A. What is HDT HighHeel System? Currently, most of the modders will make a high heel shoe in skyrim as the picture shows below:As a result, when actors in game put on the shoes like this, their height will not increase as in reality, sometimes really looks strange.
So we advise that modders can solve the problem with HDT HH system like this: For high heel shoe contains the ‘ankle rim’, make sure that it is the same as the ‘ankle rim’ of the body part.
Then link HDT HH System to the shoes in CK or use MCM to config your shoes , actor will get a height increase after putting on the high heel shoes, looks the same as reality.
=========================== B. How to use HDT HH System : =========================== 1. You should have SKYUI3. 0 or higher version installed. 2. Then install HDT HH System(REQUIRES SKSE 1. 6. 13, Skyrim 1. 9. 32 update.) 3. You should have the high heel shoes which link to HDT HH System. If not yet,you must do it in MCM,look step 4. For example: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32049 Thanks for newmiller’s great work. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30642 Thanks for Elewin’s great work. 4. You can customize your high heel shoes in the MCM menu after installing the mods above correctly.
That's all.
