chocolate elf help

[Loup Garoo]

I'm pretty incompetent when it comes to mods, and this is the first time I've tried any with Oblivion (in fact, today is the first time I've installed the game on the pc).

 

I wanted to use the Chocolate Elf mod, and followed the instructions the best I could. Everything seems to be working correctly, except that the character I created is not nude. I suspect that the body replacer I'm using---HGEC EyeCandy--isn't loading, but I really don't know.

 

I installed the chocolate mod, the corean mod, the hgec, and one that allows you to start the "tutorial" with a new race. I also have the mod manager.

 

I'd be very grateful to anybody who can give "idiot guide" type instructions.

You probably didn´t install HGEC correctly or you installed the underwear version instead of the nude one. Try doing this:

 

1-Extract the HGEC Body zip file to a place of your choosing on your computer.

 

2-Open the folder you extracted(HGECBody_v1dot21) there should be a folder inside it named screenshots. Check out the screenshots to decide which body type or combination you want.

 

3-Now go to the Nude folder to get the body type you want. Basically you have to choose 2 files that will replace the games original ones, the femaleupperbody.nif and the femalelowerbody.nif. Explore the folders and compare the names on the screenshots to the names of the folders to know which body parts you want*.Once you´ve selected copy the femaleupperbody.nif and the femalelowerbody.nif to your Oblivion\Data\Meshes\Characters\_Male folder(if you don´t have this folder you have to create it)

 

4-Now go to the folder named common inside the HGECBody_v1dot21 folder you extracted, inside that folder are 3 other folders, copy the one named textures to your oblivion data folder (something like C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data if you installed to the default location).

 

5-In the feet folder copy the folder named meshes to the location mentioned above and in the Hands folder open whatever folder matches your body choice(normal or fighter) and copy the meshes folder inside it to your oblivion data folder.

 

*the lower body parts aren´t named in the screenshots but it goes like this S-small hips M-Medium Hips L-Large Hips LL-Very large Hips

 

And thats it :)

Hope it solves your problem.

And make sure to get clothes/armor replacers.

 

- Clothing and Armor replacer for Exnem EyeCandy (Old, but some people may still prefer it)

- EVE: HGEC EyeCandy Variants Expansion (Does not cover all body types, though)
