@ Risray - The last few look good enough for a FF cinematic. 

I wouldn't go that far, but thanks xD

Risray, I'm sorry if you've already said this, but what body and head are you using. Your girl looks great!

Body: ZKEC D upperbody with ZKEC Xwide lowerbody

What's the nice top in the pic ? Mod or Link please. ( maybe I have it but cant find it in my 100GB clothes-armor packed-Mods )

 

That towell?...It's from Zeo's House in Riverside, I would post link if I could find one that's still working...

Risray Your characters are so freaking good. How long do you work on them and in which do you modify them ? Also which race do you use for it ?

I want to try something with face modifying in some way so thats why I ask.

Thanks

That depends on the characters, can take from a few days to years (if you count my first character that was made in late 2009 and every now and then still gets a few changes/upgrades)  but I'm never really done working with them, this last character, the one in my latest pics took only a day or two since she was made from what few files I had saved as a backup before my last computer decided to go "kaput".

I modify everything except the headmesh itself, as for the races I use a lot of different ones (this last character uses the FF race).

If that 2 year old reply is about how people make their characters:

custom textures (even a little gimp/photoshop edit can take you far), correct meshes thats 50% about it. There are crapton of resources but in the end all depends on "you". How you want your game to look.

 

Also playing with head sliders is another "skill". The most important sliders are nose, jaw, skin and forehead/eye related things.

Vanilla, Ren and Head06 variants have the biggest changes how you move them. Moira? head and FF and some anime heads have little to no change when you use sliders.

Moira, XEO, Carrier and LOP headmeshes are all Ren's headmesh variants, and they do change A LOT with sliders, FF (the original one), Digital Girl and EVY headmeshes are the only ones where the sliders make more subtle changes.

CS face render is not exactly accurate, the face you see there will always be different ingame.

I use and highly recommend this mod to kill those stupid smiles on NPCs and Companions.

Wow! Those pictures a pretty! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks

Adding up to everything that was said above:

- Regardless of having the ingame AA on or off, FRAPS is the best choice for taking screenshots.

- You should try the "Fov *insert value here*" command, the default is "Fov 70", the lower the value the more camera zooms in, the higher the value the more it zooms out, this is especially useful for taking close-up/portrait shots, note however that this command will reset as soon as you close the console, the trick is once you find the right angle and fov value, keep the console open and type "dof1" (this command will completely wipe everything hud/console/menu related of the screen), do not close the console, take the screenshot; to restore everything that dof1 removed, just type "dof".

- You can freeze any NPC/Creature (and even your character) during their actions by opening the console, clicking on the target and typing "tai", typing this again will restore them to their normal state/behaviour.

- "tcl" command will disable collisions, meaning you can just walk trough everything and objects will stay wherever they where, for example if you throw let's say a sword into the air and then type "tcl", the sword will just stay there floating; repeat the command to enable collisions again.

- "setfog [start depth, end depth]" (the image in the link explains pretty well how it works) command controls the in-game fog (regardless of the current weather), it can make you go for example from this to this, useful if you suddenly need a foggy weather (works indoors too).

- There are many codes to change the current weather, but honestly I find this and this to be more pratical.

- You can use this and this as light sources, use the tcl command and then drop them from the inventory to make light sources in pretty much any place.

And I think that's it xD I'm not remembering any extra screenshooting tips now.

I really wish this came in a DMRA GUT version

 

 

Unfortunately I only support ZKEC and it's variations.

You can either ask samhain6 to convert it to DMRA GUTS (he has done tons of conversions for that body), or you could try your luck with Gerra's Clothing Converter, if you want to try the converter follow these steps for the best possible results (this outfit was not fitted to a body that actually exists):

- Open the outfit in Nifskope, delete everything above the midriff (not included) and save as "lower.nif", now close it.

- Open the full outfit in Nifskope again, but this time delete everything bellow the midriff (included) and save as "upper.nif".

- Now you'll need to generate two different lattices for "lower.nif" and "upper.nif".

- For the "lower.nif" make a lattice from the ZKEC Queen lower body to the DMRA Guts lower body.

- For the "upper.nif" make a lattice from the Manga (the regular one) upper body to the DMRA Guts upper body.

- Once both lattices are generated, run the converter for the lower.nif and upper.nif with the matching lattices (you have two different lattices therefore you need to run the converter twice).

- If the results are satisfactory, merge both nifs into just one again.

Yup, that's me xD

 

I salute you!

 

Thanks

 

 

 

...Darigaz? I made the connection thanks to a link posted by AnnaFly.

 

 

Yup, that's me xD

 

 

 

 

Sorry.

 

Do you have a download for the FF race with the custom texture? Would love to use for a companion.

 

Are there any other mods you use for Graphics, Textures, and stuff like that to create that image?

 

Thanks.

 

 

FF Race, the custom textures are private for now (they're incomplete + there are some permission issues).

Textures: I only use QTP III R, everything else that isn't affected by this replacer has vanilla textures

Graphics: This is a bit tricky, since I use a lot of stuff from Screenffects to console commands, light gems to even a bit of image editing, sometimes I just disable everything and crank up my own ENB (and enjoy the suffering my old GPU goes trough), obviously this is only for screenshooting, when I'm playing the game I play it with "normal" graphics. If you have a decent computer all you need is OR + a ENB (recommend this one) and you can achieve a much better look without all that hassle.

What race is the first character? Also other mods you use?

 

The first character's race is the FF race, but with Custom textures.

As for your second question, you'll have to be a little more specific...

 

Nameless character.
