looking for an alternative for looksmenu

[isomorphic_projection]

I installed bodyslide, build my body.
Game data path: C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\
Output path: C:\Modding\MO2\Paths\Fallout 4\F4SE\Plugins\F4EE\Presets\
Project path: empty, gets data from Game data path.

Load order:
Fallout4.esm
DLCRobot.esm
DLCworkshop01.esm
DLCCoast.esm
DLCworkshop02.esm
DLCworkshop03.esm
DLCNukaWorld.esm
DLCUltraHighResolution.esm
Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch.esp
HUDFramework.esm
CBBE.esp
EPO.esp
Immersive HUD.esp
LooksMenu.esp
LooksMenu Customization Compendium.esp

I got dollars
No sliders for the body, advanced is empty
Custom face colours, rollback to default after accepting

I read somewhere about disabling or enabling an ini file and adding to it. Can't find it anymore. It's everyones last hope. Cause everything almost got an update, except lmcc.

Your Output Path is wrong. You're telling BodySlide to put your body presets into the same location where LooksMenu puts theirs. Thats why BodySlide doesn't see them.

Also, you have a critical misunderstanding about LooksMenu and BodySlide. Those are TWO separate applications and they basically have NOTHING to do with each other.

LooksMenu handles your character's FACE and BodySlide handles your character's BODY. EACH application saves its presets in an entirely different location.

LooksMenu will give you the ability to make adjustments to your body in-game, provided you've checked off "Build Morphs" in BodySlide but thats all the interaction the two apps have with each other aside from adding overlays.

Now let me make this perfectly clear - I do NOT use MO2 and my answer is based on the assumption that there are NO SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS required to get LooksMenu and BodySlide working with that mod manager.

If there ARE, kindly disregard this post.

Looksmenu is ONLY for editing your face in-game.

Bodyslide is for editing the female body outside of the game, and modifying armors/clothes to fit the custom body.

The two have nothing to do with each other.

As for the custom skin color resetting, make sure your mouse cursor if not on the UI box on the right when accepting, because if it is, it'll select the standard preset colors.

But when it comes to the output path, what is it supposed to be. And please, start with c:\ some of us where born before the year 1990.

Looksmenu is dead, if they don't update it anymore. LMCC has since the last update a rant hidden against todd in the ini file.

Just leave it blank. BodySlide should default to its hardcoded location which is:

...../Data/Tools/BodySlide/SliderPresets

And LooksMenu is NOT dead. It does everything it's supposed to do. It hasn't been updated because there's been NO NEED TO. If you're having issues with that application, then check your installation since 99% of the problems people have with that app are related to that.

Like an invisible double tap.

Ah, I guess this is a troll / rant / flame thread now. Unfortunate.

Have fun.

Figured it out, first never listen to folk. That don't know that the dollar signs where a clue. MCM translation problem. Changed 6 ini files and copied and pasted 4 of them in the correct folders. The answers are every where accept the modders pages. They forgot to mention that it ain't supposed to work under mo2, it's just vortex and nmm.
