📋 About This Mod
I just patched NiOverride Pose Adjustments' "skeleton_female".nif file with the values I took from Better Female wrists hands ankles and leg ratio twists for XPMSSE.
Overwrite in "meshes\actors\character\character assets female", if you want to use it on player character.
Overwrite your follower's "skeleton_female.nif", if you want to use it on a follower.
If your follower doesn't have a skeleton_female.nif file; it must use the player characters "skeleton_female.nif" file; therefore you have to overwrite the skeleton_female.nif in "meshes\actors\character\character assets female".
However, if you only want to modify a follower with this skeleton and they don't have a skeleton file you can overwrite; you must make a custom race for your follower in sseedit to replace only their skeleton.
If you find any issues, let me know. I'll try my best to figure it out as soon as possible.
But please first take a look at:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 449 endorsements and over 11k downloads
- Fixes wrist and ankle proportions for female characters, improving visual quality
- Works for both player and followers, with clear installation instructions
⚠️ Cons

- Manual file overwriting can be tricky for beginners, especially for follower-specific setups
- Potential compatibility issues with other skeleton mods or body mods that alter skeleton_female.nif
For Skyrim SE players who use NiOverride Pose Adjustments and want better female wrist and ankle proportions without conflicts. It's ideal for modders comfortable with manual file placement and who already have the required mods. Skip if you don't use NiOverride or prefer all-in-one body mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, manually place the file in the correct folder and ensure it overwrites any existing skeleton_female.nif from NiOverride.
- For followers without a skeleton file, you'll need to create a custom race in SSEEdit—this is advanced, so consider using a simpler follower mod instead.
- Check the original mods' bug sections for known issues before reporting problems here, as many fixes are already documented.
