Users can install Heister Gloves by Cpone to utilize this mod fully.
Otherwise known as "Legendary Arm Adapters (LAA)", "Glove Adapters but not Shit" is a mod that overhauls the forearms in-game to work with your preferred heisters gloves.
If you're like me, the so called "Gloves" update was pretty interesting. Being able to mix and match your favorite outfit and gloves together really makes things personal for you, however also like me you probably noticed that you can't wear your favorite heister's gloves. I always liked Sangres' gloves and really wanted to wear it on every outfit that was avalible in the game, however what i got instead was this really horrible blue wrinkled gloves instead which i thought was super lazy of OVERKILL to do, so here is my contribution to the community. You can now finally wear your favorite heister's gloves on any outfit without any issues... Hopefully.
Since this mod pairs well with Heister Gloves by Cpone, let me tell you somethings that mod does and doesn't, and what this mod fixes.
-
Heister Gloves makes you able to wear your preferred heister's gloves on any outfit which is super cool and should be a basegame thing. What it doesn't do is fix some issues, most noticeably characters like Dallas or Bodhi who's gloves either doesn't reach with the wrists or clips into the wrists. This mod fixes a lot of issues by editing the wrist models in-game to work with those gloves. This extends to the Legacy Tactical, the Rough Rider and the Road Rage outfits.
-
Huge improvements to the default viewmodels, mainly fixes with clipping issues and Hila's sleeves issue which i'm shocked OVERKILL hasn't fixed yet. This also includes a fix for some heister's gloves having horrible weighting (Basically the stuff that makes models flex) such as Bodhi and Sangres. Bodhi's issue was that his weights were absolutely crushed when the Gloves Update happened, same with Sangres, i've taken the time to fix these issues. Bodhi was fixed by Columbus and Sangres' UV seam issues was fixed by Matthezlor.

Nothing else, i just wanted this to end at point three.
Due to the fragile nature of this mod, it's hugely restrictive on what mods you can use with this:
- Any mods that has it's own "fps_criminals" model cannot be used alongside this mod. Mods like Pre-199.5 First Person Sleeves or Restored Heister Sleeves will not work.
- Any mods that has it's own "hnd_forearms" model or any of the "sus_acc_fps_slaughterhouse" models cannot be used alongside this mod.
For mods i'd recommend, here's a few:
Better Sleeves & Fixes. Should reduce exposure to the wrists a bunch, not like it's a bad thing but it's more pleasing to look at.
Tailor Expansion. Absolute no-brainer. Gives you more variants for outfits.
Better Looking Tattoos for Sydney. Fixes the in-consistent skintone for Sydney, and correctly scales her tattoos.
Saints & Sinners Reboot. Another no-brainer. Objectively better looking outfit.
Extract into mod_overrides.
Huge thanks to Columbus for helping me with Bodhi's gloves weights, that lifted a huge "weight" off my back- I'm very sorry for that pun.
Another HUGER thanks to Matthelzor for fixing up Sangres' UV seams with the Normal maps, seriously you're a real G for fixing that.
Expect tiny clipping issues as this mod isn't perfect, anything major though let me know in the comments below.
