Looking for an easy to install better bodies mod thats compa

Post » Thu Jan 20, 2011 3:38 pm

I installed beautiful people and the lite version of RBP but there is a conflict with some eye mesh it looks like and I can't figure out how to fix it. So any recommendations on something easy to install for all races that make them look better?

Are you looking for a body replacer? That is not what Beautiful People is. Those two mods conflict because they are both cosmetic compilations that affect the vanilla races. Such mods are in no way intended to be used together. Most female body mods are compatible with those mods. Robert's body mods can be made compatible with a few tweaks to either of those mods main plugins or with Wrye Bash. Your best bet for using multiple cosmetic mods of any kind is to use Wrye Bash's Bashed Patch, which allows multiple plugins to modify the same records, which is, otherwise, the source of many mod conflicts.

Beautiful People and RBP are incompatible, end of story. It does warn you about this problem in the RBP readme, because both do very similar (and at times identical) things they will not work together, I advise you to dump BP and stick with RBP.

"bgBalancingEVOptionalNPCDiversity, Beautification.esp" is your friend.

That plugin has nothing to do with what Beautiful People does.

Actually reading the readme helps:

Important notice regarding Beautiful People: BP is using the Elaborate Eye mesh (former bash tag Eye-E), but has changed it's filepath to the default Eye mesh (former bash tag Eye-D). This causes numerous problems. One of them is that using it as eye mod for the bashed patch can result in very strange oddities. Due to the highly problematic nature of BP (it's scripts are also borked), and due to fixed versions available, I do not offer any support regarding BP anymore. This has caused me enough support grief. Simply installing RBP will fix the eye mesh mess for good.


See?

Interesting. This actually relates to what I'll soon have to work around. I currently have RBP (light) installed, in which adds no extra races or cosmetics, just birth signs and stats. I then plan on installing http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16988 and here are its requirements...

Requirements:
1. Capucines Character Expansion - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3934
2. The "coreanhair" file from the Corean mod - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15568
3. Ren's Beauty Pack - http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=1011

So, I'm curious if these required mods (especially Ren's Beauty Pack that is known to be included beautiful people) will give me grief as well, just because I have RBP installed.

Oh, and sorry to barge in on your thread... :D

1. RBP covers most of those resource files.
2. Just don't install the plugin.
3. Capucine's mod includes Ren's resources. In fact, that was the first mod I switched to from Ren's Beauty Pack (after being disappointed by BP.)


Edit: I'm verifying whether or not my memory has completely failed. I have used all of the mods in question. I just need a sec to download Cap's mod again.

Edit: Okay, I have partially lost my mind. Cap's mod does not include Ren's files. I was mixing it up with the Cosmetic Compilation. Bad, I know... However, RBP includes Caps' eyes. Therefore, installing it would, yet again, be a waste. Just install RBP and the Corean hair mod, and things should be fine. Actually, if that mod uses the Ren's hairs with bandanas and whatnot, you'll need to install at least the hair resource from Ren's mod.
