Custom Races and Better Vampire Fangs and Eyes(BFVE)

[Les Enfants Terribles]

Hello

 

So I am trying to get this mod; http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/8720/?to work with Better Vampire Fangs and Eyes. The problem is, every other NPC in the game uses the BFVE assets as intended, however my custom race doesn't. I tried manually copying the included assets into my custom race's folder, but it didn't even ask me to replace, as those files do not exist in the custom race's folder, and naturally it didn't work when I tried to simply add them.

 

I opened up the Custom Races.esp with TES5Edit in hopes of maybe finding the eye texture it is using so I can replace it but no luck. The CustomImperialRaceVampire I'm using, has regular red eyes, but the mod I installed (BFVE) has way better eyes, which are glowing. So basically, all the vampire NPCs in the game have these cooler looking eyes, except my custom race. Any help would be much appreciated.

Yeh this will be because the race will have different file directory to every other race as it is modded in. The default directory is Skyrim/Data/Textures/Actors/Character/Eyes and they are

eyevampire_01.dds and eyevampire_02.dds. BVFE will change these however you custom race doesn't use these directories. If you are able to find where the CustomImperialRaceVampire is then you can just paste the BVFE eye textures into the custom race eyes folder. The reason for the no overwrite might be because the race's modder just named them differently so when overwriting them make sure you change the BVFE files to whatever the current ones are and overwrite.
