📋 About This Mod
This is a CBBE 3BA Conversion with Bodyslide for tatururutia´s HDT-SMP Infantry Armor Patch , that was made for 4thUnknown´s Infantry Armor SE.
The base mod (Infantry Armor) and the HDT-SMP Infantry Armor Patch are both required.
Note, that the HDT-SMP Patch is made for the esp. Version of the base mod!
So, when you have Infantry Armor installed, you need to throw out the esl. plugin, take the esp. out of the folder (it comes with the mod, but in a seperate folder that says "esp") and check, if it is activated.
Xtudos Patch (Infantry Armor SE - My patches by Xtudo - Steel Soldier) is compatible, but needs to load after the HDT-SMP Patch.
Load Order:
1.) 4th Unknown´s Infantry Armor
2.) HDT-SMP Patch from tatururutia (with weightslider)
3.) Xtudo´s patch (IF you use it)
4.) 3BA Refit
