custom NPCs tails

[KidFoxxx]

Hi friends,

 

I'm working on tail attachments for Argonians/Khajiit by creating tail slot armor...

They work fine on the player, but they dont show on NPCs.

 

Do I have to add some kind of script or something?

My custom cuirasses, ears etc. all work fine - only the tails trouble me.

 

Maybe some of you guys know the answer. :blink:

are you sure that the NPC has the item in his inventory, and has nothing better that uses the tail slot??

because NPCs always use the best items they have, so if it's not the best, the NPC won't use it

 

hope this helps :thumbsup:

NPCs won't equip tail slot items ever. IIRC, some Japanese modder made a mod to set force equip, but if you set too many NPCs equip tail slot item, the game can crash.

@LFact

 

Thanks milady, I didnt know that either... :thumbsup:

I guess I give the Japanese a try.

 

I also found out, that you actually can equip NPCs with tail slot armor, but only if it's a combined armor covering more than one slot. If your armor mesh consists of both upperbody and tail (using both slots) it works.
