NOTES:​

Spoiler: v1.1 CHANGES

v1.1 Changes:
―⌧ Tweaks have been made to the following Sliders:

- African American (x3)​

- Caucasian (x4)​

- Face Male (x4)​

- Face Age (x4)​

- Body Female (Neg Values Increased)​

- Body Muscularity (Neg Values Increased)​

- Skin Male (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Skin Female (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Skin Muscle (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Skin Skinny (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Skin Fat (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Skin Age (Neg Values enabled below 25)​

- Iris Size (x4)​

- Eyes Size (x4)​

- Temple Height (x3)​

- Cheekbones Height (x2)​

​

If you are upgrading from v1.0 and are using the same character, you may need to readjust values for these sliders.​

―⌧ Some Menus, Categories and Sliders have been renamed for easier navigation.

―⌧ "Build" and "Age" Preset Menus have been disabled, as those Presets no longer do anything.

―⌧ A Hairstyle used for a Coma Awakening Preset which would crash the game when used with Vanilla has been fixed. (Also available in v1.0.1.)

Sliders:
―⌧ Sliders in the "SKIN/FAT-BONES" menu (formerly the "BODY" menu) no longer affect the morph in any way. The "FatBones" slider (previously "Fatness") will still adjust limb angles.

―⌧ The default value for the new Body and Skin sliders is "25". Going below "25" uses negative values, producing previously impossible results! However, clipping with some clothing items may occur.

―⌧ Underwear no longer automatically applies, and the chest censor now applies to Male characters. This is due to the removal of the Vanilla "Body Style" (Gender) Slider. This is preferable to having bras automatically applied to Male characters.

―⌧ Forehead sliders can now be found in the "Brow" menu.

Presets:
―⌧ "Build" and "Age" Preset Menus have been disabled. This is due to the Vanilla "BODY" menu (now called "SKIN/FAT-BONES") sliders being disabled.

Compatibility:
―⌧ Compatibility versions of the "pcr01.lua" file are available. The default version in the "1. Essential Files" folder is for GotR only. Other versions for Vanilla, SuperUI and M2M are also available in the "2. Compatibility Files" folder.

Potential Issues:
―⌧ Based on my testing, there should be no issues relating to incompatibility with save files. The same save file should work before and after installing/uninstalling this mod (aside from the character looking different).

―⌧ If your character begins to display weird shadows on their skin after excessive morphing, saving and reloading will fix the issue. This is a Vanilla bug (even present on console versions). (Example image: .)

Just as I was Creating a new character to share with you all, we get another goated mod by the man himself, legendary work.

Epic work, man! Great job

Sorry, I was trying to install this mod, and I appear to have botched it beyond my understanding. Certain features seem to work, but the body modification tab currently appears this way ↓ as well as the independent eyebrow color option not seeming to work.

Is there anything you would be able to do in helping me figure out what I did wrong? I tried installing it with Juiced and got this result, and then the same with GOTR. At the moment, I believe I only have this mod + M2M (With Privacy Policy), Refabricated, and Cutscene Patch, and all of those were installed with Juiced.

Thank you for your time and the awesome mod.

Hi, GumHead. It looks like you're using the wrong "pcr01.lua". There are versions of this file included in M2M. (All they do is reenable the "Eye Color" Menu.) Don't use those. Use the relevant compatible "pcr01.lua" from Humanistic Sliders 2.

-If you're using the Juiced "mods" folder system; Make sure Humanistic Sliders 2 is listed above M2M in your loose.txt.
-If you're using the GotR Patch Builder; Install M2M before installing Humanistic Sliders 2.

INSTALLATION: (The process is identical for the CGallery version.)
1. Download "HSEvo x CHeight Compat Patch v1.0.zip", and place it in the "Humanistic Sliders Evolution" mod folder. (Not your installation folder.)
2. Extract "HSEvo x CHeight Compat Patch v1.0.zip". All files will go where they need to go. You will find them in the "2. Compatibility Files" folder.

Thank you for the help, your mods are great, character customization's never been better.

Hi Seabound, I'm planning on using this mod with SuperUI and M2M, both of which I have installed with Juiced, however I'm not using GotR and I noticed that the only compatibility patch which includes SuperUI + M2M also uses GotR, and there isn't a Vanilla variant. Would either the Vanilla only compat patch or the GotR+SuperUI+M2M patch be safe to use, or do I just need to compromise and cut SuperUI + M2M from my install entirely if I want to stay more Vanilla or install GotR if I want to use the two with this mod? Thanks, and apologies if that was weirdly worded or confusing!

I ended up comparing the compatibility pcr01.lua files on KDiff3 for Linux and found what seemed to be the only differences, and made a new compat file which seems to have solved the issue! I've attached it here for anyone who wants it. I'm also fine with you including it with the mod's base compat files if you so desire. Thanks for the great mods!

Also for anyone else who's installed SuperUI through Juiced like I did and wishes to use this compat file properly, make sure to have SuperUI listed below M2M (which itself should be below Humanistic Sliders 2) in the loose.txt file or else it won't work properly.

Hi, BellaRoka.
The only thing GotR's pcr01.lua does differently from Vanilla, is disable the Eye Color menu in the Plastic Surgeon.
The only thing M2M's pcr01.lua does is reenable the Eye Color menu (similar to Vanilla).

So even if you're not using GotR, I would recommend using the "GotR + SuperUI + M2M" pcr01.lua.
I'll make a note to address this when I look into updating this mod.
(Btw; Your wording made perfect sense!)

Whoops, I only just saw this after editing my previous post! I ended up fixing it on my own after looking into how little difference there was between the Vanilla and GotR pcr01.lua's, and edited my above message to include the merged file for Vanilla + SuperUI + M2M. As you said, it was a pretty minor fix. Please feel free to include the merged patch I made in future releases if you wish, and thanks for the response!
(Glad to hear my wording made sense!)
