Thanks for the great simple mod. Nice to finally see female Imperial Guards and Soldiers among the males.
I fixed the posted "Stormcloack bug" for myself correcting the one NPC entry that still had incorrect Stormcloak factions/clothing/template as well as removing the "opposite gender animation" setting from all that makes females move about as males. Just overwrite the esp with this one below.
Initially I simply changed the male guards but then ended up with bearded ladies!! I converted Imperial Bandit females. Changed voice tag to female Nord, and edited faces to my liking. Note on voices: For some reason using other voices such as female soldier and female commander I ended up with silent characters so I defaulted to the Nord voice. Then I changed the "Traits" at bottom left of "Template Data" as follows Female Guard = EncGuardImperialTemplate Female Soldiers = EncSoldierImperialTemplate These options appear to automatically update sections such as Inventory, Faction listing etc.. Guards were then copied to LCharGuardImperial and soldiers to LCharSoldierImperial lists. Things I had to watch out for Guards - check Respawn option and uncheck Use Base Data option Soldiers - the reverse, uncheck Respawn option and check Use Base Data option. Finally - you must work within the Actor folder, and I pressed <ctr><F4> on each character every time I touched them, otherwise without fail I ended up with brown faces. Also, for me, the <ctr><F4> did not take effect if I worked from the "All" folder. Trust this helps - I am by no means technically competent and this was a great trial and error process
