If you refer back to my post earlier, you will see that I did mention the fact that an nif is different than a bfm. That could very easily be part of the problem.

But, as a general word of advice: If you are going to try and do something that no one has ever done before, you are simply going to have to expect that we aren't going to be ablt to give you much help.

Yes, I got that, but it also doesn't make sense to me how you think that could work. Animals and ambients have different coding, you can't just substitue one for the other as we'd have all these millions of adoptable ambients all over the place.

okay, what file controls the location when you select an animal you have bought, on the menu that tells its family tree, endangerment, location, gender, etc?

okay, new problem:

i made a zebra cichlid out of the koi, and it works fine, but the variants do not. it is an adoptable ambient (koi like).

how do i make the variants work?

Variant coding for objects is in the ai file. The koi should already have a few coded though. If you need more specific code help, just say and I will try and get some :)

Yeah, the name at the beginning of each materials file. it will say something like name="Koi_Adult_F" and you need to change Koi to your codename
