COMMENTARY
Today, Karter's Tunic!!! and the UUNP version , please 😁
Maybe you already know that I appreciate a lot Karter for all his work. He provides one of the finest content for Skyrim. Armors/ outfits mainly. And he is a great screenarcher too. He has all qualities that we can ask.
With Karter, you can admire textures and the good taste.
Karter's mods are generally 4K textures...sometimes 2K. This mod has 4K textures. I'm not disapointed. The result on the monitor is delicate and full of details.
4K for all main diffuse textures and for normal maps too (n.dds).
Materials seem true. A real pleasure!
Karter provides optional modern textures. They are 4K too.
I consider these tunics like "accessories". Indeed, they are made to be used above your actual outfit or armor.
So, they can be considered like vests too. An accessory to expand your equipement.
That's the reason why some of these tunics are transparent. This allows to create mix. Simply
For this article, I exceptionaly used trouser and boots from other mods https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/76522
Others tunic are not transparent. You can see that on certain images.
I rarely saw outfits which add this option.
Original tunics are UNP, and now they have been unified......well, they are UUNP to make it simple (I like the word "unified, that's the reason why I use it frequently")
The UUNP conversion is well done. Even tho not perfect... made by Tedii on LL.
We have some stretched textures frequently (arms and bra). The conversion is better on the lower part of tunics (waist and pelvis).
Of course, this depends of the pose.
We forget this weak point during the game and the outfit is beautiful during all animations.
The conversion and the original are naturaly larger than your actual bodyslide. Of course, you must be able to wear them above an existing equipement.
To be precise, you have 2 different sizes for these tunics:
- Some tunics are large to avoid clipping with your equipement
- Some tunics fits perfectly to your bodyshape.....if you want to be nude under the tunic.
The choice is yours.
So, we have here an original idea. The mod can find a place in your load order. Definitly.
An honorable bodyslide but some limitations to do images.
And you have amazing textures.....
An interesting experience

Sorry about the shitty conversion. I originally made it so that nezzar lingerie stuff can fit underneath without clipping issues. The bone weighting is shit since I suck at it hence possible texture stretching issues with all my conversions. You have to tell me how you make your game look so good one DAY.

Hi Tedii,
DeleteIt's ok for me :) your conversion has all the necessary content:
- it appears in the bodyslide
- 2 weights
- all sliders work
- and the original outfit is respected
You'll improve with time, like every modders. For your first bobyslides, maybe you can work on "simpler" outfits. Karter's work is exceptional (meshes and textures) and this may be risky to create a bodyslide of this cloth.
Well, it's up to you.
But I appreciate the effort you put in it.
