Light Male Body Hair

Light Male Body Hair

Updates

– Added normal maps (see images).

Screenshots

Please, feel free to upload any images of your own if you feel into it. I’m not very patient to do it and it would probably be very helpful to others to see it ingame, I guess my own screenshots don’t show it properly. Thank you if you do it =)

What and why

Although every body has its own share (or lack) of body hair, unfortunately Bethesda gave us one body/texture for them all. I really dislike when male bodies look like plastic dolls in realistic-look games.

This is my attempt at giving the default human male body some body hair, not much and not too few (as seems to be the vanilla one). Feel free to use, modify (credits are welcome), criticize..

The only modified files are the diffuse ones for the body (default and dirty), hands and head (young and base). Maybe I’ll tweak normal maps, I don’t know if it’s needed but sure it would make some nicer overall effect.

Overall, it’s just a tweaked/sharpened (to bring more details) default vanilla body texture with added body hair. If it suits you, enjoy. =)

Installation

Chose one of the 2 available files, there are the 4096×4096 (main) and the 2048×2048 (optional) options. You only need one of those.

Extract the Textures folder into {your Steam games path}\Fallout4\Data\ OR use NMM.
In your Fallout4.ini, make sure your line with this property:

sResourceDataDirsFinal=

has TEXTURES\, for example:

sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\, TEXTURES\, MUSIC\, SOUND\, INTERFACE\, MESHES\, PROGRAMS\, MATERIALS\, LODSETTINGS\, VIS\, MISC\, SCRIPTS\, SHADERSFX\

(for ths mod only TEXTURES\ is needed, what else you have in this line depends. Add it if it doesn’t exist.)
