📋 About This Mod
TRIBAL FIXES
Long story short female tribals use MALE hand texture.
This aside from causing color mismatches, also cause a problem with the nail not really matchign the hand.
Another issue the vanilla game suffers from is a noticiable seam on WHITE HANDS. Males use the worng texture, belonging to another tribal race.
This mods fixes all those issues and significantly reduces color mixmatches on Tribal NPCs.
These fixes work best with Improved Vanilla Male Body, since it provides seamless textures and meshes for males.
Female version won't completely get rid of seams, since the seam is cused mostly by the mesh, however significantly reduces the color mismatch, and allows you to install texture mods for males wihtout compromising females.
----------------------------------
For females I am working on a Type body retexture, which will include: body, face and hand seamless textures fr tribal races. This mod is the baseground for that project, as it allows separate male and female textures.
