About this mod

Changes Arissa (version 2.2.2) to use your default body meshes and textures, and fixes her "What do you know about this place?" silence.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This mod changes Arissa - The Wandering Rogue (version 2.2.2) to use your default body meshes and textures.

"But don't we already have one of those?"

Yes, Arissa - The Wandering Rogue (Default Body and Texture patch) also has Arissa using default body meshes and textures. The way it handles the head textures differs from this mod, but the result is the same.

"Then why did you make this patch?"

A few reasons:

1) That mod, for no obvious reason, changes her default outfit. Arissa's default outfit, named "_Arissa_BaseOutfit" in the mod, is the stock ClothesMerchantClothes and ClothesMerchantBoots. Mod 19441 says it "reassigns her default armor to a simple vanilla game hide armor to avoid having her body clip through her armor", but that doesn't make sense; her DOFT is already "simple vanilla game...armor". In fact, all of Arissa's outfits are stock items (there are no armor/clothing meshes in the mod); the ESM just gives one set different names ("Thieves Guild Variant XXX" becomes "Weatherworn Burglar's XXX").

Arissa's original body is a CBBE variant; as shown in the image, having her equip a UNP-based armor will result in the usual texture mismatches. With this patch in place, she will match your default body textures.


Perhaps of greater interest:

2) This mod is ESL-flagged; Mod 19441 is not, so it takes up a limited non-FE load-order slot even though it contains zero non-override records.

3) This mod, thanks to Reddit user AmechanosIason, makes her "What do you know about this place?" dialog work, albeit with an extra click of the pointer. The dialog isn't that exciting--it's basically repeats of some of her random-idle comments--but the non-working conversation topic seems to bother some people, so this mod turns it back on.


NOTE: If you use an appearance replacer for Arissa, like Froztee's excellent Arissa Re-Imagined SE, load this patch before that replacer. That way, this patch will apply the fix for the dialog, and the appearance replacer will determine how Arissa looks.



My Donation-Point policy:

1) 50% goes to Doctors Without Borders.
2) If my mod is a patch, NPC based on a preset, or otherwise derived from mods from other authors, 40% is split between the authors of those mods. If my mod does not depend on another author's work, the 40% goes to the Red Cross.
3) 10% goes to me.
