Dyeable addon is available in the optional downloads section
Requires either "Screen Archer Menu" or "Dye Manager" (video showcase is made with SAM)
I find that it works best using the grey nails
The colour of the glow effect can be changed in nifscope for all the glowing nails:
1. Open the mesh in nifscope
2. Expand the corresponding mesh block and select the shader properties block
3. Go to the emissive color line and click on the color wheel symbol
4. Pick the color of your choice
5. Click "ok" and save the file
Will there be a version for vanilla, FHR, BHUNP, UBE, etc?
Not from me
May I make a patch for X body?
Yes you may
