Fitness Texture Blending with Body Change mod

[FutaL0ver]

Hello!

 

I'm curious to know how to use the fitness blender with the body change mod. I have absolutely no experience with any blending at all.

 

I'm using MO, so I know it will not be easy. I'm mostly knowledgeable about Body Change, it has a mesh and texture folder, and then sub-folders for each custom body. 9 Bodies total. Lets me switch between UNP and CBBE which I use the most. (CBBE for most armors, UNP for my manga fetish).

Fitness Body

 

So what I'm trying to figure out is what I'm supposed to do with the blender and the textures that I'm using. I'll be using Fair Skin Compilation most likely, or SG Renewed.

 

messing around with UNP and not using body change right now to see how this goes.

So I found out how easy texture blending works for the currently installed texture, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to setup a custom texture so I can put it into the Bodychange/Texture/CustomPreset9 folder. If anyone has experience on knowing how to do this please let me know. I know there's an option for doing it but I don't know how to get texture blender to find the textures I'm wanting to change.

When I was using texture blender for a specific race, I just copied the texture files to "textures/actors/character/female" folder. Just back up your previous textures. Once you're done, just paste the textures back to the appropriate folders.

I can't get to that folder. All my mods that I install I use mod manager which must inject the files into an ESM or something because those folders in my skyrim directory don't exist.

[Jimcarry]

Errrr... I don't use mod manger so I don't know how it works. So your skyrim directory doesn't have a texture folder? 

[FutaL0ver]

No, apperantly mod manager injects the files that skyrim uses isntead of opening it up as explorable it creates its owon mod files and folders 

[Jimcarry]

Try opening the Config.xml that comes in the texture blender folder and changing the directory to match your file path.  Or probably don't use mod manager, use something better like mod organizer. I don't run any mod managers because I only have a couple mods enabled.

[FutaL0ver]

Yeah sorry I use mod organizer. Tried opening the Config.xml and set the path for textures to be saved to another spot but it doesn't work?...

If you use mod organizer you can create a mod yourself by creating a folder in "Mod Organzer´\mods".

Then set it up so that it is a texture replacer for vanilla. Restart MO to see that mod and put it last.

Now you should be able to see these textures in the Blender.

 

To set up the mod you can copy a other body texture mod and rename it.
