Disabling physical bulk?

[Tsuyara]

Is there really no way to disable this? All my melee characters, fully kitted out in heavy armor are now above 50 and are all starting to look weird, especially my armor smith is looking really disfigured. I tried using a surgeon but it didn't really work. It's really disheartening because i still want to progress, but i feel like they are just going to look worse and worse from here on out.

Surgeon will let you adjust their bodies if their bulk starts to clip into their bodies.

Otherwise there's no in-game way to disable or counteract it. You can lower muscle definition by raising science and cooking skills, but that won't affect their bulk.

I am using that already, but it's for definition, not bulk (they themselves say it doesn't work for it). :(

I tried that and i don't know what i am doing wrong, but they just don't look right when i try. :(

Maybe try starving them?

When you go to the surgeon what did you change? Usually to reduce bulk, you just need to reduce the slider for arms and legs. That's the only place bulk is applied if I'm not mistaken. So to reduce bulk, just play around with those two sliders until you're happy with how it looks.

One thing I noticed is that some clothing doesn't appear to be rigged/compatible with some of these dynamic morphs/scales/whatever. Then again, it's difficult to tell sometimes what the issue is. For instance, there's a pair of pants where the character's massive DoYouEvenLiftBro calves are always poking through. Rigging or this morph system? Dunno.

I thought more of this kind of evolving physique was just variations on normal/al[pha maps or something. But, I guess it's more than that. (Not quite sure why it's in the game, to be honest. But, okiedokie I guess... )

I'm usually too far zoomed out to care, to be honest. But, I'd rather everyone not look like scaling variations of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

This Mod is good at fixing the bulk problem for the most part. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2422188439 only issue is some NPC's will look weird but I usually don't care

Worked perfect, thanks! Also, the occasional wild looking NPCs are a bonus in my book. Gives the world some extra "flavor".
