New Elin Race

[PsychoMachina]

Thank you PsychoMachina you are too kind !

Most things seem to be working perfectly' date=' except one thing that I am quite curious about right now...

 

in first person view mode, I have noticed that my character's height seem to be a lot shorter (almost like a kid's height) and that NPCs have to look down on me to talk.

 

But I know that my game scale is 1.0 (and also Elin skeleton setting), and in fact, in 3rd person view I am about the same height as most NPCs. This isn't an Elin race problem as my previous Nord character is also affected.

 

Any idea what might have caused my character's first person view height to lower? Other than some equipment mods, the only major mods I have are:

CBBE v3 (set to slim i think)

Monli v2.1 (I want to try it at a later day)

Elin Race mods (Ner-Monli MainPack, Ner-Monli CBBE MegaPack)

Fair skin complexion (with CBBE/univision patch)

 

Not that it's a big deal, but it feels bizarre...

 

There are some other problems that i would like to ask about later, but first i just want to fool around with Elin

There are two skeleton files that affect her height. 1st-person view is affected by whether skeleton.nif is present or not. 3rd-person veiw is affected by skeleton_female.nif and there are 3 different versions:

1)Normal = scale 1.0 = adult height.

2)Skeleton/weapon 08 = scale .8 = Elin height and weapon scale is smaller.

3)Skeleton/weapon 1 = Elin scale .8 + weapon scale 1.0 (normal size)

 

Skeleton.nif is found in...

Data > Meshes > Actors > Character > _1stPerson

 

If you want 1st-person view to be child height, leave the NIF file in the _1stPerson folder.

If you want 1st-person view to be adult height, remove the NIF file.

You uploaded a new monli/elin mix cbbe on the front page i noticed. Was that because of my request? Because i get the impression we had a miscommunication.

I did? The Elin-Monli main pack hasn't been updated since September 24

and the custom megapack is the latest (October 27). I date the files the same day I upload them.

 

EDIT: I corrected some of the info on my OP. There were some discrepancies.

I downloaded and installed your daughters of venus race and its a really great mod and everything works fine except one thing. My characters hands are a different color and I cant figure out how to fix it. I included a pic of my problem. Any help you could give me would be appreciated.

Hello Cardplayer384

 

Enter Character Creaton (showracemenu) and reduce her weight to zero. This could be a weight issue similar to the dark head bug.

 

Also, does this happen not matter what armor she is wearing? DoV has the x117 flat-chest mesh. Try replacing it with the normal or tight body mesh. The meshes are found in Data > Meshes > Actors > Character > VenusRace.

Yes this happens no matter what armor she is wearing or if she isnt wearing any armor at all. I tried the showracemenu and her weight was already at zero. I also tried using the normal and tight body meshes and it still having the same issue. I guess I will just leave a pair of gloves on my character and problem solved right! lol. Anyways thx for the fast response.

Do you have Children of the Sky or another race mod installed? Move VenusRace.esp to the bottom of the load order. I have it last in the order and don't have dark hand issue.

 

Honestly, the only time I experienced dark hands was when I was experimenting with another race mod and I was trying different body-replacers and/or skeletons. That was why I suggesting swapping body meshes.

I do have Children of the Sky installed. I disabled the that mod and now everything is looks as it should the hand problem is fixed. Thank you for your help I really appreciate it.

What is the Load Order for "NewElinRace_MainPack_2012Sep24"??

Oh silly me. Thank you for clarifying

[PsychoMachina]

I suggest last in the load order. The only times it would be second to last, third to last, etc., is when you have the custom UNP megapack, Ultimate Followers Overhaul, and any other mods that require it be last in the order for it to work.

Normally, when someone is having some type of problem with a mod, any mod, he or she would ask for help and state what exactly the problem is then either a solution is given or steps are made to find the cause of the problems which, hopefully, will lead to a solution.

for some reason when i play im getting random lag spikes, and it only happens on the elin race

[Ownageme1]

Is this recent? Did you update Skyrim or any of the Elin files? I wonder, if you installed any of the English translations, reinstall the original, untranslated files and see if the game stopped lagging. If not, check your save file to see if it is bloated.

I have changed the download link in the OP to link to my Mediafire folder. I'll also post the link here.

Psycho, do we have an ETA on the Dawnguard compatibility of the Venus Race? Really want to play it not that I'm rushing or anything of course

Sorry, I've been busy not only with these mods, but also personal stuff. I would say in the next few days, maybe around the weekend, I'll get working on the updates.

 

Don't know if anyone can help out, but my Blender skills leaves much to be desired and I need help with some side projects.

 

Here is an example.

[pinocchio6]

Anyone else getting darker, bigger, older hands on their Venus Character? I'm sure I just missed something small. How's it going, PhychoMachina? lol

Someone else ran into a similar problem. If you have Children of the Sky or maybe another custom race, try these possible solutions.

 

1) Move the VenusRace.esp last in the load order.

 

If that doesn't work,

 

2) Deactivate Xvision.

 

If that doesn't work,

 

3) Deactivate Children of the Sky.

 

Apparently, Xvision and/or CotS is conflicting with the Venus race even though their body files uses a unique path.

Uploaded Daughters of Venus race Dawnguard compatibility update.

The Venus race main pack is still needed if you have not installed it already.

 

Creation Kit was going 'Rain-Man' on me when trying to open Dawnguard.esm so let me know if there are any problems.

 

EDIT: The Elin race and Castanics are next. I also have Hearthfire and will post any updates for that when I'm done with the Dawnguard updates.

[PsychoMachina]

Uploaded a custom Dawnguard Race Compatibility patch for the New Elin Race.

 

I tried updating the master file since the Elin race does not use a plug-in, but the game kept crashing. The Elin race should be compatible with Dawnguard, but if you are having problems with the Werewolf or Vampire transformatons then use the custom patch.

[melonny]

It elin kopatiblibi with CBBE? I did not make it there, or do not know how it is with her. There are various modes to děti.ale each race using a different version of the body. So instead I ask if there is something in it too. Otherwise it makes no sense to install ...

[PsychoMachina]

I'll be uploading hair conversions for the Elin race starting with Newsea Hairs by Lux77. Other hairs I'll be converting:

 

1) Oblivian Hairs.

2) Fallout 3 Hairs.

3) Ren.

4) Sims + Sims 2.

5) Numenume.

 

Like Apachii SkyHairs, the original hair packs are still needed.

 

Todays upload:

1) Newsea Hairs.

 

UPDATE: I got the screenshots working so now there are screens of the converted hairs.

 

<<<<<<<<<<---+--->>>>>>>>>>

 

@Melonny

 

The Elin race is compatible with the original CBBE if you use the NER-Monli Main Pack ONLY. If you decide to use the custom CBBE bodies and textures then the original CBBE is no longer needed because the Elins will be using custom bodies.

[melonny]

ok thank you .... Because now I use CBBE ... Otherwise I asked the Elin race ...
