How i can get a racemenu exported head on a npc?

[Shredder]

Im working on a beauty mod for skyrim and want to make each npc to my liking, but i keep getting the face bug.

 

What i do is just to create the face i like on racemenu and use the export head button, I then rename the .nif and .dds files in the chargen folder to the target npc form ID, lets say Abelone, so i call them 0008774F.nif and 0008774F.dds.

I then put those files in J:\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\Data\meshes\actors\character\FaceGenData\FaceGeom\Skyrim.esm and Data\textures\actors\character\FaceGenData\FaceTint\Skyrim.esm.

 

I have also tried putting them in a folder named like my mod, but no success. I have to edit the nif in some way to read the .dds?

Try this out. It's basically a step-by-step guide on how to get things working.
