So I downloaded SureAI's total conversion esm and esp, (mainly just to mess around, whether something will come of it or not IDK) and I wanted to edit the Nord race's height, but everytime I hit Ok and open it back up it reverts to the original height. I haven't tried it with the other races, but I imagine the same would happen. How do I fix this?


Just an FYI: I've been on the forums for close 5 years, but I wanted a new alias

Er ... which total conversion? There isn't one based on Skyrim's engine so this has nothing to do with Skyrim CK.

If you mean Nehrim, based off of Oblivion's engine, you can't just edit an esm in the CS. You'll have to create your own esp mod with the race changes you want.

The blank esm SureAI released for Skyrim, but my problem is editing the race height.

EDIT: And I'm making an esp that will be merged with the ESM

Oh, ok. Well you still probably won't get help on modding a total conversion here, you're best to go ask on the SureAI forums.

Well the only trouble I'm having is editing race heights. They keep going back to the normal height after I hit ok, and I don't know why.

Are you trying to adjust the height of every NPC in the game? Like ALL of the orcs?

Yes, I want to edit the height of the race.

Help?

Can you make other changes? Did you install the files in Program Files? It sounds like you're running into a UAC issue that won't allow saves.

Huh, no I can't make other changes. I'm sure the CK and everything is installed correctly... How can I fix this?

Any ideas?

Are you trying to change the .esm? You can't. You can make an .esp to go with it though.

I made an .esp to go with it, so IDK why it's being so weird. I even have it set as the active file in the CK.
