any chance to get a No Cut Efficiency patch?

@The Fork with credit that's fine

Hello, I'm developing an overhaul for Kenshi, may I internally load this mod into my overhaul with credit to you? I won't be loading it as a Steam Dependency, I'll be loading it inside of my mod similar to how Genesis handles things.

누드 모드랑 어떻게 해

These are great but it really sucks that it goes in the shirt slot. I know its necessary but its just kind of annoying :\

Of course, go ahead :beeped: If you've never modded a mod from the workshop, you'll first need to find the mod in the kenshi mod workshop folder, this mod will be in the folder 881287839. You then need to create a new folder in the actual kenshi mod folder and name the folder exactly the same as the file. After that it should show up in the FCS

I wanna experiment this and see how it works if I change them to belt/backpack slot and see if I can fix it despite I'm new to FCS.

As far as I know. But as I said, I could be wrong. Since I last modded the game a lot of people more talented than me have done some pretty amazing things.. I do know that you can add 'invisible' clothes to things like the belt slot and affect different areas, but managing where exactly a texture will go outside of what the editor 'likes' is beyond me.
Kowalth 5 Jan, 2021 @ 7:46pm 
I see... It's technically impossible to have 3 layers of top amour, then.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 7:45pm 
@Rhino Without checking that mod deeply I can guess from the images that it edits the body texture to add the underwear. Either that or it makes the clothes in the armour slot. The way the tattoos work is by being a texture without a model that goes where the armour would be. This is how vanilla chainmail works. I'm guessing you can use this but the tats go over the underwear. There isn't much I can do about that unfortunately.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 7:41pm 
@Kowath - The tattoos are essentially a 'shirt' as the shirt armours in kenshi do not have a model but are actually just a texture layered on top of the body. The editor only allows you to attach armours to one spot. Adding them to the belt would confuse the location where the texture should draw. That said...it's been awhile since I actively modded Kenshi so I could be wrong.
Kowalth 5 Jan, 2021 @ 4:30pm 
Tattoos should be in the "belt" slot, as an accessory.
Chilliverse 12 Dec, 2020 @ 8:03pm 
i want to know can you make a patch for Kawaii clothes
auamoti 28 Mar, 2020 @ 4:35am 
yeah i wasted a lot of time figuring out what was messing up the nude mod
あなたのドシラク 26 Jan, 2020 @ 10:10am 
@Nanogiraffe , hi , i cant edit tatoos,just error when i want open item in FCS ,i think need update files of your mod or maybe create items again or maybe it my problem ?
Animecore 25 Jan, 2020 @ 6:48pm 
Load the 18+ body mod after this mod. It works. How many default tats are loaded on this mod though? 11? I'm using an add-on mod to this that has more tattoos, but it's not working.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 29 Nov, 2019 @ 11:07pm 
when i first uploaded. Steam didn't allow nude mods. I'm no longer modding kenshi. so if someone want's to make this nude compatible then they can just credit me :-)
veloleg 29 Nov, 2019 @ 7:04pm 
good mod...one claim or 1 make nudemod, or 2 don't change female. 1 there are still tattoo requiring nudemod. 2 there is nudemod which is bad to install after your. Sorry for bad English (Google translation)) )
WAVE波波 21 Aug, 2019 @ 7:04pm 
Can I translate it into Chinese?plz
Nanogiraffe  [author] 20 Aug, 2019 @ 3:43am 
@augustus1997 hm not sure. This mod was actually published before crossbows were added (and back when it seemed the idea had been scrapped) so I guess i just made the stat 'whatever' Does it actually affect crossbow ability?
augustus1997 19 Aug, 2019 @ 11:58am 
so, I think I met a problem here. About the effect of the tattoos. Besides the effect you described, there is also a sentences shows it will make the ability of crossbow to x0.00? is this a bug of its your mean to design it like this? thanks for the mod though, I love the tattoos so much lol
EvilNecroid 4 Aug, 2019 @ 7:28am 
@General Kazeeem i can never get that nude mod to work
Ostrava 19 Jul, 2019 @ 1:16pm 
Swamp merchants no longer sell Hash on their stores, I already disabled the mod to see if this mod caused that and it does, now they only sell fish, hemp, and the tattoo ink.
General Kazeeem 18 Jul, 2019 @ 10:33pm 
Seconding the nude female body compatibility.
Exact same issue as Mama Horseteeth when used with the "kenshi nude mod" available on nexus here https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/29
When enabled, scorchlanders will stay completely naked, but greenlanders will have the original underwear wrap texture partially applied (which covers the lady bits, unfortunately)
Zero idea how to fix this, as i'm pretty sure it's a confliction with the core of this mod (i assume the tattoos were scripted as shirts and simply have textures that appear to be tattoos on bare skin) and this mod simply edits the underwear area of the character body to allow for tattoos and such.
If the creator could fix this, that'd be awesome. No idea how much work that would be though.
MamaHorseteeth 16 Jul, 2019 @ 2:27pm 
As to the comment posted on March 13th on the subject of nude mod compatibility:
Weirdly enough, when I put my nude mod after this mod, scorchlanders stay nude but greenlanders clothe up. I do not find this ideal but do not know how to fix it and so will be postponing my exploration of this mod until a solution is found. For reference, I am using https://www.nexusmods.com/kenshi/mods/29 , except instead of following the weird instructions and replacing base game files, I packaged the files into a mod and enabled that.

I found it, it's litterally a 'medical workbench'


Nice disguise game
Deafbringer 31 May, 2019 @ 8:41am 
There is no medical crafting tab either..?
Deafbringer 31 May, 2019 @ 8:40am 
I got the same problem here, I researched it but the ink workshop is not showing up in the build menu.
TheRussianMeatClob 29 Apr, 2019 @ 11:49am 
I researched it and got ink from hivers but I'm not find anyway to build the tattoo bench. Any idea why this is happening?
Magic Nerd 8 Apr, 2019 @ 11:32pm 
what tats are on chest? i ran out of ink
Magic Nerd 8 Apr, 2019 @ 11:31pm 
the shek witch isnt on the chest no more.
The Seventh Soul 8 Apr, 2019 @ 5:00pm 
I know the Kenshi devs didn't like the idea of a magic system in the game (probably because it would break everything as is, and they'd have to redesign the game engine from scratch), but if they had to do something even somewhat magically-related, this would be the way to do it.
Mavrah 6 Apr, 2019 @ 1:51pm 
Armor and pants, yes. Tattoos fill your shirt slot.
Krav Magal 6 Apr, 2019 @ 12:41pm 
So, to be sure. If I get a tattoo, I can't wear clothes or armor?
A Slothful Sloth 2 Apr, 2019 @ 10:55am 
Nice mod, but I was wondering, is it not possible to add the tattoos as sliders to the character creation menu?
Nanogiraffe  [author] 13 Mar, 2019 @ 1:20am 
Yeah when I made this nude mods on steam were still no-no,but...if you put the nude mod AFTER this it should work! (Maybe)
CrumbleCat 12 Mar, 2019 @ 6:13pm 
So this won't work together with the nude mod? Sorry if that's a dumb question. Also, it would be so cool if bandits and the same sort of type spawned with these. With like a 20% chance.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 3 Mar, 2019 @ 3:27am 
They can be found at general traders (UC), hive traders and shinobi traders.
LuckyStriker 26 Dec, 2018 @ 9:20am 
@Nanogiraffe its a good idea for a mod but why add effects? Tattoos are just tattoos.. Is there an option to turn off the effects?
Cinto PL 1 Dec, 2018 @ 6:45pm 
There is a common bug with clothing mod and that is that it gives a Crossbow Skill effect of x0.00
essentially meaning that your character has no Crossbow Skill at all.
Just a heads up for fix.
DrakeV 20 Nov, 2018 @ 11:56pm 
thanks a tonn, went through all the hive villages and got like 9 of em. those crafty hivers.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 20 Nov, 2018 @ 10:24pm 
Hive traders are pretty high. Also set the mod at the end of your list if you're using any other mods that affect traders
DrakeV 20 Nov, 2018 @ 7:44pm 
i've gone to like 4 different shinobi theif outposts and can't find the ink, is it extremely rare find, or do the other traders have higher chance of selling it?
Nanogiraffe  [author] 4 Nov, 2018 @ 1:43am 
look in medical (as listed above) and click across.
Nanogiraffe  [author] 4 Nov, 2018 @ 1:42am 
@Animecore - It's been awhile since I've looked at this mod, but I used to put new buildings in the 'tab' function to make the build menu less messy. Try looking for the little arrows (left and right) in the UI that tell you there are varients of buildings it should (might) be in there. Let me know how you go.
Animecore 2 Nov, 2018 @ 10:05pm 
I researched this in Core on the research bench II but can't find the tattoo bench once the research was done.
santo hermenegildo 1 Jul, 2018 @ 2:46pm 
Make Baldur from God of War 4 tattoos.
Mavrah 6 May, 2018 @ 5:07am 
I'll confirm. This mod still works on the most recent major update (0.98.23).
Nanogiraffe  [author] 5 May, 2018 @ 6:12pm 
ps. the mod should still work... and link to the guide is in the mod description above. Good luck and if you need any help I'll try and answer.
