if the textures are in a .bsa u need to extract the textures, .dds files have standard names like femalebody femalehands, femalehead , but sometimes the author may name them something else and they usually have 4 of each .dds,.msn, .sk, .s or .nHow would I change the body textures of NPCs in a mod that use their own assets, to use my textures?
You can check the body mesh to see if the mod is using either cbbe or unp based textures. if the names for example in the textures you want to add are like femalebody1.dds, are shown in mod as body.dds,.sk,.s or .n, the textures you add have to be renamed to that or whatever the mod author named them, they all end in .dds,.msn,.sk, .s or .n. There are tutorials with a more detailed explanation and step by step breakdown on what you need to do, in case i didn't explain that correctly,but that in most cases, is the gist of it. Head textures can be problematic sometimes, as the author may have created a custom texture blend and use a High poly head, so when you change the textures the body color and head might be a little off. you have to look online to see how to change HPH textures, I usually leave those alone.
