[LE] Change NPC appereance

[AlimAge]

Hi all! It’s such a thing that I have the RSChildren mod installed and for my mod I created a child NPC. The problem is that the mod RSChildren replaces standard children with some scary ones, so I would like to use the appearance of another child from the same mod, but I don’t understand how to do this. Can anyone give me a hint?

I tried NPC Visual Transfer -

it didn’t help, and I also tried to create a FaceGeom using Ctrl + F4 in the Creation kit and then replace the .nif file that created, but as I understand it, it doesn’t work that way

use nifskope or outfit studio to preview heads from this mod
then simply replace nif head you don't like with nif you like, no ck even needed in this case

Yes, I used NifScope to select the head I want, but the problem is that I don’t know how to replace the head of my NPC with it. I don't understand how to replace nif head, because my npc simply doesn't have its own file with nif head. And if I create it myself via CK via Ctrl + F4, then replacing it does not affect anything.

Do the usual replace a NPC procedure, there extra special in doing this, that will also teach you how to use nifskope, since you will need to merge some heads. Find a guide on Special Edition for merging heads with nifskope, do not cheat with nifmerge, your only cheating yourself. FYI there is 100,000 - 500, 0000 plus NPC mods on the nexus, it not that hard. Don't let it bet you :laugh:

 

If it is your first replacer, do not try to do it plugless, make a plugin (esp), work up to plugless has your nifskope skill improve.

I'm talking about the fact that my NPC does not accept nif files from his head. Whether they exist or not makes no difference.

I used the exported head of my NPC and replaced it with the head of another NPC and everything works, but as soon as I do the opposite, nothing happens.

Nifscope and combining heads will not help me,

if the NPC does not accept nif files

I replaced the texture this way, but the shape of the head does not want to change
