Giving a Custom CM partner a Saved Game face?

[SiniVII]

I heard you could use Wrye Bash to give your custom CM partners a saved game face from one of your own characters, but I am not quite sure how to do that and reading through the CM partners guide on how to make custom CM partners doesn't give me a hint to it. I know how to make custom CM partners, but I need to know how I can give them a saved face to look better so I don't have to start over from scratch (Which is just tiring).

Alright, the process is a bit odd.

 

First, you need a blank ESM file. You can technically use any ESM file, but a blank one is safest. You can find a blank ESM in your Oblivion/Mopy/extras folder.

 

Then you'll need your save file.

 

Go to the blank ESM you made, right click it (in Wyre Bash), and select "Import Face"

 

Select your save file. A window will pop up telling you a name that the face was imported under.

 

Now, open that ESM in TESCS, and look for the NPC by the name of what was in the box from earlier.

 

Go to to the "Face Advanced" tab, and hit the copy button. Then, go to your CM partner and select "Paste" under the face advanced tab.

 

It should be the same face. Mind you, it might be a bit odd if you're changing races and what-not, but it works.
