics that EBB users love.

I haven't used any external visual assets—it's the pure vanilla material, now with full EBB physics merged.

Yes, you heard it right: it jiggles, even though it’s metallic armor.

Of course, it’s only a subtle movement, as the heavy metallic casing naturally restricts the Extra body's "free-flowing" motion.

Consider it a balance between realism and fun-to-see!

User screenshots are more than welcome!

I’d love to see how your hunters fit into this tight armor.

Feel free to share your best shots!
