Player body shape editing template

Contains everything you need to edit the current player character's body type (redistribution allowed). Please read the instructions carefully.

Player body shape editing template

🎯 Module function

This mod provides all the tools needed to edit the player character's physical form (excluding content that cannot be redistributed, such as Ken29's RDR2 scripting templates/environment and Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition).

💡 What is "expression"?

"Expressions" are numerical values ​​associated with specific body parts in the character model .ymt file, and they tell the game model how it should appear and behave in the game world. This is exactly how the visual effects of the game's weight system work!

✨ Use effect

You can change the physical form of Arthur Morgan and John Marston however you like by following the instructions provided and editing the values ​​as needed. Please note: this does not prevent weight changes, but always forces a specific expression value, so Arthur and John can still gain or lose weight normally.

🔧 Compatibility Notes

The current version prioritizes compatibility with other mods over maximum customizability, and therefore will not attempt to change editable expressions for any character other than the current player character.

⚠️ **IMPORTANT NOTE**: Since some of the costumes in WhyEm's DLC, Eastern's Epic Extras, Gonpachiro's Fancy Atelier, and Red Dead Offline are not custom-made for Arthur and John, edited expressions may look inconsistent across items, or may not apply to custom items at all.

🎮 Usage suggestions

• When switching between Arthur and John, it is recommended to switch to the Muscular Morgan and Jacked John modules at the same time
• Choose your outfit carefully
• A separate version under development will fix some compatibility issues in the future

🔍 Expression exploration

While many expressions exist, the modding community only knows what some of them actually do (see the included master expression list file for details). We'd be grateful if you could help discover what the unknown expression does - just increase and decrease the values ​​marked "???" until you can determine where they change.
