Additional Textures for Growlf Hotbody
Release Version - R2
R2 Changes - A small update to the Dark Seducer texture. The color shade has been tweaked and should be more closely matched to the neck color. A plain version of the Dark Seducer is now available without the pink fingernails and stomach design. Pick one or the other to install. Or make a custom race and use both!:-)
Textures modified from original work created by Growlf. All the tweaking done by Sakatei (that would be me).
As of release R2 the additional textures supplied are for:
Dark Seducer
Dark Seducer Plain
Golden Saint
Dremora
Like the original Hotbody these textures are female only.
First of all a big thanks to Growlf for the advice and help with my texturing questions and for permission to upload these textures. These textures are all you with a speck of me. :-) The parts people do not like would be my work. :-)
Additional thanks goes to AlienSlof for creating the face textures that I used as the base for the Dremora body texture.
A final thanks to anyone who needs/uses these textures and likes them.
Requirements:
You needs SI for the Golden Saint and Dark Seducer textures. Please buy a copy.
You needs the Growlf Hotbody meshes from Growlf's Hot Clothes. Try version 4.1 or later.
I strongly recommend you install the Dremora face textures created by AlienSlof. They are not needed but the Dremora texture will look bizarre without them. The files can be found within Slof's Seamless Male Dremora Textures mod. This mod is a texture replacement for Robert's Seamless Male Body so if you do not have or want the additional male Dremora body textures do not install the files located inside the "male" directory. If you do not have Robert's Seamless Male Body mod the body textures will not work properly.
Installation:
The textures are in individual folders with their respective names. Simply open the desired folder and extract the "Data" folder to your Oblivion directory. Your operating system should ask you to overwrite files, this means you are putting the files in the right place.
As of version R1 each texture consists of a base texture and a normal map. These files are named handfemale.dds and handfemale_n.dds. If these files are already present in your Golden Saint/DarkSeducer/Dremora directories you need to find out what they are and where they came from. These files will be overwritten. The Growlf Hotbody does not put textures in these directories so they must be from somewhere else. Most likely a mod you choose to install.
An example of the directory structure would be this:
Oblivion\Data\Textures\characters\darkseducer\female\handfemale.dds
Anything in the "male" directory is OK.
After you have installed the textures you need to validate them to ensure they will display properly in Oblivion. Use OBMM (Oblivion Mod Manager). If you do not know what this is search and learn. This is a must for any modified Oblivion and you need to be familiar with how to use this program. There are more tutorials then you can shake a stick at so find one that you can understand.
Notes:
I have included three different normal map versions of the Dremora texture. They are in an optional folder and can be installed the same way as the other textures. There are three types of normal maps that I have included:
Smoother
Normal (Default)
Rough
The default map is already included in the Dremora texture folder so you only install that one if you want to return to the default. Find the one that you like the best and use it. Normal maps alter the surface of an object in Oblivion. It can raise certain areas of an object to make it look bumpy or rough. Pay attention to the smoothness of the Dremora skin and the body decals with the different normal maps.
The Future:
NOTE - I will be ridiculously busy for the next month so do not look for anything soon. I will add custom race plugins for the Dark Seducer to give players the chance to use both textures if desired.
Barring something bad I will be updating these textures. The Dark Seducer and Golden Saint are finished unless there is a problem that comes to my attention. The Dremora is finished but not finished. :-) I still consider it a WIP and will continue to tweak it or maybe start a new Dremora texture from scratch. I will be adding at least one more additional texture (Ainmhi?) for the Hotbody. It depends on what I can or cannot accomplish. I will probally include a plugin that adds custom races for any new textures. This will allow you to use any new textures in combination with older textures. This means your PC character of a certain race can have a different body texture than that of every other occurrence of that race in Oblivion. Or maybe you want to add a unique companion with an original texture.
*I have no prior experience in texturing so I used freeware and the community (Growlf) to create these textures. Things may need to be tweaked and I would appreciate feedback to help improve them. Any negative comments that are subjective will be ignored unless it gives me inspiration. :-) I hope these do the trick.
