[LE] Skyrim Race help

[wilwhitt56]

Hello everyone! im having a little trouble with creating a race for skyrim. I'll try to go step-by-of what ive done so far up until where im stuck.

 

1. the race im trying to make are called the FahrNimphs, a race of small, feathery forest people who are about the size of rieklings. They live in the woodlands of Tamriel. They are exceptionally good at using illusion magic to hide themselves.

2. I got the feathers on the body, along with the claws on the hands (if anyone knows where i can find claws for feet let me know)

 

3.i seem to have them on the NakedTorso and hands in armoraddon

 

4.i placed all 3 (torso, hands, and feet) in the correct spot in the armor category.

 

5. when i placed the skin in the Skin category under the race, she's naked with no feathers. What did i do wrong here?

 

Edit: doesnt seem to work for actors either

Lots and lots of things can go wrong in the creation of armors/skins with custom models. If something hasn't been set up correctly in the export of the nif from your 3D-modeling program, or if a single little NIF setting still has an invalid value...

 

The most usual mistake when something doesn't throw any errors, but just doesn't show up in the CK or in-game, is that the setting under the BSLightingShaderProperty's called "Shader Flags 1" isn't marked as Skinned. Which armors and skins always should be. Check to see if that's the issue :smile:

they all seemed to be checked as skinned, is there anything else that should be checked? specular maybe?

I'd recommend checking out various vanilla models in Nifskope to compare the settings to your own. But yeah, specular should most probably be checked too :)

i did copy and paste the feathers from one body to another, making sure they were the same size using bodyslide, you think the error could be there? i also checked the race in-game and the body's gone

ill do that later, thanks. Maybe you can answer this one a little easier, im having issues with the male dagi raht race where his torso is a default male with no junk. with dagi raht race reborn it only gives you 2 options for body, default and better males. im using SoS. you know how to fix this? ive used this but im pretty sure its for swapping out his area. https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/1258123-dagi-raht-by-nuska/page-11&do=findComment&comment=10811723
