WildElf Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) I would like a tutorial on how to add a race. I think many people would like that. I currently added a race but only the head appears... no body at all, head is fine though. Anyone want to help by making a tutorial? I don't even need custom art I just want a new taller race of breton. but leave the regular bretons alone.. What I did was copy and pasted the "BretonRace" changed the new races name to what I want. left every thing else the same (for now just to see if it would work) and no body. Any help is appreciated. :) There is a tutorial here for making a new race:http://www.creationkit.com/Tutorial_Creating_a_Playable_Race There is an easy step to miss (I was following this tutorial and still skipped it!). In the General Data section, under Copied Data, you need to set Morph Race to an existing race, the one you copied from most likely. Do this also for the Armor Race, unless you want to be naked all the time (I don't know if you'll encounter other errors).

jimmycalhoun Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'd like to add this tutorial to the wiki, but it doesn't look like I have permissions to. I think it would be helpful, and easily expanded on from other users in the community. http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/561372-tutorial-addingreplacing-music-with-the-creation-kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlolox Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I'm having a major problem. EVERY time I save, the CK tells me that the file is in use, so I either create a new save or over-write a different previous save. Then, NONE of the stuff I've created and saved in "newsave" (for example) appears in the game. It also doesn't appear if I load in that specific data file. The only way to get all my stuff to re-appear in the CK is if I load multiple data files of my previous saved stuff. Am I just being a *censored* or is there a way round this very frustrating problem? Thanks in advance, Kebabyuchenko xxx It's because the file is actually opened in Skyrim. Got to close your game session before you save. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeatherGrey Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Can anyone post a tutorial on merging meshes? I want to be able make textures transparent so I can mix and match armor pieces together. I've heard layering meshes can be done in nifskope alone, but I haven't found a decent guide.

Priest524 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Figured out a reasonable workflow for animations (don't know if someone shared it already, but here it is). On my private modding wiki. http://tinyurl.com/7n4k6wo I might clean this up a bit and put it in the official wiki. Thank you for your Updated Modding Posts This is everything I need :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and it took me three days to figure out that i need FOMM just to be able to see the mesh files.... I need guidance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
