[LE] Help With Editing Custom Mod Race


Recommended Posts

Hi all -

 

I could really use your expertise here.

 

I'm editing a custom race mod in the Creation Kit. When I find the actor I'm trying to edit in the actors list, and edit the NPC file, none of their unique facial/head features are loading. Meaning that when I edit the NPC file, these existing custom features do not show up in any of the the drop down lists in the character gen parts fields or appear in the face preview pane. Instead, I just get a generic Nord face and options.

 

This particular mod has its own dedicated hair, mouth, face shapes, etc. as part of the mod, and doesn't rely on outside assets, like Apachii. They're all contained within the mod itself.

Since these custom features don't load, when I make any changes and then save the mod, and go in game, their face is now the generic Nord face that was in the preview pane. Very unsettling!

 

I'm sure I'm doing something very basic wrong. How do I get all their custom facial features, hair, etc., to load into the CK in the first place, so I'm editing (and then saving) the whole NPC?

 

I hope that makes sense, and hopefully this is just a rookie question that you professionals here can guide me on.

 

Cheers!

 

Edit: The answer was simple. I just overwrote the existing.esp file with the new one into the unpacked mod, then zipped it back up and installed it. The additional assets were then loaded into the game.
