You don't need to do any of that packaged stuff.
Just rename your DTS file to "m.dts". This will allow it to work with the default avatar system, the Slayer uniform system, and a couple other things.
How does one do this? I'm also working on a player model, i renamed the file to 'm' and i have the text files, DSQs and face and decal folders copied to my player model's folder with
this as the CS file, but my player doesn't have a head
I can unhide the head via console though, but it shouldn't be necessary to have a line of code to unhide the head, so i assume i'm just doing something wrong
