Description:
With this mod you can get a new, smooth & feminine, high-poly female-hand model, fitted for SSE CBBE, UNP, SeveNbase, and the Vanilla-body.

Further you can choose to get manicured & polished Nails, craftable & enchantable, for those new hands.

  • The armored nails can be crafted at any forge under Elven and Dwarven. 
  • The clothing nails can be crafted at any forge under "misc"
  • Obtained Via Console. The Strongbox contains all the nails. 

6 colors/designs for the nails are available:
  • French White
  • Grey Tips
  • Zebra Red
  • Blood Red
  • Green
  • Blue, all in a shiny polished finish.
  • The Witch Nails are kept natural.

See ReadMe File for obtaining the nails via Console.

Installation:
THE NAILS (Options included in both the CBBE Hands and the HN66 Hands and Nail downloads)
  • Use a Mod Manager like Vortex, Wrye Bash, or MO2
THE HANDS (Option included in the HN66 Hands and Nails Download)
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex, Wrye Bash, or MO2.
Note:
If you use a Unique Race, and wanna use these hands for your own game-character only, your will have to copy & paste the nifs into your Unique race's specific mesh-folder.

Uninstall Instructions:
  • Uninstall using a Your Mod Manager.

SUPER IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ:
If you used the hands and nails as a REPLACER, you must delete all the following files from your data folder. If you don't, you will have purple nails forever and no one but yourself to blame:
  • ...data/meshes/actors/character/character assets/1stpersonfemalehands_0.nif
  • ...data/meshes/actors/character/character assets/1stpersonfemalehands_1.nif
  • ...data/meshes/actors/character/character assets/femalehands_0.nif
  • ...data/meshes/actors/character/character assets/femalehands_1.nif
You must reinstall your original hands if you are using CBBE or UNP.

Note:
I'm aware, that this mod might be not everyone's cup of tea, and I'm OK with that.
If you do not like this mod, then please leave without a comment.

INFO on gauntlets-compatibility 
Spoiler:  
Show
Many of the game's Gauntlets and Bracers include a hand mesh. Which looks clumsy like a paw in my opinion, and the effect of that?

When you have any body replacer installed in your game, and you equip any of the 'vanilla' gauntlets, like imperial or steel armor gauntlets, your body replacer's specific hands get exchanged by the 'vanilla' hands. That's normal. But irritating.

The Gauntlet Support Optional Plugin now corrects that effect. Whatever body and hand replacer you use, it's own hands will stay while you wear vanilla gauntlets. This affects both Male and Female Gauntlets.

I made this as support file for use with my Hand-Replacer, and for use with my Nails.

For all custom-armors, I hope they don't include hand meshes in their gauntlets, as actually that technique is nonsensical.

Important! The Skyrim game itself gets confused with modified mesh priorities for armor. The Gauntlets will sometimes disappear on the equipping of new armor or when loading the game. Simply Save and Reload to get everything to reorder itself like it should. So far as I know this is just a bug with the game itself and not an issue with the meshes!

Also, the mesh for the dark brotherhood Handwraps can cause weird gap in the arm in certain armors, it is not present when wearing the dark brotherhood robes. This is because the Handwraps are now using the wrist slot, but don't actually ever cover the wrist area.


Compatibility
  • These nails will work with Total Character Makeover by Scarla. If you are using the default textures however, in third person the nails are positioned in a way that the skin texture nails show fairly prominently. The nails are fine in first person. If you are using another body replacer with TCM, use the corresponding hand texture file in the optional downloads to remove the nails from the hand so the painted nails show correctly.

  • Oldrim CBBE Curvy (TBBP) and Demoniac Textures also cause issues with nail alignment.
  • Works with WICO - Windsong Immersive Character Overhaul by Windsong
