Multi Body Mod (Using various Armors)

[aphonia]

Hey guys, I'm new to the loverslab forums (mostly have been on nexusmods), but I'm hoping someone here might be able to assist with an issue I've been having.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've tried reaching out to the people who created it over at nexus, but they haven't responded.

 

 

I've been using the Multi-Body-Textures - MBT_Base - 16 body mods by veekahn:

(see attached image)

 

I've installed the mod and seems to be working since I can craft different body types and equip them.  All is good there!

 

Then I went to my data/meshes/armor folder and replaced an armor set ex Ancient Nord Armor (in the Draugr folder) with an Adec type. When I go and equip the armor in game, it equips, but the body/skin is not correct (legs and stuff don't look right with the textures). And equipping the armor removes the Adec body that I crafted. 

 

I then tried to copy the meshes to the data/meshes/adec/armor folder and that didn't do anything. Equipping the Ancient Nord Armor makes it look like the vanilla / default armor.

 

So I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.  Again any help would be appreciated.
