[WIP] Skykids - Child races & other technical goodies - No more armor patcher! New CotS R2 Race!(6/22/15)


Recommended Posts

Posted

 

umm when i use SKArmorPatcher I get the message that the sk drow race.esm is missing some masters: Skykids.esm

 

I don't get it. how can it be missing if its installed. Looking at boss log my skykids.esm is loading before drow and monli. I don't think thats right is it?

I have tried to reordered it . but boss  changes it back  . drows been giving me a lot of issues. Help?

Did you install the userlist entries? Are you using MO? Are you using SUM?

 

yes but i had the last letter of overide missing on one, now it worked.

Ugh, I dislike LOOT for this very reason. Delete the existing armor patcher esp, rerun the patcher(through MO), move it to the bottom of the load order, then rerun the armor patcher/SUM again but with the 'force patch' option checked. Make sure its still at the bottom of your load order and see what that does.

 

If all that doesn't work, my only suggestion is to go back to BOSS, as I'm out of ideas.

If LOOT keeps sorting it too high, just give it a large priority number and it'll always sort to the back, like other skyproccers.

I keep rereading this and I don't understand. I am using Mod Organizer I have things installed. But you keep saying to run the patcher. How? I go to the Data on MO where you say the patcher is and try to run it, and It tells me to select an Binary exe. Not sure what to select?

 

Then if I try and go into Skyrim folder and load it there, it needs Boss, when I use LOOT inside of MO.

 

So what do I do? I have the esp's but the characters are just not wearing anything. (Not that I mind and I am using bikini/etc, but I am trying to stream the game and would like them to have outfits on. But whatever. If I don't figure this out it is fine.

You select the executable jar as the target with MO. When running the patcher you can skip execution of BOSS and run it anyway if you read the messages that it displays. If you cant figure that out, SUM has an option to turn BOSS execution off entirely.

As En_Hawk suggested, download SUM from http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/29865/?

Install in MO and then follow the picture.

Go to here in MO's data folder tab....

Right click the patcher and "add as binary" (or some such :lol:). Then choose it in the startup list to run it. If you're using LOOT then you have to skip one choice then tell it to run the patcher anyway. Then any armor .esp's above the patcher (in the right hand plugin pane) will be adapted to the SK bodies.

Question: What happened to some of the lewd armors from your other mod and why didn't you import those ideas with your new one? Just curious....

 

If by that other mod, you mean RCotS, that is not made by the same author. Two completely different mods. That one got banned from here because it broke the rules.

 

So those "lewd" armors? Yeah... they are against the rules here. This is a child mod. Sexualizing children is against the rules. Read them.

Hello,

 

So, I've been trying to in stall this mod, but it seems like it just hates me. I've been working on it for about four hours now.

 

I followed the instructions, and I was using the NMM. The first time I had it installed and ran the armor patch program, it seemed to patch perfectly. But when I tried playing Skyrim, it crashed just before it loaded the main screen where you choose New or Continue. I restarted my computer and tried again, with the same results.

 

In NMM, I deactivated and re-activated, hoping that would work, but it seems that just made it worse. I ran the patch, and got an error message (image attached below).

 

I have all of the required mods downloaded and active. I'm honestly not sure what else I need to do to make this work. :/

 

::EDIT::

 

After deactivating the mod, Skyrim still crashes...

 

::EDIT 2::

 

As I was adding files to the Data folders, I noticed that I was being asked if folders could be replaced a lot, to which I said yes. I'm beginning to wonder if something essential to the game was replaced by accident, so I am reinstalling the game, new Steam Skyrim folder and everything so as to start from scratch and (hopefully) avoid errors this time around.

 

::EDIT 3::

 

Completely re-installed the game, added all of my mods (4-5 more hours...) and it is still acting exactly as it did. Any help would be much appreciated.

The crashing thing sounds like a missing master, NMM is a complete piece of garbage which nobody should ever use, and as such does not highlight those. Try installing wrye and use that to check your load order for delinquent/missing masters. Just to double check, you used the installer script to install the mod vs doing it manually, correct? Are you using BOSS or LOOT to setup your load order? If using BOSS, did you install the userlist entries? Also, post your load order.

That's my guess as to what it is, yeah.

I gave up on NMM and did a manual install, although hesitantly, as I am not very good at that sort of thing. I sadly was met with the same results.

 

I used BOSS for the patch/loader thing, as was recommended (I think? It'd been a long day, lol). Userlist was posted, yeah.

 

As of now, I have deactivated SkyKids from NMM and tried a manual install once more. However, I may be doing it wrong - Drop 00 Base into the Skyrim Data file?

 

The scrrenshot attached is the results of me running the program you recommended, I hope that is what you meant by Load Order. I will admit to being very much a noob to manual installs like this.

 

Thanks for your help! Hopefully we can get this fixed, I'm going through Skyrim Withdrawls as we speak!

No, that's cut off. Right click on the column header(up top, where it says 'file', down arrow, 'installer', etc) and hit 'list mods', paste the output of that into here instead. Also, do any of your mods show up with a red background or a red box on the left? I'm also not seeing skykids.esm in the list based on what I can see in that image.

Oooh! Okay, here goes.

Also, I dropped just the Skykids.esm into Skyrim's data folder, and it at leat shows up in mods now. The only red check mark I have is Skyfall Estate... Which sucks, because I dearly love that house.

Hey, I'm trying to make the SkyKids mod work on my game and am having some problems. Everything goes fine until I have to patch the thing in "SKArmorPatcher". It failed because it said I didn't have some files. After some searching I found them and then it would want some new files again.

I did this for a while, but now I have added a file it asked for and it is still saying that I don't have it. I got the game running with them od after I put some of the parts out. Id I try to run it with all the game just crashes. When I run the mod with only osme of the parts they don't have clothes (but the loincloths) and some of their hair is messed up. 

The site is not letting me post the pic no matter what I do, but I already gave it to you in your profile.

I did do the file thing with BOSS and other things. I don't think that I'm doing anything different than what you instructed in your post.

No, if BOSS doesn't count. Could this make a difference? I have changed the files position a couple of times in the load order and it didn't change anything.

 

EDIT: I'm assuming that MO means Mod Organizer.

You need a small number of posts before you can post pics or attach files. You'll be able to soon, as I think it's only like 5 posts or something.

 

What mod manager are you using? Did you make sure you downloaded and installed all the required stuff? Did you run LOOT or BOSS before running the patcher?

Posted

Kuupe, run LOOT to order up your mods then be sure that the patcher .esp is lower in the plugins list than the armors you want patched. Then run the patcher.

BOSS is perfectly adequate, and in fact, preferred.

I did download all the files. I actually have the file that it is saying I don't have. I'm using skyrims own mod manager, but have used it to move the file to different places. Don't have any armor mods.

 

If you think that the mod manager could help then please provide your choice of mod manager.

I assume you're using Nexus Mod Manager then? There are a couple better alternatives, but they both require a bit more work to operate that comes with a learning curve. I personally find Mod Organizer to the best fit for me and I believe it would be best for most users honestly. The downside? Fresh install if you want to change over. So if the extra learning and reinstallation aren't what you want to do then stick with NMM for now.

 

I'm not really sure how best to install SK into Skyrim using NMM, though. It shouldn't be too hard since SK doesn't overwrite that much.

No, im a total dumbass and manually downloaded them and am changing the load order with BOSS and steams own mod manager.

 

I did do the manual download correctly though, because I got it working when I disabled the mods that were "missing" the files.

Why preferred? LOOT does exactly what it should do (as long as you move the patcher to the bottom). That might only be because I'm still using the original LOOT and haven't updated it. BOSS is nearly unusable for anything else these days (too many mods not on the user list) and is basically obsolete since LOOT can be tweaked for SK just like you had to with BOSS, but it's simpler to do. And MO allows you to manually give the patcher the lowest position in the LO, too.

 

I honestly found it so much easier to install and get working this time with MO and LOOT than I did the first time I did it using manual/NMM installs and BOSS (and the userlist edits). It took not even half the time to have up and running.

Try installing wrye and use that to check your load order for delinquent/missing masters. Skyrim's built in launcher is an ABSOLUTE no-no.

 

As for installing with NMM/MO, SK has an installer package now, which automates the process.
