Paint it...green


Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay so I use UNP bods n textures. But I always had this idea wood elves should be sorta wel...green. Maybe that's just the Captain Kirk in me. But if I wanted to go about changing only the Bosmer to the a shade of green, how would I go about it?

  • Get an appropriate texture.
  • Install that texture in a unique folder.
  • Edit the race data for the Bosmer to point to that texture location.
  • ???
  • Profit!

Orc race is already green in some mods so could just point to it.

Thanks. Step 4 is the one I have trouble with. Where do I find this?

There is no step 4.  It's one of the oldest "memes" on the internet.  Just follow steps 1-3, and you should be good to go.

Thanks again. I meant step 3, my bad.  

 

It's no trouble for me to alter an existing texture in photoshop so 1 & 2 are easy.

 

Where do I go to edit race data? Specifically, after changing the colors of the body and face, where do I go to tell Skyrim to assign those to all Bosmer?

Here are some screenshots showing where the current default body (for most of the races, not just the Bosmer) is.  Hopefully, it'll help you figure out what you need to do to create a unique texture set for just the Bosmer.  If you still have questions, please ask.

 

(Make new entries for everything except the actual race data, or everyone is going to look a little sea-sick, rather than just the Bosmer.  ;) )

Alternatively, send me your edited textures, and I'll make a quick-and-dirty mod file for you.  I would prefer to post as a download here on LL, but I'm also willing to PM it if you want to keep things private.

Thanks. I really have no clue with CK (in fact the one I just 'downloaded' from Steam doesn't even open) so if you don't mind helping I can send the textures directly. DDS files I think - just one each for body, face and hands. Will pm with contact tomorrow.

 

I don;t mind sharing with everyone but the base textures are UNP that I've recolored so we probably should ask permission before making generally available?

"IMPORTANT: Guys, do not send PM's to me (dimon99) - I do not have a computer ATM (as pretty much most things) - thanks to hurricane Sandy. Thanks and see ya all later. ALL my mods are now FREE TO MOD,since I am unreacheable."
