Potential skin request for a newbie

Is anyone out there that can help me in my quest to have a more Echani child model? I've been using the pale one, but the black hair is just... Off, so much. I've tried to reskin it... But it comes out looking like a mess.

I wish I was a good modeler and skinner to do things on my own. :cry:

I'm with this guy, I could use a more TOR-Esque Cathar model myself. The Khajiit-looking model, and the similarities of the overworld music of the maps to the overworld music of the Elders Scrolls makes me feel more like I'm playing a Khajiit, rather then a Cathar.

This is similar to how I'm hoping to have a skin, but... As you can see there is a lot of issues with it, around where the hair meets skin. Plus I don't feel the skin is light enough for an Echani.

...There's also the issue of I can't get it to work, at all... So fun there.

But yeah, I don't think the color of the hair and eyes came out terribly...but perhaps there's someone out there that's nice enough to do better and package it in a way that actually works? :mrgreen:

Could you be a bit more specific on the "can't get it to work?" What happens you try to play as that skin in game?

I can't get it to appear in game at all. It doesn't appear in the model selection stuff at all.

Actually, you won't see every model within the model selection list. Since JA wasn't meant to show every model for some reason. You have to just manually put it in. Such like /model nameofmodel

That's how most people who don't have a customizer do it. So I tend to do /Model Aiden2/(one of my variants)

I hope this helped, also put a download link of your skin in your sig for now. If you want people to see it.

Ohh, thanks Aiden, I didn't know that bit.

Now I just need to find out about the resizing bits.

And then I need to wait to be able to upload it, unless someone else would be willing to upload it to the hub for me.

Yeah something will only show on the model list ingame if you have both an Icon and it's set to load first like zzz_zev.pk3.

It wasn't showing in the menu because the icon wasn't named correctly; he just needs to follow proceedure to get himself scaled probably now. :)

And my skin is officially in my signature now that I have everything set up server side for my model size :D
