CasparDark Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 So i started making my follower, it's my first mod. I made the bare bones version and i thought it was time for custom improvements of the character. I wanted to add a piece of headgear from another mod. I loaded the data and equipped it, it worked fine. But now i have to load the mod with the headgear and my own mod both when working in CK and when playing the game. I wanted to know if i could potentially add the armor from the mod to my character, without keeping the full mod, and if this is a complicated process.

Novem99 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 No it's not if you have experience with the CK. You just have to "copy" the record of the headgear to the .esp of your follower mod. Of course you need to add everything that is assigned to this record (meshes & textures) as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really familiar, i know the basics but not nearly enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novem99 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I'm sure there are tutorials for that since there are tutorials for almost anything. You have to look for yourself. If you don't find any come back here and we will go through this step by step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still there is a problem, my follower ingame can equip the armor but, i cannot see it on him when he equips it. He has the item on him, the item has the model in the inventory menu, but it doesn't show up. Do you have any idea why this is. Is this related to the meshes and textures thing you said above.

Novem99 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Sounds to me like you didn't copy the ArmorAddon record. Do you know what that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novem99 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) The ArmorAddon record is necessary for the armor to show up on characters. You can find it in the Creation Kit just above "Armor". Open up the actual armor record to see what ArmorAddon record is linked to the armor itself. http://fs5.directupload.net/images/170710/ft5owk7g.jpg If you click on (in this case) BladesCuirassAA the ArmorAddon record will open: http://fs5.directupload.net/images/170710/49nil6w9.jpg You have to copy this record (and all other armor parts as well) also. Otherwise the armor won't show up properly. Edited July 10, 2017 by Novem99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
