Guide to porting mods into SE

[saurusmaximus]

Has anyone made a tutorial on this yet? Googling hasn't given me much of anything helpful. I tried importing a custom follower mod I have into the new CK, saving it, and trying it in the game. But all I get is a frozen Skyrim whenever I go into the cell she is in.

 

 

Obviously, there is more to it than just a simple load-and-save. I'm guessing I'm going to have do something with Nifskope as well?

 

I've tried a couple other mods that have .bsa's attached, and running those through the ck didn't work either. Arthmoor wrote a post that suggested that was all that was needed, but didn't go into detail, and I'm clearly missing something.

 

Thanks in advance for any help

Found this post. Though I'm still having issues...Why is nothing ever easy? :wallbash:

You might try extracting the bsa first. I use bsaopt for that. If the follower is crashing the game it probably is using a custom skeleton. My problem is that all of my custom Racemenu facegens are all broken - the eyes, mouth, brows, and in some cases hair, are all invisible. So yeah, I'm kinda f'cked at the moment.

I found this post, which (I think) has the answer; trouble is, I know next to nothing about Nifskope, so I'm kinda dead in the water until I figure it out. I'm going to start reading up tomorrow (something for me to do if I get bored at work :devil: )
