Help making character based on Si facegen

[isbelle]

So, I've been reading this really good tutorial, (http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/202645-creating-si-facegen-characters-tutorial/)

trying to make my own head, but since the tutorial is for Skyrim, which uses ddl files, I'm stuck trying to get the game to accept the file.

I finally managed to convert the file to a nif, but when i'm uploading it under "head" (duplicating race) in GECK my computer says "Invalid directory".

Does that mean I need to put it in the bsa file? How would I do that?

 

I'd really appreciate some help =)

meshes have to be somewhere under the data\meshes folder. If it is somewhere else it will throw that error.

Still wont work, looks like this. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for replying =) Edited March 8, 2012 by isbelle

Is that isabellatest file a nif file? You need to put it in the meshes folder.

Same thing with the texture files. They need to go under the textures folder, or they won't show either.

The meshes just changed right away as i put them in the right folder, but I when I uploaded it on a duplicated race it wouldn't show, instead there was a bright red exclamation mark.

 

I tried to just put in the texture of the skin under race, since the meshes were correct alredy, but then it turned out like this. What am I doing wrong?
