First—all conceivable props to cyberblutch, who brought us the high-resolution models. With Rebirth and SHTUP, what can't we do?

But cyberblutch's cyborg midwife was strangely ... attractive. For those who prefer to be repulsed by those who are trying to kill them, I've modified that ... one part of cyberblutch's high-res skin to have more the effect of the original midwife skin. Perfect for avoiding those awkward moments when a stranger walks by!

Good work.

However this problem (if ye can call tit tat) was solved several times already:
A fixed midwife that uses the new mesh with a refitted (by ZylonBane) original texture is part of the (http://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=8.0) complemented version of Rebirth. This is probably what most people use today.
A (http://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=79.0) modified version of Cyberblutch's texture, similar to yours also exists.
And an (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=125644) all around new and better midwife was created by Eldron and will be released soon.

Hi NV! :D

Thanks. And as I see it, this fills a niche between the other versions already released:

· Eldron's clearly doesn't into the same category of non-nudity, though it certainly isn't attractive as cyberblutch's originally was.
· ZylonBane's texture recreates the original, more horrific (see the face in particular) look of System Shock 2.
· The other alternate texture is more flesh and less cybernetic, except in the face—and I particularly like cyberblutch's face as it was released.

So I'm releasing this to fill a gap: mostly cybernetic, System Shock 2-style body (based on cyberblutch's interpretation of the cybernetics) while using cyberblutch's original face. I like to think it does that well. So thanks for the compliment!

Fair enough. Would you mind if I put it up in the mod-forum of systemshock.org then?
Do you plan on doing some more texture work? For example (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=133492) RocketMan currently has a weapon that needs a good texture.

I'd be honored. And rather than elaborating I'll simply quote the readme:

In my mind, community work belongs to the community. I couldn't begin to lay claim to anything I add, or will ever add, to it.

As for additional texturing work, I'm afraid I can't profess to any more skill than it took to transplant elements already in cyberblutch's skin to new locations and blend them together to build a new half, reflective though not identical, to the front torso. But I'm flattered.
