Feedback
I disabled commenting and endorsements due to trolling. I thought it might be a good idea to include feedback questions from private messages here though.
Q - What armour is Rhiannon wearing in the 'Rhiannon - Clothed' screenshot?
A - It's NPR/KURESE's Gloria & Trish Armor. My favourite clothing/armour modder in the game. I can't praise their work enough.
Q - Why is Rhiannon a custom race?
A - She's actually an exact copy of the Wood Elf race statistically. The duplicate was made so that custom meshes and textures didn't become the default for the basic Wood Elf race.
Description
Rhiannon is a Wood Elf Archer, developed for use with CM Partners Mod. She can be found munching cookies and dreaming of new shoes at Luther Broad's Boarding House in the Imperial City's Elven Gardens District.
This is my first attempt to create a mod. After making a few mistakes in a beta version, I'm fairly sure that everything is now working as intended and conflict-free.
I have to confess, I don't 'play' much Oblivion myself. Instead, I tend to use the game as a virtual canvas for experimenting with my own and others' work. Having said this, Rhiannon is pretty much a copy of Blackie's Bree template, with alterations being primarily visual.
She's been improved quite a bit since the beta version. Along with the hybrid body texture - a mix of Ozmo and navetsea's amazing work - I've added working eyelashes, whiter teeth etc. The links to all the great mods used to piece Rhiannon together are listed in the 'Thanks' section.
The file is slightly larger than typical companion mods due to having the hybrid 4096x4096 body textures included. I might consider a 'lite' version if enough people request it, but I'd imagine most players have systems capable of handling the high-resolution textures nowadays.
Requirements
CM Partners Mod must be installed and working correctly.
Recommendations
HG EyeCandy Body is highly recommended. The specific model used in the main screenshots is HGEC Normal, C-cup, Medium lower. Models used in alternative versions are listed under 'Updates'.
The textures should work fine with most body replacers, although they haven't been tested. Set Body and Set Body Self is a great tool for experimenting with shapes and sizes.
Compatibility
There should be no compatibility issues as all required meshes and textures are included in the installation. There may always be an exception, but unless you use a mod that changes the default mesh for the human head or teeth, there shouldn't be any problems. Feel free to contact me if you find an issue, and I'll do my best to rectify it.
Installation
Extract the 7-Zip archive to a temporary location.
Copy the contained 'Data' folder into your 'Oblivion' folder.
Enable 'A CM Partner - Rhiannon.esp' in your Oblivion launcher.
Note: Part of Mur_Zik's Sexywalks is included in the main installation. If you already have a particular version you use, then select no when given the option to overwrite. The '0Sexywalk01.kf' file can also be safely removed from the 'Data/Meshes/Characters/_male/specialanims' folder if you don't want to use the animation.
To install any alternative versions of Rhiannon, repeat the above procedure, overwriting files when prompted. The main file must be installed first however, as alternative versions will only contain specifically updated files.
Uninstallation
Delete 'A CM Partner - Rhiannon.esp' from your 'Oblivion/Data' folder.
Delete both 'Rhiannon' folders from 'Oblivion/Data/Meshes/Characters/binaryme' and 'Oblivion/Data/Textures/Characters/binaryme'. If you have no other mods created by myself, you can also safely remove the 'binaryme' folders.
Note: See the installation comments regarding Mur_Zik's Sexywalks.
Thanks
I've attempted to be as professional as possible in crediting others for their work. If you feel your name belongs here, or see some of your work and don't want it here, contact me and I'll correct the oversight as soon as possible.
Cutthroat Mods/Blackie for CM Partners Mod.
Exnem for the original Female EyeCandy Body Replacer.
Hirdamanapulu for Female Woodelf Savegame.
This was the face that got me started playing with Wrye Bash and TES Construction Set. Although she's been changed beyond recognition for Rhiannon, I still think the original is a great looking face.
jclyde6108 for White Teeth.
Kafeid for Multi-pierced Ears.
LazyMonk for Tribal Tattoos Resource.
I'm not sure which specific designs were used for Rhiannon, but LazyMonk gives his credit to SelfAbortingSeed, jakofheartz, commiealex, Tanesh, Glyph, SLRdesign and BlueEyesFairy for their awesome tattoo designs. Extra thanks for providing this as a .psd file!
Mur_Zik for Sexywalks.
navetsea for F-INevOblivion Skinset and Ozmo for High-Res Skin Textures for HGEC.
Both these texture sets were used to create a hybrid for Rhiannon. For example the base skin belongs to Ozmo, and the edited body hair and facial make-up originate from navetsea's work. I highly rate both these sets, and would like to offer special thanks for supplying their creations in .psd files for amateurs like me to play with!
RAIAR and Madcat221/}{ellKnight for HG EyeCandy Body.
SydneyB for Ashara's Sirens and Tritons.
I generally use this as a resource as it's such a good collection of hair and eyes. Specifically for Rhiannon:
throttlekitty and jclyde6108 for Working Eyelashes.
Specifically for Rhiannon:
thumpthing for Set Body and Set Body Self.
Additional Thanks
