📋 About This Mod

Overview

This is a Bodyslide conversion of Fuse00's Vendalian Armor for HIMBO v5. All fabric SMP physics on the main armor have been retained.

A few adjustments have been made for this refit compared to Vympyrica's HIMBO v4 refit:

  • [] Added zaps for just the top plate (inspired by SunJeong's 3BA refit for this armor), both the top plate and belts, and the collar.

    []Vympyrica's refit adjusted the top ever so slightly to expose the nipples; however, going by Fuse00's WIP post and three screenshots taken by a JP user, having the armor just barely covering the nipples was very likely intended. Thus, I've created these zaps to try to compromise on that front.

[]Boots clipping: I've used Vympyrica's refitted boots as a base, then trimmed down the thickness around the calves and foot braces to try to closely match the shape produced by conforming the SAM boots mesh to the SAM => HIMBO conversion reference shape. I've tried to avoid the knees-thighs region, so that part of the mesh will appear a tad thicker than the lower areas.

  • []I've originally tried to inflate the back/sides of the knees region using the conversion reference as a base to fix the clipping with...just about any movement and combat related animation, but noticeable clipping was still abound no matter how much I inflated the mesh, even with using Vymprica's refit mesh as another reference. This is also without accounting for the general distortion of the boots' shape during that trial and error...

    []Unfortunately, basing the boots off of Vymprica's refit and not touching them past the knees does mean that the slight gap between the back boot stitches and the boots themselves were also carried over to this refit. It's difficult to notice the gap in regular gameplay to begin with, but this is something to be mindful of for any screenarchers using this refit.

    I've also included a replacement ESP with the following changes:

    • [] Compressed forms and ESPFE flagged

      [] Removed Fuse00 prefixes from the armor names

      []Integrated the wrist fix on Vympyrica's refit that was provided by Kreiste. As with the old refit, the bracers' mesh partition slot has been edited to account for this change. If the esp isn't replaced (or it's overwritten by a different esp replacer), you will get invisible hands upon equipping the bracers.

      [] Fixed the keywords on the original outfit so they play nice with Light Armor perks. The bracers no longer have the feet keyword...

      [] Added crafting/tempering recipes (replicating recipes present in Fuse00's later armors) so the outfit is obtainable without console or AddItemMenu variants. I will not touch the outfit's values as that goes beyond this mod's scope as it is.
