Making Armor Mashups from Other mods

[AgentCarolina]

RIght i'll try and explain this and keep it really simple about what im looking for help with.


I want to combine other mods armor pieces and such into one little armor. I've done this in OS and in-game it shows up fine. Now i want to be able to share this armor with friends of mine, but to do that I'd need to set up a rar file with

Meshes 

Textures

Materials


Was I supposed to do this before even starting in OS? Does OS not automatically do this?

Probably.

Why would it. OS has no idea what you're putting where until you specify paths.

Okay. Once you've created a mash-up, placing all the mesh files together to try to be seamless. Once that is done, you need to export it and etc, which I think you know how to do.

Once that is done, you can pack it into a rar file.

Data > Meshes > xxxxxx <-----------Whatever path location you saved it to. Along with all of the mods used meshes.

Data > Textures > xxxxxxx <-----------Textures for all the mods involved. Yes, you need them all.

Data > Materials > xxxxxxx <----------Material files involved with the meshes themselves.

You need all three of those things in the rar file before handing it off. Missing one Texture or Material file and things will go awkward.

You'll also need the ESPs involved otherwise the games engine won't register the meshes or textures even being there......making it useless.

So i need to keep track of WHAT Meshes i used, and track down their textures, and their materials 

Copy them alll and place them in a RAR?

Okay that's a lot simpler when explained

Just remember to use the proper folder-structure or your friends will have to move them manually.
