LadyAubrie Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 So how do I change a companion's body mesh? I downloaded Girls of Skyrim, which is completely amazing. My only problem is with the boobs. They're...massive...which I know some people are into, but I'd like something a little more tasteful and realistic. My solution was pasting the mesh and texture files from the UNP Skinny Body into Lyla's folder... ...and nothing happened. Does it have anything to do with the fact that the original packaged body was CBBE? Or is it something to do with the .esp itself, something I'd change in CK? Does anyone have any ideas on how this might be done? It's probably a quick, easy fix...right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyAubrie Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Wow, nobody has any idea at all? That's discouraging. Maybe it's not quite as simple as I'd hoped... Edited July 27, 2012 by LadyAubrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GileadMaerlyn Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) For what I saw in the creation kit, it should work. Did the "problem" occured when naked or dressed? Edited July 27, 2012 by Gilead Maerlyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GileadMaerlyn Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) I installed the mod and changed her body, it works fine. Edited July 27, 2012 by Gilead Maerlyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyAubrie Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 I installed the mod and changed her body, it works fine. Would you mind sharing what you did? :) Did you just copy/paste another mesh and texture set into one of the companions' folders? Or did you do something in the CK? My problem is that the body stays the same (as when I downloaded her) whether naked or in any clothes I put on her. I can't seem to get the mod to recognize that I changed her body at all...it's like I never made any changes at all. It's puzzling, because I'd think if she came with a directory the mod relied on for all the info about the body mesh, etc...it would make sense that if I changed what was in the directory, I'd change the body mesh. But it won't register any changes at all for some reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GileadMaerlyn Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) All I did was take the femalebody_0.nif and femalebody_1.nif from UNP and replaced those of Lyla with them. That changed her naked body (of course it didn't affect the clothes, as they are independent from the body, but you should have the clothes you want, unless you installed clothes with big boobs).

LadyAubrie Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 And that's the weird thing. I've modded her so that she shows up naked (her rags aren't considered "naked"), and I've put tons of different tops on her. I always assumed that the clothes or armor you put on sort of changes the body in its own way, and that's certainly the way it is with my own character, but with Lyla, it's almost like *she's* altering the *clothes*...dresses I put on her always have the boobs sticking way out...as does any armor I put on her. It's the weirdest thing and I'm absolutely stumped. And I know the armor/clothes aren't "big boob clothes" because my character has the UNP Skinny Body and everything looks really modest on her. Thank you for trying this experiment and being willing to respond...I just wish I knew why it worked when you overwrite her files and it didn't work on my end...*pulls hair* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyAubrie Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 Nevermind...I think I got it figured out. Thank you so much. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearhog Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Nevermind...I think I got it figured out. Thank you so much. http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/smile.gif Hi! I know this was, like, 4 years ago and all... but would you mind sharing how you achieved this, if you remember? I'm so sick of spending hours upon hours skimming nexusmods for small chested companions. I tried just downloading men, but there aren't any. Tried creating my own follower, but that ended in tragedy. Being a nearly completely flatchested female, its annoying constantly seeing breasts the size of my head, OR BIGGER! I'm so frustrated with the gamer population. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project579 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Do you have the body mesh? for Female (femalebody_0.nif, femalebody_1.nif, femalefeet_0.nif, femalefeet_1.nif, femalehands_0.nif and femalehands_1.nif) for Male(malebody_0.nif, malebody_1.nif, malefeet_0.nif, malefeet_1.nif, malehands_0.nif and malehands_1.nif).
