Trying to add meshes to a body and replace player body with it.

[Sackettt]

Wannabe modder here, I am attempting to make a female android by placing several armour meshes together using 3d max. I've tried adding meshes to cbbe body and tried using armour as a body and adding bones to it. always with three outcomes.

1.Game crashes

2.Player body invisible

3.Body is stiff and hands and head are bobbing around separately. (added bones with 3d max to mesh and got outcome 1)

 

I know i'm a noob and have been doing my best to read up on how to fix meshes using nifskope. I have found many tutorials on how to make custom armour but nothing on changing the base body mesh. I am using unique player mod. So main questions!

Anyone know a good tutorial directly addressing how to make your own body not armour or converting armour into a body?

Is there a easier way that i'm not doing?

 

Thank you for your help.

Yeah this forum goes slow sometimes and only has 1 or 2 folks who know what they're doing. I'll have to try loverslab too.
