Custom race NPC Companion

[Malcom86]

Sorry, i know probably will be more topics on that. But I just need some clarification.

 

I read I need Wrye Bash to convert the custom race .esp (in my case is Abriael Human Revamped: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25524) in an .esm. Than I have to open CS and create my companion with Oblivion.esm, CM partner.esp and CM partner.esm, and the Abriael Race.esm selected. When I save, I should have an .esm file (why ?? Don't I should have an .esp like everytime ??). Than I should use Wrye Bash to convert my companion .esm in an .esp ....

 

Is it right ? There's nothing I can do to simplify the process ? I already have the .esp, of course, of Abriael race and meshes and textures from the .zip I downloaded.

 

I wish to ask before because I had yet trouble creating a mod with custom races...

Thanks in advice !!!!

If your not making them to share just be lazy and directly add em to your race esp. Doesn't require bash that way.

Thanks for reply !!!!

 

Let me understand well: so, if I set the Abriael race .esp as active plugin in CS I can create my companion directly modifing the race esp ? And this will not conflict anything ?

Yes, but make sure to check oblivion and cm partners esm also. I also check cm partners esp, but I don't know if that's needed, just being on the safe side. Duplicate a cm based NPC, to avoid having to add in the factions and stuff that the script requires.

 

I got over a dozen partners through an esp and have no complications.
