I think the way the game works is by memory so whatever texture you are using when you launch the game will stay even if you manually insert another one. Basically I'm thinking that you would need to save the game and close it out before the new texture would appear. The mod manager I understand has glitches or I didn't get it to work is about the only program available to swap textures in a live game. |

I'm leaving the link to the Universal females up but it has some glitches:
The hands need tweaking
The uv set works for most things but branded T-shirts won't come out right and K-Bobs x leather strap w/ skull isn't right.
Reposition element seams so there are on 1 bone not a joint.
I think I'm the only 1 using 3d modeling tools (3ds max, maya, blender) as haven't seen mandiuscreel onsite in awhile.
It would be nice if K-Bobs mod maker and mod manager got sorted out. I've done a rework of most of the applicable layers that work with the legs mod. The scheme he used was to add "bkg" to the base layer and "lyr" to anything he wanted to act as a layer. However, it is still not working right for me.
Want to take time with the universal update as it is a major pain to do all the NIF's and DDS's just to correct some minor point. Will post when updated. |

Looked in the source code some 3 years back it had a ton of TODO's. shame K-Bob isn't onboard anymore, reading AdamMil, dogcigar, and jlangsdo's posts might provide him with the needed info to wrap some of that up. |

I like the idea of the new plain and attractive daughters. Those are the ones most needed for a overhaul or at least that's my opinion. Haven't tried them just yet but the barmaids I did for about five minutes and the lines were the biggest issue I found with them. Are these tweaking's of the ones Mandiuscreel done or are they complete new nifs altogether? |

Has this issue been resolved? I would like to use the creations, but that feature kinda throws me off. The eye-candy should be more fetching, not distorted. Also the top of some heads when dipped have bald pink spots. Can someone fill out that bald spot?
Any new lost sister, daughters, or barmaids available?
Has anyone looked into making the choice, by the program, of the female character randomized so that more than one avatar can be used to stop the multiple presence of the same female at multiple ports?
Keep up the really good work, something that can be done to make the game a bit more interesting.... arrrmatey |

That seems to have worked; the file doesn't crash the game. But right now, my little plain daughter just stands in zeroed mode, arms held out at 45 degrees, hands flat, a fixed smile on her face while my captain dances around her. She does teleport from spot to spot, but she never moves. I don't yet know if it's a problem with animation or if I somehow deleted the skeleton assignments.
More later (I hope). |
This is the key element for it to work also version number |
