Need Help Applying Tattoos via Scripts

[Code Serpent]

I'm trying to make a sort of 'curse' mod, where Daedric writing and tattoos grow over the player. I'm trying to do this via some RaceMenu overlays, however I don't have enough experience with NiOverride to get started on this. I'm assuming this will work similarly to Blush When Aroused, although the mod author hasn't released the source code.

I'm not super familiar with RaceMenu but you could always use SlaveTats. Either to apply the tattoos, or (if you don't want to require SlaveTats for your tattoos) you can check out the source code there to figure out how to apply racemenu overlays. Last time I looked at the SlaveTats source code, I seem to recall the pertinent code being in the MCM script. But that should at least point you to the right script to find it if it's not there.

I'll second the suggestion of SlaveTats, you can also have have the tattoos apply spells to the character they're applied to (see Dibellan Defender as an example of tattoos that apply spells to their wearers).

SlaveTats is your best bet. There is an addon to SlaveTats called SlaveTats EventBridge. I suggest taking a look at the EventBridge I think it is what you are looking for.
