Making gauntlets and boots appear fully

First of all, I know that the software that I need in order to do this is Nifskope, but I don't know how to work it. Let's say that I got a new mesh for necromancer robes to make it more revealing, specifically by shortening the sleeves and skirt. However, originally, the necromancer robes covered by the top portions about gauntlets and boots in order to prevent clipping. Because now the sleeves and skirt have been shortened, but the game is still "covering" gauntlets and boots, the end result is that there are gaps on the wrists and shins when wearing certain gauntlets and boots. The way to fix this is to make the necromancer robe mesh no longer take up those slots. However, I have no idea how to do that. Could someone please walk me through it?

I think more work will be involved. But one place to start is in the ck. Check the armor addons. If the biped slots highlight the arms, unhighlight them. Do this for the armor form as well. If no go on both accounts, then in nifkope look for the nodes for skin partitions. SPB 32 Arms I think is the setting to look for. Not at my PC so I can't give you a direct path to it.

 

Same can be applied for the feet. I'm 100% sure its SPB 32 feet. I always make shoes lol.

Well, I've been looking at this http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Skyrim_bodyparts_number and based on these screenshots: http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/File:SkyrimArmourTut_23.jpg http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/File:SkyrimArmourTut_24.jpg This is exactly what I'm looking for, in terms of affecting whether or not clothing affects forearms and/or calves. However, the tutorial appears to be for a completely new armor. However, the mesh that I'm working on is for a clothing replacement and therefore currently does not have an .esp file. Does this mean that I have to create an .esp file, if I want to create a clothing replacement that has less body flags than the vanilla outfit or more body flags in the event that I want to make a Nocturnal clothes replacer that does not clip with the robe sleeves?
