nightingale armor replacer crash

[karagdan]

So, I tried to install a replacer for the nightingale armor, but when ever the armor is equipped the game CTDs with no error message. Tried multiple different replacers and all have the same issue. When I uninstall them the issue goes away. I haven't seen any comments regarding the problem on any file on the nexus and google turned up nothing. I have other mods replacing meshes and textures and adding new ones in. I'm perplexed. Thoughts?

 

EDIT: It happens even if I replace the nightingale armor with something I have in my game already.

Did you make sure the game was pointing to the right meshes and textures? Sounds like something in the mesh just didn't like the game there.

yes

Could you point me the armour in question? I probably should test it and see if I can give you an answer there.

That's the weird part. It's any armor that replaces the nightingale armor. I actually took an ebony armor replacer I have and put it in the nightingale folder with the correct file name, and I had the problem. I eventually created an esp that replaces the armor in a new directory, but if I just try to replace the mesh, CTD. It's bizarre.

 

I should maybe clarify that at this point I've successfully replaced the armor with my esp, so this is just a matter of intellectual curiosity, rather than something that really needs to be fixed.
