Thank you to everyone for all the support, please enjoy the new version.
TLDR: Dante's mod Vault-Tec Suit and my REDUX version are two separate mods based on Dante's original mod Another Combat Armor, and after continued updates, ended up having different features and styles.
Shortly after I first released my mod, someone reported both our mods, saying the rebreather mask was taken from Niero's CROSS Institute Tech-Mask pack, causing both of our mods to be hidden by Nexus staff. I was able to get permission from Niero to use their mask, and was able to have my mod unhidden. I'm not sure what happened with Dante and their original mod, but it unfortunately remained hidden, and still is now.
Because of all this, Dante's mod was no longer available and people couldn't find it anymore, and I couldn't upload it, so I had to re-write and re-pack my mod completely to be standalone and no longer depend on the original.
Now Dante has released their new versions of their armour set and mask, with new assets, and I kept updating mine based on the old version, so now it's two different mods based on their original Another Combat Armor.
Classic High Heels & Outfit Studio:

If you are using BodySlide v5.6.0, it may momentarily freeze when viewing the bodysuits with the classic heels style in the preview window or loading them in Outfit Studio. It will eventually unfreeze if you wait, it takes less then a minute for my PC.
This will only occur when you viewing the outfit piece, it will still build properly, and works properly in-game. Just don't open the preview window.
I have left a bug report on the BodySlide page, hopefully its fixed in a future update.
KNOWN WORK AROUND: Don't open the preview window while building the bodysuits. You can also rollback to BodySlide & Outfit studio 5.5.2., as it doesn't suffer from this issue.

Hi quick question, where are the big armor places on the arms like on your screenshot? like the one in your pic with the brotherhood insignia, i have downloaded the extra armor plate thing but i can not find it:(?
Oh i just saw now i am really blind lol, btw you have a screenshot there with the exo helmet i assume? and some visor in front of it these one eye thing wit h3 red dots, how do i get that ? i fr looked throu all helmet parts this time lol and didnt found it
oh gotcha, also just saw you updated what you mean by " new version aviable here" does vault tec combat armor also have the pieces/armor from here ? or i just missunderstand:o
The new VTAC REDUX is basically update v.9 of this mod here. So much was changed and added with v.9, that it warranted it's own page. The new version includes everything from this one, and is easily upgraded to.
Upgrade instructions are in the pinned in the posts section on the new page, in the large info post. 👍
Oh so basicly i can just get redux, and get everything i can have here from this one too? what is the update here then? also i need to empty the archive? because mo 2 does not recognize it?
Oh sorry just understood now xD thanks for the great armor !
Not sure if this is a bug, or a failed download on my end, but the Duster Overcoat is a metallic chrome, with purple buttons and lines on the back.. Purple normally means missing texture, but I am not sure about the chrome..
When using NMM to install Vault Tec Armor Redux v.8- BodySlides Atomic, an error message will appear and the installation will fail I have installed CBBE and Atomic Beauty. Has anyone encountered this problem before?
I never used NMM, but I would suggest you try manually installing the mod.
And as Michaelmtv1226 said, you can't use CBBE and AB at the same time. There's no harm in having both downloaded, as they are just BodySlide files, but you can only build one or the other.
- It's not compatible with any other body model. - It's not a CBBE mesh, but it's compatible with any CBBE textures.
And regarding using NMM CE latest version, sometimes and very few times Fomod or standard can chrash very rare so either try again and if its only BS files manual download unzip and drag - drop to data folder.
Awesome mod! I have only one tiny little problem with the rebreather masks. They don't seem to be colored differently when changing the style. Looks always the same. Dark gray with two little cyan parts and the mask glass looks pixelated.
There isn't as many colour options for the rebreathers as there is for the suits. Most swaps use the same colours, so choose the one you think matches best with the other pieces of equipment you're using at the time.
Just installed the 3BBB version, all is working fine except the arm plates are clipping horribly. Backed out of the game to try and fix it, only to find there are no arm plate meshes to be found in Bodyslide. What am I missing here?
EDIT: holy cow, ignore me I made an embarrassingly stupid mistake

Regarding my REDUX mod and Dante's Vault-Tec Suit:
Full story:
My mod, Vault-Tec Armor REDUX, started as an add-on expansion pack made for Dante's original mod Another Combat Armor.
Shortly after I first released my mod, someone reported both our mods, saying the rebreather mask was taken from Niero's CROSS Institute Tech-Mask pack, causing both of our mods to be hidden by Nexus staff. I was able to get permission from Niero to use their mask, and was able to have my mod unhidden. I'm not sure what happened with Dante and their original mod, but it unfortunately remained hidden, and still is now.
Because of all this, Dante's mod was no longer available and people couldn't find it anymore, and I couldn't upload it, so I had to re-write and re-pack my mod completely to be standalone and no longer depend on the original.
Now Dante has released their new versions of their armour set and mask, with new assets, and I kept updating mine based on the old version, so now it's two different mods based on their original Another Combat Armor.

Go here and get the new version: VTAC REDUX
ALSO thank you for this awesome looking armor!
They can be worn with the Exo helms equipped, allowing you have a spotlight while wearing the armour.

It's all written in the info post on the new page. Follow those steps and you'll have no problem.
I have installed CBBE and Atomic Beauty.
Has anyone encountered this problem before?

If you plan to use some of the suits with skin showing on female characters, you'll also need CBBE.
If you want to make use of the high heels options, you'll need FOHHS as well.
