📋 About This Mod
Non-HDT-SMP version found here.
Description:
This mod was a lot of work but I'm happy I was able to finally pull it off and with the end result it produced.
The release of HDT-SMP Vanilla Armors, followed by the numerous mesh patches by Xavbio demanded a patch for the patch that tied them all together. This is a mod for CBBE and CBBE 3BA users who wanted a patch for all the sleeves/pants/cubemaps + HDT-SMP for Vanilla Armors + BodySlides.
The old vanilla bodies have been replaced by 3BA bodies so there won't be any hand/leg seams anymore.
Forgive the lack of images, there would be too many pics to take for each individual armor and even then, static images do not capture the beauty of HDT-SMP armors. (Also, I'm lazy :'c)

"Fur Shaders?"

[]HDT-SMP Fur Shaders for Xavbio Retextures Redux.[/]
Requirements:
-
[]CBBE.[/]
[]CBBE 3BA. (Optional, this mod is usable with or without CBBE 3BA)[/]
[]BodySlide and Outfit Studio.[/]
[]HDT-SMP Vanilla Armors and it's requirements. (Now compatible with version 2. 0)[/]
[]Xavbio's Retextures with appropriate mesh patches.[/]
Refer to the requirements tab for the full list.
The CBBE 3BA conversions from HDT-SMP Vanilla Armors are technically not required but they will cover the outfits not covered here. (AKA the outfits that did not have any mesh changes from Xavbio's Retextures.)
If by chance, you don't happen to use some of Xavbio's Retextures mentioned in the requirements tab, just don't build the related BodySlide outfit and you should be good.
For example:
Installation/Uninstallation:
Simply use a mod manager of your choice.
(Don't forget to build the files in BodySlide. They have their own group, check images for reference.)
Bugs/Issues:
If there are any, let me know and I'll do my best to solve them for you.
