.: Overview :.
Old Fashion makes sure the oldest women in Skyrim keep their original look when you use female armor and clothing replacers. It does that by distributing old-fashioned versions of original outfits to elderly and mature female NPC. Similar mods only affect unique characters and revert just the torso using a pre-defined body shape, possibly causing seams around their wrists and ankles. Old Fashion, on the other hand, can affect unique and non-unique characters alike and reverts their whole body to ensure there are no visible gaps. It can also revert textures, in case the outfit replacer you use makes changes to them as well.
.: Features :.
.: Requirements :.
Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) : Always.
BodySlide and Outfit Studio and Caliente's Beautiful Bodies Enhanced (CBBE) : Only if you want to customize the outfits.
XP32 Maximum Skeleton Special Extended (XPMSSE), plus CBPC or FSMP : Only if you want to enable physics.
.: Compatibility :.
Thanks to SPID, Old Fashion is compatible with any NPC appearance overhaul, including Project Cougar. Your major concern should be mods that overhaul armor, clothing and outfits, such as Weapons Armor Clothing and Clutter Fixes (WACCF) and Armor and Clothing Extension (ACE). Luckily for you, patches for both are provided. ACE users, however, should further install the SPID patch available at ACE's mod page, under Optional Files. Lastly, enchanted leveled items were left out for maximum compatibility with enchanting overhauls and, although USSEP isn't required, its changes have been carried over.
.: Installation :.
Old Fashion has two modules that can be installed or uninstalled anytime.
You can merge both together or leave them in separate folders. It's your call.
Core Fomod
Inside you'll find documentation describing step-by-step how to generate meshes and textures.
You can install Data module to jump right into play or to use its files as placeholders for customization.
Data Fomod
.: Load Order :.
The core plugin can be placed anywhere.
If you use any patches, reveal the spoilers below to see how your load order should look like.
WACCF
WACCF + ACE
.: Known Issues :.
The shape of mature NPC's outfit may not match the shape of their naked body.
- Use Equippable Underwear for NPCs or simply apply the same preset to mature and young NPC.
Young characters wearing an old-fashioned outfit will have their body shape overridden.
- Bring the outfit to a tanning rack for refitting before equipping it on young characters (including PC).
.: Currently not Included :.
BH(UNP) support
- I don't use it at the moment, so I can't reliably test or provide support for it.
Skin textures
- I'd like to make an addon to reset skins as well, but first I need to figure out a way to do so without changing NPC records.
Male NPC
- My initial idea was to include old male NPC, but just female turned out to be more work than I anticipated.
.: Recommendations :.
My Mods
Shape Shift : Dynamically modify visual aspects of your character, from head to body, in and out of combat.
Triple Triad Tamriel Tweaked : A collection of tweaks and fixes for Triple Triad Card Game in Skyrim: Tamriel Edition.
Better Blades : Recruit up to 9 blades. Gear them up according to their skills. Change your dragon hunting party.
Helm Hair : Give your character a hairline to exhibit under headgear while using custom hairstyles.
Body Language : Dynamically replace animations based on character's personality. Powered by dualsun's Pretty Idles.
Unique Physique : Class-based muscularity for NPC and exclusive muscularity for the playable character.
Slider Splicer : A command line script to combine 0 and 100 weight sliders from any number of different BodySlide presets.

I'd like to say thanks to some authors whose work made Old Fashion possible.
