...I'm using the following tutorial to try and make the SnowElfRace from the Dawnguard DLC playable
http://www.creationkit.com/Tutorial_Creating_a_Playable_Race
Now I went through it a couple times trying to find when the problem occurs, turns out as soon as I duplicate the SnowElfRace... changing nothing but the editor id and saving it as a new object, the body disappears in the preview window.
I know that setting the Armor Morph to High Elf allows armor to appear in game, but if I take off all the armor the character body turns invisible.
The only reason I could think of that this might be happening would be because the SnowElfRace uses a unique "naked" body, but I'm not sure how to go about attaching that to the duplicated race.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Reproduction Steps
1. Open Creation Kit
2. Open Data files for Skyrim, Updates, and Dawnguard
3. Navigate to Character - Race
4. Select SnowElfRace check the "Full" preview checkbox
5. Change the Editor ID (I changed it to SnowElfRacePlayable) click ok, save as new object.
6. Open the new object, click the "Full" preview checkbox
