Btw we now have a brand new 3BBB Discord Server

This is a step by step Guide on how to get my 3BBB Conversions up and running.
Follow these steps precisely in order and you will be granted success.

  • Open Vortex and go to the mods tab
  • Drag and drop the downloaded f4se_x_xx_xx.7z file into the box on the bottom
  • Install and enable F4SE in the mods tab then let it Deploy
  • U can do it. I belive in u ^v^
  • Open the Fallout 4 game folder via Open > Open Game Folder
  • You should see a file called f4se_loader.exe if no something is wrong
  • Create a shortcut to f4se_loader.exe and drag that shortcut to your desktop for easy access.

  • Let it Overwrite (load after the Clothing mod)
  • Let it Deploy


Batch Building
  • Open Bodyslide via Vortex in the Overview tab next to the Fallout 4 Image 
  • Or under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\Tools\Bodyslide\BodySlide x64.exe
  • In Bodyslide go to the top left corner and select either Alcater Preset - Model or Alcater Preset - Thic
  • Check Build Morphs in the bottom left corner
  • Click Batch-Build
  • A Window will then pop up - click create
  • Then a moment later a new window will pop up - if in the first Output-set you see CBBE Body and a few others then choose CBBE 3BBB Body
  • Then click OK and Wait till it is done processing


Now you are set up correctly!
  • Celebrate ^O^
  • Endorse
  • Share


Troubleshooting Q&A

Generally every step of the guide is necessary and important.
But there are some issues that often have to do with specific parts of the installation guide. 
In red are some of the most common mistakes made during and after the installation.


Q: The Body is stretched - Breast and parts of Butt and Legs are fixed in the air
A: Check if you did these as shown
  • Skeletal Adjustments (Mistake: I did not install it)

Q: The Body has no Physics
A: Check if you did these as shown
  • F4SE (Mistake: I did not use my F4SE Shortcut to start Fallout 4)
  • OCBP (Mistake: I did not install it as shown)
  • Alcater Preset (Mistake: I did not select the Alcater OCBP Config and let it overwrite 3BBB and OCBP)
  • Batch Building (Mistake: I did not batch build and or i have not selected the CBBE 3BBB Body and or waited till it was done processing)

Q: The Body has Physics but the Clothes have not
A: Check if you did these as shown
  • Alcater Preset (Mistake: I did not select the Alcater OCBP Config)
  • Clothing mod - 3BBB Conversion (Mistake: I did not let it overwrite e.g. load after the original clothing mod)
  • Batch Building (Mistake: I did not batch build everything)



Note for MO2 + GOG users

If you are using MO2 and the GOG Fallout 4 GOTY Version and did everything according to the Guide and it is still not working here is what to do:
lovetoflyguy informed me about this solution he found in a forum post and suggested i add it to the 3BBB Guide so i did.
> The issue is GOG's DRM-free model which conflicts with MO2's VFS, which prevents certain files from loading properly.
The solution is to edit the f4se launcher in MO2 and add the argument "-forcesteamloader". It's that simple.

> It will also probably fix a variety of "mod-X doesn't load in MO2" complaints.

> I just want everyone like me who has struggled with this to be able to find this simple fix quickly and easily, and I figured this is the best place for that.

    Alright, for those who want Physics with CBBE, using BodytalkV3 and skeletal adjustments all at the same time, follow this order list.
    (Fallout 4 GOTY Edition last update 1.10.163)

    CBBE  2.6.3
    (Female Textures)
    BodySlides Studio 5.6.3  Outfit/Body: CBBE Body / CBBECurvy (TheOneYouWant) , filter: CBBE Bodies , CBBE vanilla outfits, mark Build morphs and Built the body, then click on Batch build and select the vanilla outfits only, DO NOT select the bodies or other stuff, in the case you want nude version, make sure to not mark one called "Not Nude".
    MaleTextures (Optional)
    OCBP  2.2.5 for CBBE (Do not edit the ini file in this one)
    Discrete Female Skeleton DFS 1.1.1
    DFS 1stPerson Skeleton with FO4HHS
    Skeletal Adjustments 3.0 (select DFS option and its up to you if you choose knees and other adjustments it wont affect the physics)
    Zex-Zaz Extended Skeleton 6.0 
    BodyTalkV3  (BT3-May2023)  I didn't chose any of those textures since I already have others, I selected nude only. 
    MTM "for CBBE" OCBP / OCBPC  2.02  (Second option) (Install CBBE with Spheres option enabled)
    ............................
    Note: If you are installing the 3BBB mods, its almost the same load order but selecting the right versions for 3BBB and you can use the ini files below.
    ...........................
    Editing your ini files for MTM mod, there is a link below for replacing those files with my files, so you don't have to edit them by yourself. 
    After this, edit your OCBPCollisionConfig.txt  and remove the mark #
    Penis_01
    Penis_02
    Penis_03
    Penis_04
    Penis_05

    [Penis_01]
    0,0,0,2.5
    [Penis_02]
    0,0,0,2
    [Penis_03]
    0,0,0,2
    [Penis_04]
    0,0,0,2
    [Penis_05]
    0,0,0,2.5

    In the file ocbp.ini  make sure its like this 

    [General]
    playerOnly=0
    npcOnly=0
    detectArmor=1
    armorIgnore=
    useWhitelist=1
    femaleOnly=0
    maleOnly=0

    remove the  ";"  for 
    [Attach]  and  [Attach.A] 
    Penis_Balls_CBP_01=Balls
    Penis_Balls_CBP_02=Balls

    [Whitelist]
    Penis_Balls_CBP_01=HumanRace:male
    Penis_Balls_CBP_02=HumanRace:male

    It should be like this, or you can replace those 2 ini files with mine.

    i got it working with the physics but some outfits it will just clip through the shorts or tanktop its mainly with the clothing of vtaw wardrobe 1 not every clothing piece but mainly with the pants and the tanktops could be because of me setting the 7b sliders a bit up

    This did not work for me and I have gotten no further than how far I got on my own.

    "Q: The Body is stretched - Breast and parts of Butt and Legs are fixed in the air
    A: Check if you did these as shown

    • Skeletal Adjustments (Mistake: I did not install it)" 

    This is my problem and this is not the solution. I even down patched my game and installed a new body.

    So when i downloaded this Vortex prompted me to delete like 200 files from CBBE. idk if that is the mod "overwriting" the files or not but i thought it would overwrite files in Bodyslide not CBBE. i just chose the 2nd option "revert files" so that it wouldnt brick my characters body or something. if anyone has any information on this that would be amazing. thanks.
