I haven't ported to SSE the wig that changes colour with the player's character, as the scripts require SKSE and, as far as I know, it is not yet available for SSE.
Oh, thank God you put this armor on the SE version. Finally switched over now that they got SKSE working, and my character LIVES in this armor!! There is no better female armor out there in my book, and I have a lot of (mostly unused) armor mods. It is so badass yet feminine and is sexy enough to not have to go skimpy. LOVE THE BLACK AND SILVER! Love all your stuff! I've also got Victoria in Dragonsreach thanks to you! Elven Archer armor is bomb too. Thank you for all your hard work! Btw, SKSE is def on SE now! Good times!
Thank you for creating a heavy armor that's feminine and pretty. I prefer wearing heavy armor but it's hard to find something that doesn't look like it was obviously designed for men.
First off love the mod! Secondly I've never really messed around in the CK much but i was wondering how much changing the bodyslot of the chainmail bodysuit to something more rarely used would bork eveything? It works so well with Hmm What to wear but it uses the body torso slot and I was trying to get it to work underneath clothing, but still be able to equip and unequip it. Do you think it would break anything just switching the slot?
1st edit: Switching all four bodysuits to slot 60 in armor and armor addon as well changing the nifskope body part value to 60 resulted in an armor that could be worn under clothing but it was glitched through the skin in places, which was kind of odd. Replacing the original nifs and setting everything back to slot 32 made them normal again. Any idea why they would glitch through the skin like that? I didn't edit the nif in any way except the bodyslot.
2nd edit: Switching everything to slot 35 had the exact same result as slot 60. a pretty uniform amount of glitching with the skin, which changes as weight values are changed, but never fully unglitches. switched all values back to 32 and once again it is working perfectly.
3rd edit: so i'm an idiot and the issue is to many bodies, i'm assuming the chainmail bodysuit mesh is just a body texture because it incompasses the entire body I cannot remove the branch of the body from it, which means to do what I wanted to would require editing every outfit in the game, which would be no fun.
love your mods though, sorry to hear you're not playing anymore
The problem with the items that use the body slot, is that they include the body in the mesh. So, if you use another slot for them, and equip them on your character, your character will end up "having" two bodies: her body + the one included in this mod. That would happen, too, if you change the slot of an item that uses the hands slot or the feet slot.
It is safe to change the slot of any other items as they don't include parts of the body
For another item, I would tell you to delete the body node of the mesh in NifSkope, but, for the chainmail that woun't work as it is actually a body painted with a different texture, so you would be eliminating the whole chainmail when doing this!
I have now begun work trying to paint the actual body under a different set of armor using your chainmail.nifs and textures as guides, i've gone from glitchy textures at the skin, to no skin at all, to completely invisible skin, and now for some reason the skin is a nice dinner mint green! It is no longer glitchy though so i feel like I am making progress! Also the chainmail texture shows up on the body inside nifskope for some reason on my mesh whereas on your KnightChainMailBodySuit_1.nif the model appears white.
I'm working with the dragonscale armor from UNP Spice Armor and it's textures are white inside nifskope but the chainmail under it has your textures, i'm doing alot of google fu though and I feel like i'm making some progress toward what I want.
Not sure if this is a conflict with other mods, but with the whole armour set, the Straps (The ones around the waist) keep on un-equipping themselves. Do you know if this is an issue with the mod? Other than that though, I love the armour set and it works well with my current characters general theme. Great work
Are you equipping any other items after putting all of the armor on? The Straps use Body Slot 60 so equipping any other item that uses body slot 60 will unequip the straps.
After a little testing, it happens whenever I draw my weapon (Currently a Scythe added through a mod). Afterwards, I tried it out with vanilla weapons and even spells. It only ever occurs whenever I unsheate a weapon/spell.

Shouldn't elven armors be light instead of heavy?
