DLC Meshes Location Question

[selonianth]

I'm trying to make a mod that swaps genders by swapping all of the gender-specific items. Males get female stuff, females get male stuff, everyone's happy. Issue being, I'm trying to swap which gender gets which gender-specific armor, to theoretically make it as friendly with custom armor mods as possible. Issue being the DLC armor addons. They're not in the textures*.bsa that the base-game ones are in so they have me at a bit of a loss.

You find them in separate bsa:

 

Dawnguard.bsa

Dragonborn.bsa

HearthFires.bsa

 

You are aware that you can swamp the gender specific items by just using the creation kit without touching the meshes?

I can't tell it to use the other .nif without being able to access it

 

Also I already checked there and they're not there. Dragonborn.bsa has armor/Knuckles and that's it. Dawnguard's has no armor meshes in it at all nor does Hearthfire (which is the only one that makes sense.)

Aha! I found them. even in Oldrim's files it's silly how they do it. For basegame meshes inside the bsa it's Meshes/Armor not so for the DLC. The DLC it's Meshes/DLC01/Armor. Because Bethesda can't do anything that makes sense.
