Body Slide Presets

[VixNeko]

Hi, I am having some trouble understanding this mod. I am new to modding Skyrim SE and so far have been doing pretty well troubleshooting mods by myself using forums and various google searches.

 

I've built presets in BodySlide but I can't for the life of me figure out how to use them in game. They are not in the race menu and I have no idea where else to look. I've googled this every way I can think of and there is no explanation beyond how to build presets in BodySlide or how to use console commands to open the Race Menu. I know it's probably something I'm overlooking or whatever. I'm tired, I've been messing around with mods and troubleshooting for a couple days and this is the only thing I have so far been unable to figure out alone. I feel so stupid tbh.

 

Can someone please point me in the right direction so I can start using presets like a normal person?

 

EDIT: Typos.

The bodyslide page has a full walkthru on how to use it, in the Posts section, second sticky post.

 

In a nutshell, once you create a preset, you "Build" the body and outfits to that shape. The vanilla meshes are then replaced with those. There's nothing you need to do in game to see it.

Oh, then it's not working for me. I thought there was something else that had to be done since the bodies all still look vanilla to me. I'm just confused I think. >_<

 

EDIT: I don't mean they look vanilla but CBBE, sorry.

Oh, well then, its hard to troubleshoot when I have no idea what mods you have installed.

 

Assuming you at least have CBBE installed, and assuming you've done the batch build of all armor and clothing, is the issue simply it doesn't look like the preset you think you built?

 

In Bodyslide, the left side values adjust the low weight of a character (weight 0). The right side adjusts the high weight (weight 100). If you're looking at the Preview window you'll first see settings at high weight. The weight can be adjusted by a slider at the top of the preview window, so you can see what your preset will look like at lower weights. Perhaps your in-game weight is just lower than what you saw in the preview?

 

The only other thought is you have something else conflicting with CBBE. Knowing what mods you have and what mod manager you're using would help. If you prefer, Bodyslide has a Discord server for easier troubleshooting (link in posts of bodyslide page).

Hi thanks for your time. I am using Vortex and I have CBBE, SOS, XP32 Skeleton and a race mod (which I just remembered about and will test disabled).

 

And yes, the issue is that the body looks pretty much nothing like what I batch built. It does however look like the Lunari body from the race mod I mentioned earlier so that might be my issue. I will look more into the guide you mentioned in a previous reply (About how to use BodySlide) and so far looks like I was using it correctly, really hoping so anyway. I will look up the discord if I need anything else from here, so thank you very much for your help!
