This plug-in replaces the segmented bodies of the Argonians and Khajiit with new smooth deforming ones with seamless textures. It works with my Unique Shadow Pack which gives the beast races distinct shadows.
Check for new versions at www.liztail.com.
The clothing fixing functionality of this mod has been made a part of Better Clothes 1.0, which is now fully compatible with all my bodies. You can get better clothes from Psychodog Studios at www.psychodogstudios.com
My Unique Shadow Pack mod must be installed in order to keep the new racially unique shadows from conflicting with the game’s default beast shadow.
Copy the contents of this ZIP file to your Morrowind folder. This is usually:
C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind
There is a Data Files folder in the archive, so make sure you don’t accidentally unzip it to your Data Files folder. If you do, you will end up with another Data Files folder inside the real one.
Simply disable the plug-ins. If desired, you can remove the new_beast folders from the Meshes and Textures folders and delete the plug-in files.
2.0
1.7
The mod
archive includes 3 plug-in files which you can activate in the Data Files
section of the game launch screen by double-clicking the checkbox next to
them.
You do not
need to activate all of them. Only
activate the ones you want to use!
The
Argonians and Khajiit are spilt into two plug-in files so you may choose to use
my bodies for one race, and someone else’s for another. The list below
lists all the plug-ins from both versions of the mod. You will only have ones that match the version
you downloaded, unless you downloaded both versions.
Clean
New Argonian Bodies - Clean.esp
This plug-in file replaces the bodies of all Argonians in the game with new ones that have no graphic nudity. They have no underwear because they were naked in the original game, but there is no graphic anatomical detail.
New Khajiit Bodies - Clean.esp
This plug-in file replaces the bodies of all Khajiit in the game with new ones that have no graphic nudity. They have no underwear because they were naked in the original game, but there is no graphic anatomical detail.
Mature
New Argonian Bodies - Mature.esp
This plug-in file replaces the bodies of all Argonians in the game with new ones that are anatomically correct in a reptilian way. Not particularly graphic, but not really clean either.
New Khajiit Bodies - Mature.esp
This
plug-in file replaces the bodies of all Khajiit in the game with new ones that
depict graphic human-like nudity.
Both
Better Heads Male Argonian Neck Fix.esp
This is an
optional plug-in that fixes compatibility with a particular mod. If you
have no problems, don’t use it. For
some reason the Better Heads 2.0 mod, which I happen to use, deletes the
original Argonian male neck and replaces it with Argonian Male Neck #2 which
uses the female Argonian neck model. This strange edit causes two necks
to appear on top of each other when my mod is loaded. This optional
plug-in file fixes that. If you do not use Better Heads 2.0 and are not
experiencing this problem, then you do not need to enable this plug-in. It seems Better Heads 2.0 may not have been
an official release because it has become very hard to find. I think It combined better heads with the Better
Heads Argonians Playable Heads Pack.
The male Argonian has a strange second neck interpenetrating the neck that’s part of the new body.
You probably have Better Heads 2.0 installed. This mod has an error in it which deletes the normal Argonian neck and replaces it with an identical one. If this is your problem, enable the Better Heads Argonian Male Neck Fix.esp plug-in file which comes with this mod. If you do not have this problem, then the fix plug-in does NOT need to be activated.
I’m not using your Argonians, but the male Argonian neck has now completely disappeared.
You probably accidentally enabled the Better Heads Argonian Male Neck Fix.esp plug-in file. If you’re not using my Argonians, you should NOT enable it.
The Argonians aren't compatible with all Better Bodies compatible Clothing.
This is unavoidable because BB compatible clothing requires the exact BB meshes and skin weights to work properly. The Khajiit were designed to come as close to BB compatibility as possible, but the Argonian bodies are completely different. However, I've worked with the Better Clothes team to make sure that that popular clothing mod is fully compatible with the Argonians.
The shadows look weird, like two different bodies are overlapping.
You need to install my Unique Shadow Pack mod to disable the game's default shadow and add the new shadow to the stock bodies, Slof's Better Beasts, and the Mog*Mod.
I want nudity!
You must have downloaded the clean version of the mod by mistake. If you want to see nudity, download the mature version instead.
I don't want nudity!
You must have downloaded the mature version of the mod by mistake. If you don’t want to see nudity, download the clean version instead.
I have the ‘mature’ version, but I don’t see any nudity on these Argonians…
The mature version of the Argonians depicts external reptilian reproductive anatomy which you may not recognize as nudity in a human sense. Also, since the underside of the tail is out of view most of the time during normal game play, you’d probably have to be watching out for it to notice it. I have no plans to release a version which depicts mammalian reproductive parts on Argonians.
Only one race seems to have changed
Make sure you have the Plug-in ESP file for both races enabled.
You do not need to ask permission to use any part of this mod for any reason =) All of the following is fine:
