About this mod
This is a mesh edit which makes the Pip-Boy less clunky so it fits better with female body replacer.
I aligned the mesh to the CBBE Zeroed Slider Body.
If you don't think the Pip-Boy fits too loose on your character this mod is not for you.

This is an edit of the vanilla ThirdPerson Pip-Boy mesh so it fits better to female body replacer.
I aligned the mesh to the CBBE Zeroed Slider Body (Check the comparison Screenshot).
For the FirstPerson mesh I simply took the ThirdPerson mesh and renamed it (not because me being
lazy, I tried to work with the original mesh, but many more issues occurred compared to the Third-
Person mesh).
It works without crashes and is fully functional, but:
The FirstPerson mesh now hasn't got any animations (the hand still does the animations), no holotape
animation, no turning the buttons. Hands and Pip-Boy are not aligned (not fixable).
The glow overlay is different, now if you enter the Pip-Boy menu with Pip-Boy light on, you will get
dazzled (just check the screenshot).
These issues are the reason why I release the FirstPerson mesh as an OPTIONAL file.
This mesh doesn't offer Bodyslide features.
It will not work (clipping issues) with thick clothing (like a coat for example).
Also if you don't think the Pip-Boy fits too loose on your character this mod is not for you.
Fallout 4 uses the same Pip-Boy mesh for female and male characters, which means my mod
will clip with the arm of male characters.
Installation:
You can install my mod with the ModManager.
If you want to install it manually then download the archive and put the content in your
Fallout 4 Data folder.
Unistallation:
Uninstall the mesh with the ModManager or manually delete the file from your data folder
(check the archive for the folder path and filename).
Compatibility:
My mod should be compatible with every Pip-Boy retexture.
It's incompatible with mods which alter the 3d model of the Pip-Boy (like the Pip-Boy Flashlight Mod).
Have fun!

Q&A:
Q: Will you do a Bodyslide version?
A: Nope, I don't use Bodyslide, ingame I use the base Zeroed Slider Body.
Q: Will you do different sizes?
A: Nope, already took me some hours to do this one mesh.
Q: Your Modpage looks horrible!
A: This is not a question but yeah I know.
Q: Will you do a version for XBone?
A: Nope, just one for PS4; just kidding. Since I don't own a Fallout 4 version for PS4/XBone so I can test my mod there won't be a console version.
