Need help making my custom armor NOT invisible

[roanackostolomac69]

So I've built a new armor with it's own stats and abilities, but it's invisible.

I just want it to use the already existing armor asset from the game.

Only the head of the character wearing it is there, nothing else

 

I tried adding this to the mod

 

[XComGame.X2BodyPartTemplateManager]

 

+BodyPartTemplateConfig=(PartType="Torso", TemplateName="MYARMOR", ArchetypeName="GameUnit_Civilian.ARC_MaleCivilianShantyA", Gender=eGender_Male, bVeteran=false, ArmorTemplate="MYARMOR", CharacterTemplate="Soldier")

 

But it didn't work.

 

Do I actually need to take some assets from the edit and put it in my content folder of the mod?

And if so how?

 

Been at this for a few days, hopefully someone can help me out I'm very new to this.

There is one mod at steam workshop which says it has added custom armor:

There are a lot of other mods that add armor, but the above one says it is different somehow. I haven't installed any of them to look personally, but if you download one or two of them and look at all their files, you can probably understand what they did.

I'll look over some of these, but just doing that won't give me the skill to do it myself, as I am very new to this.

 

The first mod you linked, which is literally what I'm trying to do with mines, has the same issue as me.

You can even see on the pictures that his custom armors are invisible.

 

EDIT: Tried to use those mods for my own use but no luck. Still invisible.
