So as the title suggests, I'm trying to mod shale into a dwarf just because I think it'd be interesting, and I got their appearance to change by editing the .utc file, however when I load into the game it's still identifying shale as a golem on the character screen and will only let me equip crystals on them. I've tried console commanding them to a warrior class but that didn't have any effect. If y'all got any suggestions I'd appreciate it

The only mod I have installed in my game is TTW, and before I had installed it I had no issues with talking to the CIU. I'm hesitant to remove TTW for the sake of one crash because FNV is way more stable than FO3, however if I'm not able to solve this issue I may just do it. Anyone know if there's a fix? I've tried looking stuff up but I'm not seeing any real discussion about it.
