2) Open the arcive and navigate to the root folder (It should be the first one, but if not it is the one that has the 'Data' folder inside) 3) Right click and make 'Data' either a.zip or.7z Archive. Name this Archive 'SKSE' or 'Skyrim Script Extender' 4) Keep this window open. Hold the windows key (located between CTRL and ALT) press 'E'. ECEBackup.bat is backup support tool. Copy this file to skyrim folder data, and then run it. Skyrim folder data ECEBackup is created. There is all ECE files in data folder. Type Showracemenu in console command window. Make your character, as usual, as Vanilla. If you finished, name your character, and choose a slot for saving it. I installed ECE but it seems that slotload isn't appearing I had also needed to create my own cmesave folder, does that matter? Owns both Vita/3DS, PS4/XB1 - I come in peace I promise I won't touch you inappropriately. No you can't use ECE slot files with racemenu. What you can do is disable racemenu and get ECE, load the preset, export head with F1, deactivate ECE, reactivate racemenu, go to the sculpt tab and import the head.

Setting the body slot in Skyrim

Skyrim Ece Slot Data Modeler

In Skyrim you need to set the body slot used by a piece or armour in two places:

• In the Dismemberment data of the nif file
• In the Armor addon and Armor items in the Creation Kit

IMPORTANT: The body slot you set in the nif file and in the CK must be the same, or your armour will be invisible in game.

Required tools

• Nifskope: latest NifSkope version.
• Creation Kit: available on Steam (Menu option View -> Tools and then select Creation Kit)

Setting the body slot in the nif file

1. Load the mesh into NifSkope
2. Select the BSDismemberSkinInstance node of one of the NiTriShape nodes of your armour as shown in picture Adjusting the dismemberment data.
3. In the Block details section expand the Partitions property.
4. Expand the second Partitions property.
   1. Make sure that the Part Flag property has bloth flags selected: PF_EDITOR_VISIBLE and PF_START_NET_BONESET. If not, double click and select both flags from the drop down list.
   2. The Body Part property will contain one or more of the body parts ypu've created in Blender (BP_TORSO, BP_LEFTLEG or BP_RIGHTARM). Double click on these values and change them to:
   3. From BP_TORSO to 32
   4. From BP_RIGHTARM to 34

For armour covering the body you usually will select 32-Body, 34-Forearms and 38-Calves. For boots, you will select 37-Feet. Note that the number before the name is the same number you wrote in the Skin partition nodes of the nif file.
