triceps Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 GREAT i'll try to darken her hair a little, but that looks perfect for me I tried to make a follower all night long, with some tutorial from youtube and the CK, whenever i came to make it a Monli, it crashed.. I even tried to modifi an existing follower to enter the monlirace, it crashed again... I'll be eagerly waiting for your work

darklordavalon Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 I was working on a Monli companion, but me and the CK don't get along. It wont let me select a hair style, and a whole host of other odd little issues, then I lost the file which was downright frustrating. I was making an interesting semi-round faced Monli named Toph (temporary name cause I couldn't think of anything) was going to try to hitch on a quest line and such.

Dreamer102 Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Does this mod change the NPC's like "Children of the Sky"? Or it this only for the Player Character? Thanks, Dreamer
Dreamer102 Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 I'd love a loli with boobs' date=' though. I realize that's not how they're typically done, but I like boobies. [/quote'] You could use bodyslide to increase the breasts on the .nif or drop a cbbe body mesh with larger breasts (femalebody_1) in your monli folder. I can't say whether the textures will be fouled up but it has worked for me with other custom races. Awesome! If this Monli mod is PC only, I can use your advice with "Children of the Sky" and get the same effect with NPCs.
Dreamer102 Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Crud. I tried it on the "Children of the Sky" npc's and everything looks the same. What am I doing wrong? I replaced the Femalebody_0 and Femalebody_1 with cbbe replacements and they look the same. Should I refresh Archiveinvalidation in NMM?? *totally confused* Skyrim's file structure is so much more confusing than Oblivions... Damnit.
Dreamer102 Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Seen a few people asking about body types. Remember armours have their own body shape so any installed armours you have will retain their proportions but fitted to the monli skeleton size. If you want to have the monli character but with a different body type' date=' all you have to do is go to the monli folder in meshes and change the femalebody_1.nif for whatever your preference, for example you could make one in the caliente bodyslide utility and place it in there. It will fit to the monli skeleton so it won't look exactly the same. [/quote'] Okay. I see the error of my ways. I've been trying to do this with the "Children of the Sky" mod when I should be working with the "MONLI/Loli" mod. I will uninstall Children of the Sky and install the "MONLI/Loli" mod tomorrow evening and see if I can get my NPCs to look the way I'd like. Man, this is tough.
Dreamer102 Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Can someone do me a rlly big favor and post a save game with a good looking face i cant make anything .A. My character' date=' she's not lv1 but I figure you can look at her stats in the showracemenu and make a copy easily enough, the main thing is probably the files and such right? Dunno... I'll make a lvl 1 version and update this post when I can: [img']http://i45.tinypic.com/8ycarn.jpg[/img] Save: http://www.mediafire.com/?oy6xg2a983tjhng Edit: Lvl1 save: http://www.mediafire.com/?675h4sssm46lf0h Also My monli mesh folder: http://www.mediafire.com/?9edt5cj919l6x96 Uses Tera hairs (not sure which number O_o) Currently wearing Shredded Triss Also patched colours: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/6923 I think I'm using all the rest normal stuff, I uninstalled: Bigger eyes, puffy cheeks and Enhanced editor (not my cup of tea, sorry, face didn't seem to work for me). I edited my monli's skin to be a little glossy just for some sun effect, so monli texture folder: http://www.mediafire.com/?8m23gig9fqz57sc I think that's everything necessary... not entirely sure Hope this helps anyone who's interested. I also definitely recommend the camera settings, they took me ages My mediafire skyrim folder for easy access: http://www.mediafire.com/?hy4yf7t3akv15 Most of the stuff I use is there or it's on skyrim nexus. I'll be happy to upload anything if anyone wants. Edit: Okay, made a lvl1 save. So you know, some editor features aren't available in the initial selection, such as the hair mod, so I had to go through the intro until I could do showracemenu, to finish. Also my ANK Glasses/wings mod decided to add 18 pairs of everything to my inventory to start... which left me overencumbered, so I had to crawl to follow the guy at the start, which was quite hilarious. (If anyone wants the glasses they're in the chest where the armour and helgen key are kept). I found it surprisingly difficult to get the character just right, you might want to reposition the eyes/nose slightly, I think everything's pretty close though it's somehow not quite as nice as My original monli character.. imo... I tried opening showracemenu on that one but that killed skyrim for some reason.. dunno why, I haven't added any mods that affect showracemenu since I made it : / weird... So that was a no go. Anyway, I'm done with my uber long post... hope I've helped some ppl Edit: Lvl1 character looks angry... so I might've gotten her eyebrows wrong... Grr Thank you for these files. I will replace my install files with your files once I get MONLI installed. I know it probably looks like I'm talking to myself in this thread but no one is answering my questions so I'll just keep posting to myself til someone answers my questions and I can shut up.
Biggsamus Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Dreamer102 what are you trying to do? I don't quite understand what you're trying to achieve. Personally I haven't tried this Loli/Monli mod yet, I've only tried the original Monli mod. That mod added another playable race called Monli. I created a character, but noticed that
Biggsamus Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 @ Dreamer102 what are you trying to do? I don't quite understand what you're trying to achieve. Personally I haven't tried this Loli/Monli mod yet, I've only tried the original Monli mod but it should work the same. I created a character, but noticed that the body slider wasn't working for the upper body so I copied the femalebody_1 file from the Calientes CBBE Body Mod, replaced the Monli version and worked perfectly. \data\meshes\actors\character\Monli I find the best way is to create your very own Monli/Loli Follower using the creation kit... or wait a little bit, and I will create one you can download if you want! @darklordavalon I had the same problem so I managed to grab one of the hairs from the Apachii Sky Hair mod and create the hair in the CK for my Monli. @Rajion I create my followers as "Protected". I do that because i hope it will be more compatible with other mods. Some mods (like UFO) add a dialogue option that makes the follower essential. Oh and glad you like @triceps I'm not sure why that would happen the tutorial i used was this http://j-u-i-c-e.hubpages.com/hub/Hot-to-Turn-Your-Skyrim-Character-into-a-Follower# Make sure when you run your Creation Kit you right click the icon then "run as administrator". All kinds of annoying things happen if you don't do that i find Hope i've helped a little. Sorry for the huge post!
Septfox Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 I've been working on an outfit lately, haven't been reading forums :\ I'm pretty sure installing this alone won't change any NPCs. You'd need to do that yourself in the CK. Alternately (and purely theoretically as far as stock children go) you can open the console, click on an NPC, and type in "setrace Monli" to force the NPC to change race. As for any interaction between "CBBE Loli Race" (that is, Monli) and Children of the Sky...there is none. The Monli race is an entirely separate mod, using CBBE slim as its base body, (slightly) custom CBBE textures, and a custom headmesh and head texture. CotS has bodies on the other end of the spectrum (twiglike flat loli and custom "perky" UNP iirc), probably one of RAN's plump-cheek head variants, er...well, I'm sure it uses other stuff. I don't have the curious need to have strippable children in my game, so I don't have it installed/have the resources readily available to flip through. Anyway, like Biggsamus, I've only used the original Monli mod and built up on it, but the path should be the same; \data\meshes\actors\character\Monli holds all the meshes used by the Monli race. Any mesh modifications you want your character or NPCs you make to use, go in there.
fern Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Does this mod change the NPC's like "Children of the Sky"? Or it this only for the Player Character? Thanks' date=' Dreamer [/quote'] i change original Monli.esp and make 4 followers in Riverwood bunch of lolis also i try to add nice hairs on followers, but have glitches with them =(
Dreamer102 Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 The mod I was on about making' date=' inspired by the fact your monoli mod has it's own folder for mesh/texture/etc. has already been made! Now I don't have to attempt to learn to use CK until another crazy idea hits me http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=16964 [/quote'] OMG!! It's like body-by-race....but with pre-populated folders! And a simpler file structure!!! Awesome! This one is even better for individual customization of female NPCs!! http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/16668 "The Spice of Life" Oh heaven!
Septfox Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 i change original Monli.esp and make 4 followers in Riverwood bunch of lolis also i try to add nice hairs on followers' date=' but have glitches with them =( [/quote'] I'm not really seeing a problem from your screenshots, so I'm just guessing here... if you're using Ran's plump-cheek headmesh, then it'll clip with...well, most hair that would normally go over or around the face. The only way to truly fix it is to go and edit each hairstyle manually so it fits over/around the cheeks, but in some cases you might be able to mess with the x/y scaling in Nifskope to make the style bigger overall so it fits over the cheeks. Alternatively, just use a more "normal" proportioned headmesh, but I suppose that's not an option if you really like the "rori-plump" cheeks. OMG!! It's like body-by-race....but with pre-populated folders! And a simpler file structure!!! Awesome! Yarp. Bethesda dropped the ball on some things with Skyrim, but for the most part separation of resources doesn't seem to have been one of them. Each race can be assigned unique parts, textures, skeletons, etc. Some animations are even gender-based; walking animations for example have separate versions this time around. They're learning, Bethesda is. Slowly but surely, they're learning.

[/quote'] the problem was with hairs what i try to add myself, because of Creation Kit can't open many files esm when you make mod's but when i start to use hair, what replace original, glitch was gone p.s. i don't use Nifskope before, i try it
licun7 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 http://cfile24.uf.tistory.com/image/203E7146500B8D091BAEF8 http://cfile5.uf.tistory.com/image/201EA54F4FDD661E38123F it was amazing nice mod!
Dreamer102 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Biggsamus and Septfox: I finally got my loli follower! I'm a father!!! I downloaded the "ashley" mod that was posted waaaaay back in the thread. She works perfectly after I replaced all of her files with the files from the MONLI mod (renaming some to fit the original mods file naming convention) She is great! Scalable, turns into a werewolf, obeys mcs and aft commands! Everything! Thanks to everyone that helped me on here and via pm. I am going to try to build on her and change her hair and other things in the Esp via the CK. So pleased!! Thank you all!!
PsychoMachina Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 http://cfile24.uf.tistory.com/image/203E7146500B8D091BAEF8 it was amazing nice mod! I saw that on another site awhile back but there was no link to dl it. Do you happen to have a link for this outfit (tails and everything)? Thank you.
rizkhi04 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 may I ask something... for Slightly glossy body _s maps: ¤ femalebody_1_s.dds ¤ femalehands_1_s.dds where must i put it on...??? thanks before...
Shikai89 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Several pages before there was mentioned that the warpaints of the Monli race are buggy, that's what I've experienced myself today. (After saving and loading you get some other warpaint on your character if you use the ones from Monli race, same for using Dirt in your face) That's why I tried to get it to work and get rid of that bug with the Creation Kit, and I even was successful (after 2-3 hours of searching/fixing) Editing took quite some time 'cause I couldn't copy/paste those warpaints, oh well... Dunno if I should post my edited Monli.esp (I also added many more hair colors to choose from) or if I should describe it (Tutorial) how I've done it with the CK. Edit: Just seen that Monli v2.1 is out, didn't look at 1st page.... is that bug fixed with that version or still there? Edit2: Just checked the files, seems only one esp file was added, rest seems untouched.
