I'm trying to retexture one of the fur armor variants (the one that is just the kilt and leaves the upperbody bare) but I can't seem to find the texture for it. I did find that the standard full body fur armor is found in clothes/bandit/ but I do not see a seperate file for the variant. I tried to find it through the CK but that only led to more confusion as it seems that the texture is simply shared for all variants. Would the way to handle this be retexture the whole armor and then only apply the change to mesh variant I want? Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, the same texture is used for every version.

To get yours to be standalone, alter the texture but save as a different name and different location, then apply the texture via nifskope, and manually add it to the game as a mesh replacer or its own armor.

Alright thanks for the help!

One other question, I remember having having to do a "hack" sort of thing in order to create the first person, ground, and 3rd person mesh data for custom meshes. Does that exist or does the CK do that for you now?
