I'm so excited for this mod! Perfectly combined armors, unique guard armors, Oblivion-style Imperials, Nordic-styled Stormcloaks and more... I know this will become one of the greatest armor packs ever.

Hi.

 

I'm working on a mod - The Aether http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/49090/? - and I wanted to use the armor models and textures made by ActusReus. I've played around with the GECK and Creation Kit for hundreds of hours, so I know my way around. I've never attempted anything like this, though, so I'm learning. I downloaded the Credo WIP torrent, assuming I could just put the meshes into the CK and I'd be all set. I didn't get very good results.

 

I really hate to come off as a burdensome noob, but I don't know anything about this sort of process. If someone could explain to me what's what, I think I may have a better chance at working things out.

 

What I've done so far - to sort of bypass the confusion, hassle, and irritation of using the files from the torrent - is to simply use the same ones from the standalone mods (Northman Armors, the plate armors). I didn't do this to be disingenuous or dishonest, I did only because I'm assuming they're the same files and it would save me the time and effort of fixing the ones inside the torrent. From what I've gathered doing that, I know how to take a mesh from the Skyrim/data directory and get it into the game (making an Armor Addon and then the Armor itself, etc.).

 

So, from there, the torrent is actually still downloading. I do have enough of it (I think?) downloaded to make 'something' of it. What I wanted to use were the Riften Guardsman, Stormcloak A and Stormcloak B armors (in addition to the Northman light and heavy armors, and minor use of the dark plate armor - these I have already imported into the game with no problems so far).

 

So... What I'm really asking is - would anyone be willing to explain to me what would need to be done for those? There are plenty of tutorials out there, I know, but that's either for making something from scratch or mildly modifying Vanilla items. I don't know at what stage these items (Riften Guardsman, Stormcloak A & B) are at and where to go from there.

 

Thank you, any input is appreciated.
