Custom Races and Body Slide - posted in Skyrim Mod Troubleshooting: Hi there. I searched on google and in this forum (key words same as topic) and went through some of the comments, but its just to much. Sorry if this question has been solved before, but maybe someone can answer me: I dont want a custom race (Ashen) race to use an individual body that has been delivered with the race-mod. RaceCompatibility for Skyrim and Dawnguard, which I haven't seen posted yet and is usually required by some custom race mods. Custom Races is an alternative if you still want Vanilla racial powers, but want your PC to still have custom meshes and textures without changing NCPs.

This is my first time making a mod for TES. I want to create my own custom race for Skyrim. I've scoured the internet for a tutorial or any information on the topic, but the best thing I've found is the page on the creation kit wiki about creating a playable race. It covers the basics of implementation, but does not cover how exactly the race mesh is put together in the game, etc. I also found the page entitled 'Race' which has some information on what data is used for races but it doesn't go into any detail. The information I am missing is:
- How are character meshes set up? Are body parts modular? I assume that when you equip boots on your character the foot meshes are replaced with the boot meshes, but how is this set up within the character model file? Are they just separated meshes? Is there something I need to do to allow the game to recognize certain mesh sections?
- Is armor assigned to the character via the skeleton? i.e. do boots get assigned to feet in relation to the foot joints?
- What sort of special set up for armor would I have to do with my character mesh if I make a completely custom character model? For example, making sure helms fit over the head. How do you test armor on the character mesh?
- How does face deformation in character creation in game work technically? What do I need to do with my mesh to prepare it for customization?
- How do I include custom hair, skin patterns, etc.?
- I've seen many sites that talk about using nifskope to edit meshes, but apparently it does it with .obj's. Since obj's are geometry-only files, how do you bind the mesh to an existing Skyrim skeleton?
- How do I set up my new race to show up and be used in the game?
I'm plenty proficient on the art side so I've got that part covered. I'm planning on using the argonian race as a starting point, then heavily editing it. I would greatly appreciate any advice you have to offer!
