CBBE belly inflation question

[begalund]

Okay, I've managed to get belly inflation working in fertility mode with a basic CBBE special body using a default nord.  I'm not using anything special, just the normal CBBE body, XPMSE skeleton, racemenu, and FNIS (and fertility mode obviously).  It's working fine and the default prisoner is nicely inflated by day 7 of a typical 10-day pregnancy.  So it's working on your typical nord.

 

A friend of mine has put together a custom race that uses a UNP-based body that I'm trying to make a CBBE alternative for.  The problem is that the meshes for the custom race aren't located in the standard default location of \data\meshes\actors\character\character assests\

but instead inside a subdirectory located at \data\meshes\actors\character\character assests\customrace\

 

I've attempted to copy and move the various female*.nif and *.tri files into the new subdirectory.  I've opened each of the nif files individually to fix the internal references to the tri file locations to account for the new subdirectory.  I've also copied the skeleton nif into the new subdirectory as well, but I have no belly inflation (and no breast or butt inflation either).  The body remains completely static.

 

So I'm obviously missing something minor that I need to update here, but I'm missing it.  Anybody want to lend me an assist on this?  Because I'm lost at this point and starting to go cross-eyed.
