📋 About This Mod
This patch didn't have anything to do with OBody.dll to made it support AE. Only Papyrus change to make it work without OStim. If you want to use this on AE, get OBody.dll from here, or go using something similar here instead.
OBody originally design to be an Addon for OStim. I saw somebody said there is already a Standalone version. But I can't find it. Google takes me to a Reddit topic provide how to make OBody Standalone, which the method in that topic is too dirty compare to OStim itself. Only clean OBody ESP without tuning the scripts will pop an error in Papyrus, i'm sure.
Due to that Reddit Topic, I decided to check OBody Scripts myself. And yeah, it can become a standalone. So I did this.
Due to original Obody and its source files has GPL-2. 0 License , this allow me to modify and publish the patch. As long as I keep the source Open.
The source codes of both Scripts are include in main download and on Github.
What this mod does?
It allows user to install OBody without OStim, in case that you only want the bodyslide presets distribute feature without bothering R-18 contents.
This mod also include MCM and auto load config function from MCM Helper. Unlike the original, OBody Standalone doesn't require a game reload to make MCM change to take an effect.
For Non-MCM version, this doesn't require MCM Helper, but all configurations need to be done through console command or xedit only. Read Sticky Post for more information.
I'm not sure if it able to support OBody Addons. If they aren't, I won't make a support for those addon due to didn't interest in using them.
