How it started

I was so sad to see poor roach running with the ridiculous vanilla skin appearance and there was no faithful E3 roach mod out on nexus.
So 
I decided to make on my own and I took reference from uncompressed screenshots of the E3 demo and finally corrected the appearance on roach as intended. Now it looks most beautiful than ever.

Installation

Choose any one of the available versions and just drop the contents of DLC & Mods to your game directory.
**Note**
" Tooklighting users need to give this mod higher priority over tooklighting to work properly. Use script merger to easily do that."


Uninstall

Remove it from the mods directory.


Compatibility

This mod is not compatible with any other roach modification mods that changes the base body of roach. This includes changes to textures, meshes, materials etc. So please don't ask for how to merge with this and that.

Future

A significant amount of time & effort has been put into making everything near-perfect and identical to the pre-release footage. So now I can safely say that this is my best work for roach yet and that's why it's the Final Version. So no main updates are planned for future but Optional addons will be added as needed.
