Changelogs
I overhauled the mesh and the UV map for the base hands, as well as all the clan-specific hands the Unofficial Patch+ adds. This also replaces the casting hands UP+ adds with the updated models.

Update, 19 Sep 2023: I've updated the mod to match the updated hands (work done by yours truly) from UP+ 11.5. If 11.5 is not updated on Nexus Mods yet, you can get the latest version from MODDB.

Are these compatible with other texture mods? Yes. I made sure of it. While I was cleaning up the original hands for UP 11.5, I took the opportunity to make sure all texture mods will be compatible all model mods. :)

New Male Hands with The Vampire Diaries Ring is fine.

Beautiful Monster - Female Hands Retexture: I added a version of the female hands with edited UV mapping to match these textures.

Player Hands Improved: I told tahril in advance that UP+ 11.5 will break his mod, and he told me he'll update after the UP+ does. So that will be fixed soon enough if it's not done yet.

Install instructions:

Place the "models" folder in your "Unofficial Patch" folder, overwriting the files from the UP.

*IF* you use Beautiful Monster, first install the main "models" folder, then copy the "models" folder from the "female hands for Beautiful Monster" folder to the "Unofficial Patch" folder.
