Issues this mod attempts to resolve:
1. TSM helmets cannot fully cover the head features of the model.
2. TSM clothing cannot fully cover the chest of the model.
3. The Animated Barotrauma mod includes both male and female models, but due to differences in height, male characters may experience floating when wearing certain outfits.
4. Potential neck gap issues.
Current Effects:
1. Characters will now tie up their hair when wearing helmets, ensuring full scalp coverage for a more unified and professional appearance.
2. Both male and female models can now have full-body outfit coverage without altering their height, eliminating floating issues while maintaining a natural appearance.
3. Character neck gaps are eliminated.
Compatibility is primarily achieved by overlaying body-part layers wherever possible. Only when absolutely necessary will body parts be hidden directly—though this may result in a visually odd look. All helmets conceal hair, while most hats do not. I have tried to position hats above the character's hairline to minimize visual clipping. Compatibility adjustments have also been applied to certain NPC outfits from TSM.
Due to the height differences between models, I had to directly modify the textures. As a result, the mod contains a large number of image files, with separate outfits for both male and female characters—this inevitably leads to a larger file size, which is somewhat unavoidable.
