[LE] Need help converting OBJ and MTL for use in Skyrim

[anathemastudio]

Hi guys :)

I'm a noob to creating 3D assets, and am working with someone to create a sword for a mod in Skyrim. They have created the perfect sword for our mod, but I know Skyrim uses NIF and DDS, and these files are OBJ and MTL.

 

Can someone help me with how to convert these? I'm more of a quest/dialogue person lol. :)

 

I've uploaded the files in case you need to see them.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

Hmm it doesn't appear to be letting me upload the files, they're in a compressed RAR file right now, maybe that's why.

Would this be a good way to go?

Yes, using Outfit Studio you can import .Obj and Export as .Nif . For the textures you can use Gimp: https://www.gimp.org/ which has a built in .dds plugin

hello, i don't know if anyone will respond, but ive been at it for hours trying to figure out how to convert the .obj and .mtl files for the models in the KO Recourse - Subrace Head Morphs file for the Khajiit Overhaul mod. converting the .obj files is one thing (that i couldn't figure out, tho i know i can do it using Bodyslide & Outfit Studio), but i cannot (for the love of Talos) convert the .mtl files !!! i tried using Gimp—i even tried to download the dds plugin seperately (tutorial i used), and it simply wouldnt work ):
