Swapping body types.

[Kpnut]

This question comes in two parts (and I've put it here because it's not really technical help.)

 

1) Is it possible to give the different races a unique body type through the CK? I know I can do it with the Oblivion construction kit but when I check the Skyrim version I couldn't find the option to do so.

 

2) How do I get the Demoica Lilith race to work with a different body type? I know there's a script that stops the race from being able to use any armour or clothes not provided by the mod and there's a fuckhuge gap where the neck is supposed to be when I switch body type. I like the head for it but nothing else.

 

So yeah some help with these would be nice (if this is in the wrong place just move it)

1) yes.

[Kpnut]

1) yes.

Okay how? Probably should've mentioned that in the OP but as I said I couldn't find the option to do so.

Open the race and go to the "body data" tab. Then change the body in the "body" menu. Most standalone follower guides mention how to put it together.

If you want the character to have a different body type when wearing armors, you will need to set up armor addons for each armor, and add those to the actual armor form so that they show up when equipped. Its a fairly tedious process, but doable. Of course, you will need to mod all modded armors, including those from quest mods for example, else your character will have body parts going invisible when equipping armors from those mods.

 

You can have a character use a different body type when naked but share armor addons with an existing race. That will mean the character will have a default body type when wearing armor though. It is under the "copy morph data" on the first tab in the race form.

Neither of the two guides I read where very clear on how to do that (it's so much simpler for Oblivion.)

 

also about my second question, how would I get the demonica lilith race to play nicely with a different body (or how would I be able to just slap the race's head onto a body of my choosing without going into blender?)

you can't

you have to do that with v4.2 head and citrus neck

 

 

 

 

 

and jaw seam will be worse than between dem head and dem body

So basically the race is locked into a body that I don't like and have no armour or clothing mods for? Brilliant.

that's your problem if you can't do it

 

the one that sell daz stuff in skyrim put another daz body in skyrim before v4.2 and v6

that one use skyrim head, so that head was snap onto that daz body, same thing you can see above

 

the next step i have no idea how to do that, merging head neck texture with body neck texture

that's why i made another snap, keeping skyrim neck this time, can't hide the jaw seam with hairs, but i can hide the neck seam with a collar, problem solved
