📋 About This Mod
QuarantineCouture has incorporated an improved version of this mod into the original mod under an optional file. I recommend you use that version instead, as they improved the weighting considerably from what I did
Longer skirts have always looked bad in Skyrim without cloth physics, so when I saw the Practical Pirate Outfit by QuarantineCouture and fell in love with it, I knew I had to add cloth physics to the skirt, like I did with the Crimson Twilight outfit a while ago.
I'm not super happy with the result at the moment, but it's good enough for now. As I play with it, I'm sure it'll bother me enough that I'll improve it.
The outfit is also weighted for CBBE SMP breast physics.
IMPORTANT UPDATE
WhileI was troubleshooting the fact that the breast physics and skirt physics wouldn't work at the same time, I discovered that this is apparently a limitation of HDT-SMP (if you know of a way to do this, hit me up).
So with version 1. 1 and forward, this mod includes an esp (flagged as esl) which contains a new item called "Practical Pirate Skirt" which is just the skirt with cloth physics. It occupies slot 52.
To use this mod:
-
[]Install the requirements
[
]Install this file[]Build "Practical Pirate - Top" and "Practical Pirate - Skirt" in bodyslide
[]In-game, give yourself the item called "Practical Pirate Skirt" and equip it
[]Enjoy
- []The "Dark" variants of the outfit don't work
This mod adds HDT-SMP cloth physics to the Practical Pirate outfit by QuarantineCouture. It's a niche enhancement for Skyrim players who want more realistic cloth movement on that specific armor. With 220 endorsements and over 20k downloads, it's a modestly popular tweak.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Decent community support (220 endorsements) for a niche physics mod.
- Over 20,000 downloads shows real demand for this outfit's physics.
- Directly enhances immersion with cloth movement on a popular armor.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires HDT-SMP framework, which can be finicky to set up.
- Only affects one outfit, so limited scope if you want broader physics.
- Last updated in 2021, so may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions.
For Skyrim players who already use HDT-SMP and want the Practical Pirate outfit to have realistic cloth physics. Skip if you don't use that outfit or prefer simpler armor mods.
