Tedom Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Just installed CK, So how do I edit the mods that I have? Edit: sorry that was a stupid question, I'll try exploring some more but please expect some questions coming.
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) Hey PsychoMachina, I just found out that my fix only fixes the Player's Face. NPC/Enemy faces are still blocky. Don't know where their textures are^^ The Elin NPC and Enemies only have tints. They link to the same files as the playable character (plugins), but do not come with their own texture files.

So to smooth them I just need to edit every elin-related _msn.dds file right? More annoying is the 3rd person issue with greatswords How can i fix this? I have no experience with skeletons and stuff, so i cant figure it out^^

I have no experience with skeletons and stuff, so i cant figure it out^^ Other than the one in 2chElin Fix (elin face tex_msn.dds) there are 4 more in the FACE subfolder. For the greatsword displacement, the hands would have riggings for swords. It would be a matter of making adjustments to that particular rigging. Edited March 2, 2013 by PsychoMachina

PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 I currently have a Breton with Lady Body. Elisef is wearing Krista's Jarl clothes (for Lady Body) and she looks great. When I do the GT NPC replacers, I might make her a Castanic with Lady Body just for those sexy Jarl clothes.
HeliDooder Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Castanic? I didn't know there's a mod to bring these hotties to Skyrim O.o Can you post me a link?
Yanazake Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 OH that explains why there'll be conflicts. I'd gladly replace CotS then. I can only hope there will not be any kind of bug in my game for removing/replacing that mod. Just a question tho, will there be male elins/monli or any sort of boy replacer included, then? I wouldn't even mind vanilla clothes... I JUST WANT DECENT FACES. And better hairs, probably apachii ones or something just as good [i know there are other hair mods, Apachii one is just the most known]
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Castanic? I didn't know there's a mod to bring these hotties to Skyrim O.o Can you post me a link? I made 2 versions of the Castanic race. The first is outdated since it was released around the time Beth released the 1.6 update. The second was an update using a very early version of ECE-CME. The ECE-CME I used in the Monli race Enhanced is far better. My Girls of Tera will consist of the Elins (with a kawaii human face and Elin body), Castanics, and High Elves. I might add the Tera Humans, but I need to find a way to make them unique compared to the Skyrim humans. OH that explains why there'll be conflicts. I'd gladly replace CotS then.

And better hairs, probably apachii ones or something just as good [i know there are other hair mods, Apachii one is just the most known] http://www.loverslab.com/topic/14711-monli-race-v3-enhanced/ I updated the Monli race. It includes the male Monli as shown in my screenshot in that thread. The male and female Monli's can have either the original Monli ears or Kashim's version with human ears. The updated race uses the latest ECE-CME which is what I'll be using for the Girls of Tera, or one version as there will be another without CME (Character Making Extender). The male "Elins" are the Poporis. http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110519200630/tera/images/d/db/Popori.jpg I have the ripped models for the Poporis, but I'm not experienced enough to make the conversion. I'm slowly learning Blender, though.
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 after using the creation kit, it froze at the begining where it shows the skyrim logo, where there's no smoke and the continue, new etc. isn't showing up.

Did you have any problems changing their outfit to 'none'? Hold on, I think I know what went wrong. Give me a minute to make the changes, check them in game and upload the file.
Yanazake Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I'm seriously hoping for any non-ece/cme versions. I'm sure it adds some incredible customization options, but I'm not going to use that [and I get less esps to install, less incompatibility... and so on]
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Well.... I kinda strip all of the Elin Npcs as well >_>.... I know I'm a psycho...
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Did the creation kit already did it's trick once you edit them?, So I can just uninstall it just fine right?
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Well.... I kinda strip all of the Elin Npcs as well >_>.... I know I'm a psycho... Just from removing Mi Ya's and Yi Ka's outfits or did you go all out naturist? Did the creation kit already did it's trick once you edit them?, So I can just uninstall it just fine right? If you're referring to the Creation Kit then uninstalling it would have no affect on the game. Alright, here you go. Edited ESP File MiYa-YiKa Edited.7z
Raith009 Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 just outa curiousity any idea when gt will be ready? im guessing next weakend or the weakend after (hopeing sooner)Ik u said that u started im just soo eager for it lolz
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Well, if I make the GT Elins standalone (not compatible with the current Elins), the core files and maybe a new body pack will be ready by next weekend. It could be sooner. The last release date was pushed back because of the problems with Mediafire, finding a decent place to upload the files and getting the enhanced Monli race done and out of the way.

PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 @Skyramiel Try this one. This time I know I removed their default outfits. MiYa-YiKa Edited2.7z The problem with the first was I launched CK through Mod Organizer. Something happened and the edits did not save. This time I launched CK through Steam.
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I'm guessing this CK doesn't like me much cause everytime I try to edit an npc default clothing it freezes in the beginning. What exactly am I suppose to load when editing elin NPC? I load ElinRace Enemy.esp ElinRace NewNPC.esp ElinRace NPC.esp I feel like I'm doing something wrong. Edit: I figured it's something to do with the npc I edited. I'm not really familiar with what I can edit there and not edit, I usually do just touch the onces with "NPC" on their names.
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 ^nevermind the problem above, managed to do something about it I noticed that the nord female child are all elins (just checked britte and svari)... However even if I change their default clothes to none, nothing happens. Any help?
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Ok not just nordracechild are the ones who are elins. There's this girl named lisette but when I checked the CK, it says her race is a bretton and when I try to edit her default clothes, It doesn't change. Any help?
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 @Skyramiel Go to your SKYRIM folder and look for SkyrimEditor.ini, open it with Notepad, look for the [GENERAL] category and at the bottom of the [GENERAL] category add this line (if it's not already there): bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1 The category list should look like this. [General]bUseVersionControl=0bUseMyGamesDirectory=0SLocalSavePath=Saves\SLocalMasterPath=Data\SLocalBackupPath=Data\CheckInBackupuiFaceGenMaxEGTDataSize=67108864uiFaceGenMaxEGMDataSize=67108864bUseEyeEnvMapping=1bFixFaceNormals=0bUseFaceGenHeads=1bFaceMipMaps=1bExternalLODDataFiles=1bOnlyActiveFileForRefFix=1bForceCheckOutOnRefFix=0bFixPersistenceOnRefInit=0bFixBadLocRefsOnInit=0iCheckCellRegionsOnInit=0bCheckDoorCollisionOnInit=0bWarnOnGameSettingLoad=0bFaceGenTexturing=1bCheckHairOnInit=0bKeepHeadOnRaceChange=0bCreateShaderPackage=0uGridDistantTreeRangeCity=4uGridDistantCountCity=4uGridDistantTreeRange=15uGridDistantCount=25uGridsToLoad=5bAnimationUseBlendFromPose=0fAnimationDefaultBlend=0.2000fAnimationMult=1.0000iCheckOutOnBoundChange=2bFixAIPackagesOnLoad=0bKeepPluginWhenMerging=0bLoadTheUserPlugin=0bCreate Maps Enable=0bDisableDuplicateReferenceCheck=1bCheckForMultiFileForms=1bCheckForRefCellChanges=0bTintMipMaps=0uExterior Cell Buffer=36uInterior Cell Buffer=3bPreemptivelyUnloadCells=0SFaceTestSoundName=Data\Sound\Voice\Test\CharGen QA1.waviTextColorRegionFormB=160iTextColorRegionFormG=160iTextColorRegionFormR=160iTextColorLockedChildFormB=0iTextColorLockedChildFormG=255iTextColorLockedChildFormR=255iTextColorLockedFormB=0iTextColorLockedFormG=0iTextColorLockedFormR=255iTextColorMyFormB=0iTextColorMyFormG=120iTextColorMyFormR=0bClearPersistenceOnVCSort=0bAllowNonGroupedVersionControl=0iFullSaveCellThreshhold=20iNPCCheckOutCount=500iLandCheckOutCount=1024fPathGridAutoConnectRadius=512.0000SFile Path=bLight Radius=0bMaximize Editor=0bPreview=0bAllowUnsafeSave=0bAllowMultipleEditors=0bSkipValidateForms=1bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1 Now in the Creation Kit, when selecting the master files, you will be able to choose more than 2. When editing the Elin followers or Elin NPC plugins, the files you select will look something like this: Skyrim.esm RaceCompatibility.esm ElinRace.esm - - (ACTIVE) ElinRace NPC.esp (or ElinRace NewNPC.esp or ElinRace Enemy.esp) I think you didn't have that one entry in SkyrimEditor.ini and couldn't include the 3 master files when editing the Elin plugins. One way to know what master files the plugins are using is to click on the plugin in the window that lists the master/plugin files and look to the list on the right-side. The plugin's dependancies (master files) will be listed there. These master files need to be enabled when editing the plugin. You can also have multiple plugins enabled, but only one can be "active" because the active plugin is what is being edited and changes save to. If the plugins are enabled, but none are active, CK will have you save any changes as a 'new' plugin (CK doesn't create master files).
Tedom Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Just did what you told me to, Will that fix my problem on editing lisette and other elin chara? meh going to try it now!
PsychoMachina Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 ^nevermind the problem above, managed to do something about it I noticed that the nord female child are all elins (just checked britte and svari)...

There's this girl named lisette but when I checked the CK, it says her race is a bretton and when I try to edit her default clothes, It doesn't change. Any help? Are you editing ElinRace NPC.esp? This one changes the named NPCs to Elins. ElinRace New NPC adds Elins and ElinRace Enemy changes some of the enemies to Elins.
