MO2 Bodyslide Output Set Up

How to set up Mod Organizer 2, BodySlide, and Outfit Studio "settings" to (output) outfit builds and batch builds.
No retargeting folders, missing textures, and manual pulling over of files every time you want to build a new outfit or batch build.

Note: I also use this fix with Skyrim AE, which works similarly for both games.

I want to give a huge "Thank You" to the user and SS2 team member Sirlach for this fix! He is the one who figured out how to do this without retargeting folders.

I am most grateful for his help and insight and for providing the actual fix.

I also want to thank Gopher and Gamer Poets for all their videos over the years. Without all their help, I might not have been able to enjoy all the modding content available from the modding community. Videos like this one are how I try to show gratitude to them and the community. Trying to help others as they helped me in enjoying all the content the modding community has chosen to share with us. 🙂

THAT FIXED IT OMG I SCEARCHED EVERYWHERE

I rarely leave comments on the 'tube - but this, my man, was so helpful I'm obliged to say thanks. May not be as polished as GamerPoets or Gopher or any other of those well-known tutorialists' videos, but in contrast to these dudes, you explained it step by step, not so fast one can barely follow, and concisely, without any fuss about "all the other great features" or what else you could do with it.

And then you even took the time to thoroughly explain the issue in a manner that even IT-Semi-Luddites like myself, who have only a very basic knowledge of the matter, can understand. I definitely appreciate your way of going about this a lot more than simply being told "do this, do that" and hope that "it just works" on my system. So thanks for sharing this. And iffen U have the time & nerve, please do a video as informative & concise as this one on generating LOD.

Cheers & Rock On!

Thanks a lot!! I just switched from Vortex to MO2 and I couldn't understand where my batch output files went after I clicked on build batch, now my problem is fixed and I also clearly understand what the overwrite function means.

Worked Like a charm! Thanks for the vid.

So: create the empty mod, use it for the BodySlide output path and then put the game data path back to what it should be (instead of the MO2 overwrite folder).
Working beautifully now, thanks so much!

Thanks for this video, I played Todd's games last time on the Fallout 4 release and then everything was very simple, now I'm too old for all this shit. Thanks again for the explanation

[davidkenyon]

I wish I could like this more than once, I had no idea there was a fix for this did it the manual way for years.

[Statvar]

[mcdordevich]

[jellybeanz]

[tesseract]

This covers 100% of what I was looking for. Thanks!

[jacobjames]

This helped so much, your explanation was amazing! Thank you!

[Mightyowlshark]

This tutorial solved a problem I've had for a while! Can't thank you enough!

[alberttrevino]

Thank you! Down and dirty straight forward common sense instructions!

[RedlinePush]

You are a legend! Now I have to figure out why my previews have no textures

[sirlach]

I always love your videos Raybo! Although I don't know how you get anything done with that background of yours! :)

[PeterB]

This Vid is typically very good when people have fullfilled your assumtions with creating this "empty mod" but if I now have done this I get a marker that says "not gulty gamefile" and so your Vid is from this point useless for me as I'm new to mo2 and don't understand what exactly to create an outputfolder for Bodyslide. And that is mostly so, when one wants to move to mo2, as you people often assume things that bloody beginners like me don't know yet and don't know where to find that info how to properly create that output file as the fundamental basis for following your tips.

good video but for the love of god zoom in

[MrThomsi]

At the moment dont see any data files at all, there is no textures for me..
