Question about the Ainmhi Race Mod

[DarkImpulse]

Hello,

 

I'm still very much a newbie to all this so please bear with me. I think I have gotten the hang of things so far though, and currently I have begun a game with a Mystic Elf from Ren's Beauty Pack and Exnem's Body Replacers. It took a bit of effort to get everything working (especially installing the overwhelming number of addons/updates to Exnem's base models) but everything looks and works great so far.

 

Then I browsed a couple pages of mods and the screenshots of someone's Ainmhi captivated me -- I must have it! So I grabbed the Ainmhi mod installation files. Problem is it comes with its own package of Ren's Beauty Pack, which I already have. Last time I tried to swap out a mod/plugin that I was using, the saved game refused to load. (Specifically, I merged 3 esps together, but one of them wouldn't work, so I redid it, but only merging 2 esps this time around and enabling the third separately. They were the same 3 plugins, essentially, but the saved game refused to load and would crash me to desktop, and I had to make a new game.) If possible I'd like to keep my current saved game as I'm quite satisfied with it, but would like to add the Ainmhi race (and possible make a companion with it) somehow.

 

Is there a way to achieve this? I'm sorry if I'm not entirely clear, I'm not sure what details to give. If any more information is needed, feel free to ask.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

EDIT:

Somewhat unrelated, but are there any bad side effects to changing my character's face via the console command on a saved game? I'm quite terrible at this face making business, and I began the game with the default face. I'd like to try and see if I can make it any better, but I'm not sure what effect it'll have on my current game.

Okay, well I tried to install it and it seems to have gone well.

Nothing has blown up yet and I can create a new character as an Ainmhi correctly.

 

Problem I'm running into now is when I try to make a Companion with it. (I know, newbie with <1 week experience with Oblivion trying out the TES CS.. not a good mix.) I kept getting errors with it not finding Tail bones or something, but some hefty Googling revealed that I needed to extract some skeletonbeast.nif file from the Oblivion BSA. I did that and now the CS renders it without any errors. I made an NPC (with no real options, I just want to see her walking around for now) and dropped her into the ICMarketDistrict and saved it as a separate esp. I enabled that and loaded the game fine, but when I try to go into the Markets, Oblivion crashes.. I'm not exactly sure why.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

I'm also running into this problem where when I try to full view my Ainmhi race companion it comes up with and error that says Bip01 Tail01 and characters/Nequam/ainmhi/tail.nif is missing or not found or something... and when I go to where I placed my NPC the game crashes... btw I'm using the CM_Partners, and Ainmhi-RenBeautyPackFull mods.

 

Please help! :unsure:
