Need help with standalone armor

Hey I'm trying to work on making standalone armors for one of my mods. I can't figure out the right way of changing the texture of the armor. I'm not talking about a retexture, I mean a whole new piece of clothing referencing a whole new texture. Already having the new texture in the correct location, I've extracted the original material file and gone in with Notepad++ and changed the _d.dds text string to match the filename of the new texture I want to use. Copied the armor addon in Fo4Edit and made a new material swap. Set up the material swap to use the new texture in place of the old one. Used that swap on the new armor addon and changed the new armor to use the new addon. At that point I feel everything is set up to have the new texture be on the armor. I go into the game, give myself the armor, but when I put it on I crash. I'm not sure what I didn't do but should have, did do but shouldn't have, or used the wrong program to change something. Any help to find out what I need to do or where I can find out would be very appreciated.

OMG OMG OMG. NVM I FIGURED IT OUT

 

[Edit] Well.... I HAD it figured out. Now it's doing what it was doing before. I did a bad and didnt copy the working files and instead renamed and edited them....

 

[Edit]Ok I got it figured out again xD

 

[Edit] This is dumb..... I didn't change anything to the files that worked but it decides to crash again.
