"access denied" cant delete or edit mod files

[[email protected]]

For some reason i cant seem to access or delete the files. Im trying to use the morph compiler but it keeps saying access denied. And in the game the hairs that i have downloaded are invisible, by the way I am very new to this whole modding experience, but I know the basics.

Which files can't you delete or edit? The chargenmorphfile or mesh files or mmh. files etc.?

When you can't see the hair mods you have downloaded in your CC ( character creator) then you haven't probably compiled all the chargenmorphfiles into one file. You should only have one chargenmorphfile in your override folder.

You don't need the chargenmorphcompiler . There is always the possibility to edit the chargenmorphfile by yourself. Just open the chargenmorphile with the notepad or editor ( right click on the chargenmorphfile) and copy the lines of the chargenmorphfile which comes with the mod you have downloaded and paste the lines into you already existing chargenmorpfile.

 

Open the chargenmorphfile with the notepad and you will see something like that:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<morph_config>
<heads>
Thats the section "heads": Here you will find all entries for the original presets entries.
<human_male>
.. and here are of course the presets entries only for human males.

So, now when you are scrolling down, you will find the entries for the hair. It should look like that:

<hairs>
<human_male>
<resource name="hm_har_blda_0" cut="0234"/>
<resource name="hm_har_ha1a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_ha2a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_ha3a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_hb1a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_hb2a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_hb3a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_hb4a_0" cut="1"/>
<resource name="hm_har_hc1a_0" cut="1"/>

You will find these entries for every race and gender.
Now you have just to copy the entries from the chargenmorphfile of the mod you want to use and paste it in your already existing chargenmorphfile under the correct sections.

That means, female elf hairstyle entries under the hair section for the female elves and so on.

 

You have to edit the chargenmorphfile only for using cosmetic mods like hairstyles, face textures, hair colours etc.
