Question about breast physics/havok object

[gelgaroth]

I've gotten a few armour mods that add pieces in the same slot as havok object/havok breast physics which I can't use without my girls boobs flopping back and forth, so I'm wondering if there's a way to add the effect without the objects or if I can change the slot of it and still have it work.

I misread this so I had to go back and edit my response,

 

If you open the armour or body in nifskope, the model will need to have an HDT

node somewhere in the model,

 

it will be labeled NiStringExtraData and will have a Name of HDT Havok Path,

the String Data will give the path of the XML file which provides the havok data.

 

With this, and bone weights, you can add the effect without the object.

There is a far better way imo the any object this method takes no esps or items equipped you simply attach your collision xml to your female head. You can do this 2 ways eaither dl a preprepard head mesh (one of the heads i know about http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/20227/?only grab the file named unpb unp mtm bodies hdt-pe patch nmm installer and dont use the item opt in the installer) or get  Nifskope http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/NifSkope and do it yourself.

 

To do it yourself ill type the instructions since you already have the object you have a working xml you just have to find it and your head mesh. The xml is usually located in data/skse/plugins and probably is named hdt.xml or in my case hdt-PE-FH.xml and head mesh in data/Meshes\actors\character\character assets.

 

1) open femalehead.nif with nifskope

2) expand 0 NiNode

2) right click on anything under 0 NiNode and select block>insert>nis>nistringextradata (note there's 2 selections that look like this make sure you select nistringextradata not nistringsextradata)

3) Select your new nistringextradata 

4) At the bottom of the screen you should see a window called block details in this theres 2 fields that need to be filled out name and string data. the name field needs to be HDT Havok Path and the string data field needs to be skse\plugins\hdt.xml or whatever path/filename of your collision xml (click on the small txt letters next to to the 2 fields to bring up a text entry window

5) make sure your new nistringextradata is still selected and now use cntrl + up arrow to move your new block until it has the entry 1 in front of it

6) save your mesh and your done

That's weird, I already have NiStringExtraData linked to an XML from when I set up collisions and it's always stopped working when I take off the havok object.

hmm.... I already had all that set up but it's always stopped when I take off the object.... Could it be because I have the body and head set up this way?

[bahamut2119]

Perhaps a game reload would fix that your sure your femalehead.nif points to the right xml?

And remember, female head only applies to the player character. If you're using a follower or npc, you'd have to find the head of that actual npc and do it. Least that's my understanding.
