Hi.

Where I am at. Trying to build a new (not copying and then editing) character/race. Please bear with me for the real question.
Tried to alter imperial head in blender and use, that was a no go, could not find a way to produce other files required. Now using Cute_elves head which I have altered.
Am using a body replacer by PSG ( only have female, but a good athletic build. Apparently not yet finidhed ) and started with an Ice something? Texture, which I am re-painting/texturing.
Looks ok (I think) when naked or custom clothed, but when donning clothes ingame, wrist and hand are huge etc or upperbody no longer matches. Heres the question.. How do I alter that? Do all ingame armour have body already installed?
Is there a way too fool it too accept what I want to use?

Naked shot guess you should be over 18 ? Psg body replacement, retextured/painted (getting there - redoing tatoos soon) Ingame armour on. Bulky as hell, wrists and hands out of kilter. Custom clothes looks good, apart from (bad screenshot) hands are huge and obviously ingame dds/nif (Im clueless). Need help. Would like to do some good mods (unless... constructive critiscm welcome......you dont think I could cut the grade.)
Anyone out there do modding. Would like to point me towards a decent tutorial (really hate reading through lots of text though), or give some hints.

Have you installed a deafult clothing replacer to match the body? guessing HGEC, because Nehrim by default uses the ones for te crappy default body ( minus a few armors and custom clothisn that use RM/HGEC or exem) they will look stupid because the UV maps will be different.

Install a clothign replacer like HGEC or what ever body mod your using and they will match.

Hi.

Thanks for the input.

Have tried a couple of armour/clothes replacements and yep they change the armour/clothes and the body underneath. With HGEC, boom, my character has big tits but the wrist to hand is still out, see FemaleSarc_02 ( by the way, no disrespect 'cause the graphics and art is great but i.e HG stock replacement. Armour! what armour? Couple of pieces of tin held together by string!)
I am using someones body replacer called PSG base_nude body replacer. The body is slender so are the wrists.
I really want to be able to match it all together. Is the only way to learn Blender or such and replace the body underneath? Is there an easier way?

Thats the problem you realy need to convert them exactly to fit ( sorry was thinking PSG body was based on HGEC, its UV proberly is if the skin is good but model is not). So you will have to goto blender and remesh the body mesh with the PSG mesh, if no converstion exists.

Depnding how close the body size is to the source mesh of the cloths and armor is/ how much skin is showing will make it more difficult. if its basicly the same just more slender wrists should be pretty easy with some basic mesh snipping.

Blender itself Looks very mind boggling to learn basic stuff like that but actualy quite intuative once you get the basics ( not long learned to do stuff like taht myself).

In all honesty though I would try to use a more commen and finish body mod like HGEC or roberts female, basicly one were converrted base clothes and armors exist, you will save yourselve ALOT of headache in total.

HGEC is nice because there is alot of variations like fighters but the midrift is alittle skinny tbh, TGND is a more natural variation and default clothing exists for it but only comes in quite small breast cup size, and Roberts Female is less popular then HGEC and uses a way different UV map for body textures but still has quite a few hard core followers that convert HEC released armor to i and the default convertions exist I believe.

Hi.

Thanks for the info.
I think too much work modding all ingame clothes too fit this body replacer. Although just checked out Exnems/HGEC/TFF and Growlfs and this PSG was the only one I really liked ... but unfinished and no male replacer.
Might get into looking at Blender and making armour/clothes fit at a later date. For now messed about with too many replacers and mods. Going to totally reinstall and try Babs stuff. Textures do not look great, but found a total mod with armour and clothes replacements. Start another race/character from fresh. Shame since just spent a week retexturing and painting last one.
Well all part of the learning process.
