Making a new custom playable race? I'm lost.

Post » Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:27 am

Okay, so...I'm feeling like a total noob here, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to add a custom body texture to a new playable race (example: I just want this one race to sport this body texture only....instead, of say, all Dunmer sporting it universally).
I can create a new race in the CK fine and dandy, but adding a new/custom body texture to it (one with a body tattoo I whipped together recently) is out of my knowledgeable grasp, it seems.

I guess I was expecting the CK to be exactly like Morrowind's and Oblivions tools, as far as creating new races goes, but nope. Everything is changed around, and I've looked online for tutorials on how to do this, since it seems extremely simple enough to do (as it was in TESIII and IV's kits), but I'm failing hard. I don't know where to look in the CK when it comes to adding this in. The Race editor boxes don't seem to have anything related to accomplishing this, like there was in the past kits..

So...anyone wanna help me out here? Maybe quick step by step instructions on how to add a custom body texture to my new race??

I feel derpy enough asking for help as it is on this, but I don't want to play Skyrim until my new race is finished. D:


Edit: Never mind. Figured it out. Found this on Nexus, in case anyone else is stumped on this: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/555227-give-different-body-textures-to-a-custom-race/
