I decided to play around and I extracted the Giant Textures and Meshes. I then ran Creation kit and copied the Giant race to a GiantZZZ Race. The Preview panel does not display the body. As such any actor givene the race wont show up in the game. I looked at the Original Giant race and the one I copied and they are the same. I looked at the Body data and two of the three files there exist but the third never gets extracted from any of the BSA files?

The three files are

Actors\Giant\Character Assets\skeleton.nif

Actors\Giant\GiantProject.hkx

Actors\Character\UpperBodyHumanMale.egt

The Third is non existent?

I am not sure if this is why the body wont show or if there is some other cause? perhaps I am missing something here....

PLEASE HELP

Same issue??

(already in Bugs Thread, if it is)

On your race form - General Data tab there is a Copied Data section in the bottom right, you need to set the Morph Race field to Giant.

This is the same for any race you create, set the field to something close to what you want.

The original vanila races must be hard coded or something as they dont have anything in that field.

I'm having this problem too, I duplicated the AtronachFrost race and I ONLY gave it a swim and combat in water tag. Showed no preview. I've set morph race (and armor race) to frostatronach.. but still no preview.


Correction now it does show (no idea why it too some minutes, probably says something about my comp.)

This worked! Do not know why ??? LOL Thank you for taking the time to help.
