Converting armor for Children of the Sky question

[bigglebojiggle]

So I've been thinking that I may try to convert some armor for RCOTS, it's been a while since I've played as a kid version of my character and it seems kind of fun. I'm good enough with Bodyslide to think I can probably pull it off (but if theres something better let me know), my real question is, how do I set the converted armors to be their own mod? How do I associate them with an esp so I can just use them with that race? I barely have any experience with Creation Kit so I'm pretty unsure.

Also, it seems like there are numerous body types in the RCOTs mesh folder, anybody know which one specifically I would look for for the reference file? I think it may be the one in the oriental folder.

Well you could just use Sky Kids That has it's own armor swapper.

Would it convert say a UNP armor, a custom armor, to be compatible with a child race?

Creating a new armor esp is fairly simple, and the best way to go about it.  just read a couple of how-to's and you should have it.  However, if you'd like, I wouldn't mind helping out and building an esp for you.

 

The second part of your question:  The oriental file is definitely where you want to look.

 

As a side note, if you come across/build a bodyslide conversion set for RCOTS, I'd appreciate if you shared it!

You can actually use unp slim as the base body for RCOTS chracters, stuffed bunny has a file called "conversion_sets_by_stuffed_bunny" (which I'm looking for the link for for you). Just add the files from that to the files in bodyslide. Choose your reference and in the conversion sets folder choose "body conversion" then you can schoose you type (yb, UNP, UNPB and Caliente) when it comes up you get a ton of sliders, just choose "UNP Skinny 0" and move it to 100. To fix seam (or just do it anyway as a precaution) replace the body with the Dimonized Base Body Skinnny (the low one "femalebody 0"), boom, you are done!

It may not work with every single armor, but it should work with anything thats bodyslide compatible, you can literally go directly from Sevenbase to UNP Slim.

The attatchment is right up top

 

I'm finding it way easier to use SevenBase armors, but basically if everything lines up correctly in body slide when you have that reference and the armor type you want it should work correctly when you finish converting it. If the two arent lined up right its much more difficult (when Importing UNP Skinny, move the skinny type to the CBBE vanilla offset)
