About this mod
Catalog of over 200 high-resolution tattoos in an .xcf/.psd file
- Permissions and credits
*This file is obsolete. LooksMenu by Expired6978 has since added Overlays which are a much easier and better way to add tattoos to your character. I will leave it available in case anybody wants to make overlays with it.*
INSTRUCTIONS:
Photoshop users: If you need more detailed instructions please refer to McGamer's Tattoo Tutorial. It is only 10 minutes and you can skip to the end because most of it is about what is already in this file.
The standard CBBE nude body texture is included as the base layer. If you want to use a texture (.dds) other than CBBE it's really easy to add the body texture(s) of your choice in seconds by dragging and dropping or copying and pasting. There are loads of tutorials on this site and Youtube to tell you how to do it if you're not sure. If you use one that is not CBBE compatible or is male you may have to adjust the positioning of the tattoos, no biggie. I'm sure there are steps I left out, if you need some help feel free to ask. I know it sucks getting tripped up on something simple, it took me forever to figure out the CTRL-L thing when it shouldn't have.
I was going to make some sets to upload with this filecliche popular ones like flowers, bugs, wings, and tribal...mostly. There are also faction tattoos so your character can proudly display her affiliation - on her ass. There are no dragons or skulls in there because they scare me.
Thanks to the awesomeness of Absorbed this file is now available in .psd format for Photoshop users!
Some of my other mods:
CombatCleavage - Enhanced Sideboob Edition this is the chest piece my lovely tattoo models are wearing
US Military Power Armor Paint
IDF Alarm
Thanks to Nero1n for being cool, be sure to check out his Wasteland Ink series
*Edit: The screenshots are just some samples. With 200 or so tattoos the possible combinations are like ...who am I kidding, I don't know how to do math. It's a lot though, probably enough that no two user created sets will ever be the same. Your tat set will be totally unique for your character.
BumNanner said " I decided to do some, by using only 8 tattoos, the possible combinations of 8 different tattoos is 55,098,996,177,225.
Fifty-five trillion, ninety-eight billion, nine hundred ninety-six million, one
hundred seventy-seven thousand, two hundred twenty-five.
So yes, plenty enough for no two users to create the same combination of tattoos."
There you have it, BumNanner did the math so now it's official. No other being in the entire universe until the end of time will have the same tattoo set as your character ;)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Make sure you have the .xcf version if using GIMP or the .psd for Photoshop
- Press CRTL-L to open the GIMP layers window.
- Tattoos are grouped by body part where they are currently placed, open a group by clicking the "+" next to it.
- Click on the little eyeballs to enable/disable each tattoo.
- Pick the ones you like in the places you like, some are the same tattoo in different spots.
- Some will overlap so you may not be able to use them together unless you move them around. They can also be combined to create new tattoos.
- Adjust colors, opacity, and whatever else to your preference. Most of them are already set to my preference which may not be yours.
- Once it looks like you want it to look, create a "new from visible" layer (in the "layers" tab) and make sure this new layer is on top in the layers window.
- Click the "Export as" option under the "File" tab. *Note: Be sure to click "export as", not "export"
- Navigate to the location of your "Femalebody_d.dds" file and replace it with your new file.
- A dialog box will pop up asking you about compression, click the DTX1 option and check the "generate mipmaps" box.
