NPC help in the geck.

[admiralflaplak]

Umm ya, well I made a Ghoul NPC in the g.e.c.k. When I try to give him any extra head pieces like a hat of some glasses the end up on the side of his head... I get an error ,also, when I try to preview him in the editor. I think it might have to do with "ghouls can't have head items" or something.

 

any help would be much appreciated.

just curious, is the hat (in shoulder) modded in any way?

Kinda, I changed the Id and the name so that it would appear at the top of the inventory list, other then that its just the pre war hat

This may be what you need....

 

Head items use a secondary "mesh" .egm file (located in same place as the base mesh for the item) that is used to translate how they fit on a character.

 

1) Extract the other files in the item's Mesh folder.

2) While in GECK, click [Character] > [update FaceGen Model Availability] (This should fix the issue, but it very well may not, if you do not have the .egm extracted... I know it has had no help with my trying to edit a completely custom hat, but that's another issue.)

3) Search is your friend: 'Headgear Problem in geck, , Headgear Problem in geck apearing sideways on head.'

 

Hope this helps... if not, you may want to try the official forums' search engine.
