BTW,... you should delete those AA for armors and body they make the briarhearts invisible,.. and just edit your race to barrow an armorrace,.. put nordrace so it'll be no problem with some other armor mods
How did you make it so that your character is still recognized as a Nord? This was the only custom race mod with a custom Nord that I could find that would actually do this. All the other ones I have tried my PC is referred to as an outsider. Unfortunately after using this mod for quite sometime, it now causes CTDs and is impossible to use.
just edit every comment adding the condition "getPCisrace" and set the second field to your race like "customnordrace" or something, then puts "==" in the correlating coeficient and 1 in the variable value.
@shockwave171, Could you please elaborate? I'm trying to make a custom, vanilla-based race become recognized as the race it is based upon. However, due to the fact that I don't have much experience in the Creation Kit, I don't know where to go in order to, as you say, edit every comment. Thanks in advance for your help! I know this post is old, but I would still appreciate a hand.
To everyone having the "Invisible Armor & Body" problem, like I was--I found out how to fix it through reading and searching in forum. This fix assumes you are using "Independant PC Race - for Raestlozs PC Exclusive Animation Path by Mugg" mod.
Just switching your ArmorRace does not work. You'll end up, more than likely, with an invisible body, or it simply will do nothing. It takes a few more steps to make it work right.
1.1-Back up your "PlayerIsNordaceCustom.esp" file, then open and activate it in the CK.
-Go down to the ArmorAddon list which is under Items.And find:
Open it. You'll see under "Additional Races" and check "CustomNord"+"Nord" if not checked. This is why Armor & Body will not show up. For each part , make sure to also select the vanilla race which corresponds to whatever race the custom race is, including its vampire form. Hit okay. 2.1 Next, go to the "Race" section under the character list. Find "NordRaceCustom", open it, and change the "ArmorRace" option from "NONE" to "NordRace". Make sure "Morph Data" is also "NordRace". Hit okay. Save.
3.1Test it in game. If you borked something, or it didn't work for you, restore your back up.
This work for me, also fix "BodyChange" i love that mod i have to give credit for part of this info to AH1 original post here:http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/757287-invisible-jewlery-on-custom-races/
I would like to play as a male with Requiem and have a custom appearence, but I would also like to keep all the features of Requiem's races and have custom animation. Will this mod let me use PC Exclusive Animation Path and keep features of the race I choose?
Would this by any chance have an effect on my custom armors not displaying on my character only? Does it modify the armor path as well? Sorry if I overlooked something in your description..
EDIT: Nevermind, I just used the CustomRaceMod, albeit being more difficult to work with it does the job.
Currently, I myself am using PCEA 3.0.1 and PCEAr together. :/
Of course, I'm not using this particular mod. The problem with PCEA is the fact that it requires a custom race, and of course most don't like it because it "breaks the lore" or "not Skyrim-y enough". A mod called "Custom Races"have duplicated all the races, creating a "Custom Nord" (and other races) for selection during character creation, essentially alleviating the issue.
Which is why I don't really understand the point of this mod. I'm not bashing this mod by the way, I'm just saying that there are alternatives that essentially addresses this mod's goal relative to PCEA.
As far as I know, PCEA and PCEAr don't conflict by virtue of modifying different stuff with different methods. PCEA modifies the races themselves, PCEAr adds a scripted function that disregards races.
That's why I said you don't need to support PCEAr so much as ignore it, because no matter what happens, PCEAr will only work on PC
EDIT: By the way, looking back at the description, Custom Races seem to address exactly the same issue with exactly the same approach: make a custom version of vanilla races. I myself am using Ashen race, so I know that PCEAr will work with custom races (again, because PCEAr looks for the PC itself, not for specific races)
