Let me get straight to the point. This has been a labor of love for quite some time, as well as something that has been repeatedly asked for by a lot of people. But, I have finally done it. This mod adds new meshes that Argonian females use that are breast free. Or at least, the best looking I could do, given the circumstances.
I also have included a tweaked female body texture and normal map that minimizes the look of boobs even more
--- Versions ---
All mod files are STAND ALONE, you only need one. I'm saving you room on your mod list. Download the one that matches the expansions you own. Dawnguard and Dragonborn are both supported.
--- To Install ---
1. Grab the file that fits your game with NMM or similar mod organizer and activate it.
For manual installation, extract the data folder inside the .rar to your Skyrim folder.
--- To Uninstall ---
1. Deactivate the mod in NMM
For manual uninstalling, delete the Argonian folder in the meshes/actors/character folder and remove the BreastlessArgonianFemales.esp from the data folder.
--- Compatibility ---
This mod is compatible with any body mod for males or females. Male argonians will use the meshes from whatever male body mod you have installed.
This mod is NOT compatible with
--- Mods that change vanilla clothes and armor enough to drastically replace the textures
If you have a clothing replacer mod that uses a different texture layout than vanilla, the Argonian female meshes will look really weird
--- Female Argonian textures that do not fit the vanilla body.
If you have the fixed CBBE textures or whatever, there will be visual issues. Just grab the one that fits the vanilla body if you want to use one besides the one included in the mod.
There MAY BE compatibility issues with
--- Mods that extensively change the stats or other features of vanilla armor, such as overhauls. You will likely need to make a patch in TES5edit for everything to work.
--- Mods that change the footmesh for Argonians.
I pointed the game to the vanilla footmesh for the sake of cohesiveness. If you want to use the Raptor Feet mod, or a similar foot replacer, just put it underneath this mod in the load order.
Sadly, any custom armor you have that has visible boobs will appear as normal on female Argonians. There is no simple 'remove boobs' button to press, otherwise I would have, ages ago. I'm working on compatibility stuff for the future, however.
--- Current Issues ---
One of the Jarl Clothes and Ulfric's clothes still use the default female meshes.
--- FAQ ---
Q. Some of the outfits look like they still have boobs.
A. Yeah, sorry about that. The normal maps for the female clothing items have a certain amount of built in roundness in them. For the sake of compatibility I've left them alone.
Q. No I mean some of the meshes seem untouched/have bad clipping issues/have some other issue that's your fault.
A. Oh! My bad. Just leave a message in the comments and I'll try to fix it ASAP.
Q. How are we supposed to tell the female Argonians from the male Argonians if the females don;t have boobs??
A. Lizards don't have boobs! But do you know what they do have? Killer thighs.
Same thing with Argonians.
Q. But aren't Argonians technically trees?
A. Yes well guess what trees also have--
That's right, killer thighs, boom, argument destroyed, discussion over.
Q. But aren't trees all technically hermaphrodites?
A. I SAID DISCUSSION OVER. Anyways, what I really mean by all this is that whether Argonians have breasts or not is a matter of personal taste. If you accept the explanation that Argonians who have ingested less Hist are more humanoid (and thus have boobs), more power to you. I'm not going to judge you for your interpretation of the lore.
And that being said, while the female Argonians in my mod look rather androgynous by themselves, next to a male Argonian, you can tell the difference pretty easily.
Q. I want a version without underwear, can you make it?
A. Just delete the underwear branch in nifskope in femalebody_0.nif and femalebody_1.nif yourself.
Q, I don't like the vanilla body, can you make one based on CBBE or UNP?
A. CBBE has that whole body slide program, you can make a flat chested mesh yourself and then put the vanilla armors. Once you've done that you can replace my meshes in the Argonian file with yours. It matches the vanilla item sorting almost exactly so it shouldn't be hard. Otherwise, no. I don't like editing meshes that are that high in polys that aren't mine.
Q. I have custom armor that has a unique mesh effect/cool shader. Since the female Argonian uses a different mesh it looks weird. How can I make them use the edited mesh?
A. Just replace the used mesh that's in the meshes/actors/character/Argonian folder with your own.
Q. Can you make breastless meshes for _________ mod?
A. Yes, but it's going to take me a very long while to make compatibility patches for EVERYTHING, and I'll be starting with the mods I want to use myself. If you have a particular request, though, I'll try to get to it.
Q. Can you make breastless meshes for [random skimpy armor] mod?
A. Uhhhhhhh. I can try?

Special thanks to JZBai for letting me use some of their meshes from the Practical Female Armors mod here: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48160/?
