Modern Look - Colored Nails for CBBE
------------------------------------
This mod is designed to replace the extremely dated coloured nails
mod that is available for CBBE ( Colored Nails by Magistrate ) and make
your hands all pretty and stuff, giving your character a more modern look.
Feel free to edit or improve upon these textures if they are not quite up to
your liking. Enjoy!

Features
------------------------------------
* More accurate nail polish texture for CBBE than the one by Magistrate
* Nine colours to choose from by default
* NMM all-in-one installer so you can choose what you want
* GIMP dds template included for easily creating your own nail colours
------------------------------------
Installation
------------------------------------
NMM
------------------------------------
- Download the file through NMM
- Activate the mod in NMM
- Select which colours you want
Manual
------------------------------------
- Copy the contents of the folder for whatever colour you want to your "~/skyrim/"
folder
- If you only want fingernail colours, only copy femalehands_1.dds
- If you only want toenail colours, only copy femalebody_1.dds
------------------------------------
DDS Template - Advanced Users Only
------------------------------------
In the fomod folder in this archive, you will find a file called
"TEMPLATE-femalehands_1.xcf". I've made it easy for you to edit the template I
created to manually make whatever nail colours you want if you don't like the ones
I've made.
Fingernails
------------------------------------
- Use GIMP to open "TEMPLATE-femalehands_1.xcf" from the fomod folder in this archive.
- Select the layer called "(MERGE INTO MAIN SURFACE BEFORE EXPORTING)".
This layer has just the outlines of the fingertips included.
- Change the colour of just that layer so that the fingernails are the colour you
want. It's okay to have just a solid colour, since Skyrim has a separate lightmap
file so that your nails will still be shiny even with a solid texture. Also, be
aware that the nails will appear much lighter in game than how they look in GIMP.
- Export the file as "femalehands_1.dds". Make sure to use BC3 / DXT5 compression
and set it to generate mipmaps.
- Copy your newly made "femalehands_1.dds" to
~/skyrim/data/textures/actors/character/female/femalehands_1.dds
Toenails
------------------------------------
- Open femalebody_1.dds
- Draw a solid box of whatever colour you want over the tonail portion of the texture.
- Export the file as "femalebody_1.dds". Make sure to use BC3 / DXT5 compression
and set it to generate mipmaps.
- Copy your newly made "femalebody_1.dds" to
~/skyrim/data/textures/actors/character/female/femalebody_1.dds
- Yes it really is that easy. The toenails have a separated texture from the main
part of the foot, so it's easy as hell to change them. I have no idea why this
was not done for fingernails.
------------------------------------
Compatibility
------------------------------------
This mod is a replacer for the generic character textures, so it will replace the
nail colour of ALL characters in your game. If you want this to only affect your
character, you will need to use a mod like Custom Races and manually copy the textures
from inside this mod package into the proper places for your custom race.
This mod is only compatible with CBBE. This mod most likely will not work with
other body types.
This mod replaces the female hand textures (for fingernail colour) and the female
body texture (for toenail colour). If you have a different mod that modifies these
textures, it will not be compatible.

Credits
------------------------------------
Do whatever you want with it, as long it does not include monetary gain. I think
that forcing users to purchase mods is ridiculous and I in no way want to
affiliate myself with anyone who thinks they have the right to force users
to pay money for an unofficial modification to a game.
