You can change the opacity of the parts you want to show and the parts you don't.
The texture has been applied to the entire geoshell, only the undesirable parts have their opacity turned down to zero.
If you want the chains smaller or bigger, change the Vertical and horizontal tiling values on all the surfaces.
Thanks to Ghastly UVs, you can use nearly any texture to create a bodysuit. Before, it would show seams where the arms and legs connect to the torso.
Known Problems:
YOu usually can't see someone's belly button through chainmail.
Finger and Toenails don't work well because they are their own surfaces and thus you get really tiny chains on those surfaces.
The neck doesn't look too good so it's opacity is turned off.
Unrestricted use as long as you don't repackage it and sell it.
