Myst42 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Hello everyoneIve been installing this game for weeks and i was almost done with all the necessary mods i wanted until ran into a very tricky one: Looking for a hairstyle i downloaded SKS Rens and i got two compressed packages but neither of them works -The first one comes with 20 hairstyles with meshes in .egm and .nif format, and thextures in .dds format BUT just moving them to data file doesnt work (im guessing its because of the lack of a .esp file in data folder) -The second one says something about 117 merged with SKS and it comes with 32 mesh files in .egm format, no textures and a .esp file but the instructions are in japanese so i dont understand if its a mod or a modders resource and much less how to install it. So the thing is how can i use the hairstyles in my characters?, do i have to create a .esp file? is it enough just creating it or do i have to do something else? is that the way or something else entirely different?... well many questions but basically how can i use them and if a have to mod something; how can i do it any ideas or advices?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WastelandAssassin Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 if the mod is found on the Nexus, there should be no problem if he is posting a linkand if the mod isn't from here, then i'm not sure he can ask for help with it so if he can't post a link, i don't think he is supposed to ask for help as welland since i don't know the exact name of the mod, i can't search for it (and if it's not here, how can i search for it??) anyhow, if you want help with getting the hairs to work, i can try and instruct you on how to make the esp file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WastelandAssassin Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 if the mod is found on the Nexus, there should be no problem if he is posting a linkIt's not on the Nexus. It's mentioned many numerous times in the Mod Detectives thread. The hairs are converted custom content from the Sims games. and if the mod isn't from here, then i'm not sure he can ask for help with itSure he can. He just basically wants to know how to add hairs to races. That's pretty generic information. so if he can't post a link, i don't think he is supposed to ask for help as wellIf in doubt, ask a moderator. and since i don't know the exact name of the mod,SKS Ren's Hairs i can't search for it (and if it's not here, how can i search for it??) Google? Dogpile? Alta Vista? Excite? Not all mods are searchable on the great Nexus, including my own mods. sorry, just not sure on the rules about requesting help with mods that aren't from here (though you do make a good point)and i did search on google, though some mods you just can't find on google (believe me, i've had my share of searching, and if i don't know the exact name, sometimes all i find is bumb results, like question threads and such)but thanks for the assistancei did search and found the mod in question, and now seeing if i can figure it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
