[Request] Nocturnal CBBE Sleeveless and Shorter

[Lestroisrois]

Greetings.  I've come to make a request, as nothing I've tried seems to succeed for me.

 

There is a mesh and texture replacer for nocturnal's robes from Oldrim I am trying to convert for personal use to SE.  The original file can be found here.  What I want (and have failed at myself) is to convert the short version to SSE, specifically for CBBE Bodyslide compatibility (and if somehow possible physics compatibility as well, though that's a secondary desire).  I'm not a fan of the llong sleeves in vanilla, as while they look passable in Nocturnal's floating pose, in any other position they are awful, similar applying to the long front and back.  Here is a list of the things I've tried:

• I've attempted updating the NIF via the NIF Optimizer program, installing via NMM after converting to a compressed file.
• I've tried opening the various meshes and textures in Bodyslide's Outfit Studio; while the Torso 0 NIF works fine when loaded with the texture Outfiff.dds, trying to load any other combination of the files leads to the problems I've listed below.  Due to both my inexperience with Bodyslide/Outfit Studio and modding in general, I've been very limited in what adjustments I've applied and probably still did something wrong.
• I've disabled all mods with the exception of XPMSE, CBBE, the mod that adds the item as craftable and usable (link below), Papyrus Util SE, SkyUi, and USSEP, but the problem is still there.

I can get into game fine, but as soon as I try to equip the robes (which I enabled as a craftable item via this mod here), the sleeves reappear in blue, the bottom of the robe doing the same below the white shorter texture, and the top of my tail's base (I play an argonian) seemingly loses its texture and becomes see-through.  The bottom, sides, and rest of the tail retain their visibility.  Finally, the outfit does not retain its transparency (I am using SKSESE 64 and PapyrusUtil SE).

My google-fu has failed me with finding a way to fix this problem, and as such I turn to you all for help.  I've included the versions of the files I've NIF Optimized and formatted for replacing the Nocturnal Clothes (the original replaced other armors only for some reason) attached to this post.  While I would prefer someone else fixing it for me (why it's a request), any help would be appreciated.  To those willing to go that extra step and fix it for me, if you might also consider changing the outfit's color from transparent white to transparent dark blue and/or transparent black, I'd be even more grateful (I hope I'm not asking too much).

 

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to lend their aid.
