Any Good Clothing Mods

[Crystal Sharrd]

Are there any good quality clothing mods out there for vanilla bodies? I absolutely refuse to use body replacers and all the clothing mods I've found seem to be for body replacers.

[paugus]

Probably not. The vast majority of people who take the time to mod in different clothes do not want to look like an orangutan with monobutt. I'd ask why you won't use body replacers, but that's.. kinda your problem I guess. Sorry.

Why refuse?

Body replacers usually come with versions that have permanent underwear, so they are just better looking bodies.

Because they're overly sexualized.

Bodyslide gives you absolute control over every part of the new body. It is as sexualized as you want it to be.

I fail to see how a body slider could be sexualized unless you specifically tailored it to suit your sexual preference. Women with curvier figures aren't "sexualized" until they stop representing the body shape a real person could have. Does Christina Hendricks have a "sexualized" body type? (the answer is no, in case there was any confusion)

In any case, if you can't find vanilla body clothes on Nexus, you can make your own or buy from the CC. Or, y'know, get CBBE and use the slim setting. Your choice.

You can actually use Bodyslide to convert pretty near every clothing mod on the Nexus to fit the vanilla body. But as pointed out, CBBE has a vanilla shape option which is the vanilla body just made to look better.

You've got plenty of options for male clothing simple nexus searching will bring up. Note that those outfits tend to work just fine for females. I guess you should start there if you're truly dead set against body replacers. Of course, if you're looking for a female outfit with any sort of form-fitting style, the vast majority of those will require a body replacer, because the artists want to fit a more appealing or realistic form.

This! CBBE with the right slide settings can produce a body far more realistic than the vanilla body. CBBE even has a vanilla proportions option built into the installer, although I've never tried it so I can't say how closely it resembles the vanilla body. I can understand why somebody might not want to build bodyslide files for every outfit they download and why the prospect using a 3rd party tool to modify clothing items might be daunting. There are plenty of guides showing how to do it though. If followed carefully, there will be no problem.

Also note that you can take some outfits meant for a non-vanilla bodytype and build them with bodyslide to work for the vanilla body. The results will vary. Some will work out fine. Others will have clipping issues. For outfits that 'replace' body part meshes but still show skin on those parts, the textures will be really screwed up. The skimpier outfits are the least likely to work, so in theory, those wouldn't be attempted if you're trying to avoid 'sexualized' outfits. It will be a crapshoot no matter what. I would not recommend this, but it is an option for someone taking a hardline stance against body replacers and would get a few good outfits working.

I think Gopher's tutorial video can clear up this misunderstanding for body replacers as overly sexual. You can use which ever body preset you like. There is no need to make it sexual.

It is true that several clothing conversions go toward sexual or sensual nature, but not by all means all of them. It is also worth to point out that CBBE comes with all vanilla clothing and armor conversions, without editing their nature in any way.

Thanks for all your help. I'll look into this Bodyslide.

CBBE is pretty much the standard body mesh for all armor/clothing mods aswell.

Just use CBBE. If you don't want completely nude bodies then just use their Underwear body replacer.

Honestly vanilla body is terrible, cbbe is so much better and you can control it with body slide. Look at comparisons, its just a better body for both sexes.

It doesnt have to be slooty, unless you want it to be.
