About this mod

Adds plus-size bodies for player character creation.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Donations
This mod uses Kartoffel's Unique Tav framework to add plus-sized bodies to character creation. As it uses Unique Tav, the mod only replaces the player character, no NPCs are affected.

Hotfix 1.2:
-Fixed the Simple Robes having the wrong mesh

Hotfix 1.1:
-Fixed some LOD issues causing some clothing to vanish when the camera zooms out
-Added Angelic Scion outfit

Release 1.0 includes:
-Plus-sized body for Body Type 1 (Humans, Elves, Half-Elves, Drow, Tieflings, and Githyanki)
-Custom normal maps
-Plus-sized versions of all starting class outfits, and a few extras including camp clothes and underwear

More outfits will be added in future updates, as well as Body Type 2 and potentially other body types.

---------------------
Requirements
---------------------

-BG3 Mod Fixer
-Trips' Shader Pack
-Unique Tav (download both 'PAK' and 'DATA' files)
-Both Plus-Size Tav 'PAK' and 'Loose' files from 'Files' section
-Transmog Enhanced (not technically required but highly recommended)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation Instructions - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: These instructions are written for BG3 Mod Manager. Vortex should work similarly but I've never used it so unfortunately I can't give any instructions for it specifically.

1) Extract .pak files from Trips' Shader Pack, Unique Tav PAK, and Plus-Size Tav PAK to your BG3 'Mods' folder 
(C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods by default)

2) Extract the 'Generated' folders from both Unique Tav DATA and Plus-Size Tav Loose to your BG3 'Data' folder
(Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data by default)

3) In BG3MM, activate unique_tav > PlusSizeTav (Unique Tav MUST be before/above Plus-Size Tav in the load order).
Trips' Shaders should appear in the 'Overrides' section of BG3MM, meaning it is active without needing to put it in the load order.

If having issues with head/hair/other cosmetic mods, make sure Unique Tav and Plus-Size Tav are after those mods in the load order.

---------
Usage
---------

-When you open character creation the plus-size bodies should appear in their fitted outfits.
-The full collection of outfits can be acquired in an item called 'Plus-Size Wardrobe' which can be found in the Tutorial Chest (in the room where you find the rune slate on the Nautiloid, or summoned using Tutorial Chest Summoning) or purchased from various vendors throughout the game. If the wardrobe does not appear in the trader's stock, take a long rest and it should show up.
-Note that while the new bodies do not apply to hirelings, the modified starting loadouts do, so hirelings will start with plus-sized outfits even though they have default bodies. I will fix this in future if I find a way to.
-As mentioned above it is highly recommended that you use Transmog Enhanced, as the mod contains only a limited number of outfits that fit the new bodies with basic stats. Transmog allows you to apply any of the plus-size appearances to your favourite armours.
