Help needed! RaceMenu NPCs.

[Dazdraperma]

Guys, hi! Need help!

 

All I want is to add overlays, and, change hair colour of my followers. 

 

A long time ago I played SE with EFF. In wheelmenu I was allowed to pick racemenu function, which allowed me to access racemenu on followers.

 

Currently I am seeking for same possibility. I accidently started new game with AFT, and changing it to EFF requires a new game, which will ruin my progress. As alternative, I tried this mod: 

, but it doesn't work for me with RaceMenu.

 

Please, send me a link or name of alternative mod I can use to change NPCs hair color and add overlays.

 

Kudos!

UIMenuBase menuBase = UIExtensions.GetMenu("UICosmeticMenu")
menuBase.SetPropertyInt("categories", 0x7E)
menuBase.OpenMenu(aimTarget)

 

Wrap that in an MGEF, or similar. Its possible some NiOverride magic is needed before and after but I'm not 100% clear on that. Shoot me a message if it doesn't work as-is.

 You can use this if you want a ready to use solution: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/62934

Just be mindfull, it allows you do awfull lot, but having mass NPC altered with it can be really detrimental for perofrmance. Having PC have a bunch of SMP hair, asscesoires, clothes and collision enabled body is one thing. Having several NPCs with the same treatment hang around in the same cell is another. Moderation is required for safe use.

Hi, thank you for answer and a file. Great community here.

 

But, what is it? How do I use it? I googled for unknown words you used - MGEF is a file format and NIOverride is a mod for LE. How do I use the script?

Thank you for answering. I will try this mod.

MGEF. But that's irrelevant now.

1. player.addspell xx000801
2. Look at an npc and use the power.

If the game goes weird after doing this, save and reload. If that doesn't fix it, restart the game. Also to change hair color, you'll have to do that in the CK as that's embedded in the facegen files.

Well, thank you!

 

I may be checking MGEF scripting for further use. As for now, I will use Proteus mod, recomended by Nilead fella.

It is simple, it works and it allows to change haircolor.
