New to Modding, but how do you get different replacements to instead be concurrent?

[maesterolorin]

Let me start by, again I've yet to do anything, I am utterly new. I am try do learn what I need to learn.

There are three types I would like to do get working. First, when when different types of same thing have different versions I would like to get them to populate as variety for example the family world of bikini armor has several variations which you chose from, and it would be more interesting if they were mix up; may be they need to be attached to the type of npc or faction? Second, there different body mods some armor mods require one or the other, is there anyway to get body to switch to what ever the armor needs? Third, is there a way to get NPC to have randomized or individual body types and modifications?

paragraphs were hard to disguish so I added a break, hopefully it will be clearer to read.

For Skyrim, there are SPID and Base Object Swapper that can do a lot of the replacements you want.  Takes a bit of learning, and some pretty tedious .ini edits for SPID, if I recall.  There are definitely one or two mods to randomly assign body types, but you are asking for problems if you want to have CBBE and BHUNP present in the same game.  Better to stick with one body type, and just install different body presets for that one type, I think.

Autobody AE ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/61321 ) is a base mod for randomization, and there is 69 Beauties ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/69236 ) that has some body presets installed with it.  I am sure that there are other choices, these are just two that I had planned on checking out, but seemed like too much work, especially after the last few Beth updates.

Check out the discussions on their mod pages.
