Shadowtroop

well thats weird. i thought it had something to do with the skinning of the model but if its happening with a static model it must be something else

Bump, i would really like someones input. the only thing stopping me from releasing some mods is these darn shadows looking so funky

Hello, ive been working on some armor sets and i keep runing into funky shadows with my models http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/9975/tesv2012030717085919.png this only seems to happen outside, indoors the shadows on the body look just fine. anyone have any experience withthese kinds of problems?

Hello im trying to make some ground objects for my armor set but i am at a snag, im not sure how to work them in the hierarchy in nifskope. when i try to load it in the creation kit i just get an unpleseant crash. can anyone share how to create a ground object?

yeah my bad i thought it stood for global object.

i am talking about objects like armor that are on the ground or the mesh that you see in the menu

Hello, i need some help making global objects for my armor set. i took a look at the world object meshes in nifskope and they seemed to have very similar hierarchy to weapons. so i tried to go about it that way but as soon as i load it up in the creation kit it crashes. is there a tutorial on how to make global objects?

thank you good sir + rep for you

Yes i have made both of those for the base of the armor(torso) and for the cape/boots/gloves. the boots and gloves work great. but when i try the cape it shows up invisible. i tried setting it to different biped object (unamed,calves,head) all resulting in the cape not showing up.

Well the problem im having is that its not even showing up all. i add it in the CK then ill load the game up and it says i have the cape on but it doesn't show up.

Hello i am currently working on an armor set, and the plan is to make a cape with it. Instead of making a set with a cape on, and a set with it off, i want to make it an add-on. i tried a few times with no success in the CK. has anyone had any experience with this?

Thank you for the tips, i just used the 1stperson version and it worked great.

i am using a custom model for my sword btw. does this mean i have to create a new world object for my new model?

Hi, im working on a mod with a grave with loot in it and i want to have a sword sticking out of the ground. i tried to place it this way in the geck but when i load the game it just falls down. is there a way to make the object static?

Hello, i have been working on a pair of gauntlets to go with an upcoming mod and i have run into an issue with the hands clipping http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/5463/gauntletbug.jpg when just walking around with no weapons drawn it looks like the hands are clipping through themselves but when i go in for a closer look, the geometry of the hands is how it should be. anybody have any ideas why this is happening?

Screenshot the export settings? OK i figured out the problem. it was only crashing when i was attaching certain parts to other parts. this is most likely my fault since i am not very good with 3dsmax. i pretty much do all the work in blender then just export it into Max for the skinning and stuff. thanks so much for the tool it has really come in handy

basically after i click on Export on your tool and i select the export settings it stops working and i get a notification saying that 3dsmax has stopped working. i just tried to fiddle with it and it seems to only be crashing with certain parts of the armor. the base of the armor is exporting just fine, but the parts that i made from scratch are causing the problem.

im having errors when exporting the mesh after using your tool. i have 3dsmax 2010 and i have done your previous tutorials and they exported fine.

Hello all, i am currently in the process of making a few mods. i am pretty decent with modeling work but i am completely lacking in the texturing department. i was wondering if anyone had any tips for a newbie texturer. what i am currently working on is a sword with gold/silver textures. http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5792&navtag=file/images.php?id=5792&tab=3 anybody care to share some tutorials/tips on how to make some good looking textures?

im having similar problems to this. i can get the model into the game but it shows up as all black.

anybody having BSOD issues with these drivers? i got one as soon as i tried to play skyrim.

i think that most problems related with Skyrim, AMD cards, and low FPS have to do with having dual gpu setups. i tried it with my 5970 a few times and it did nothing. i do get better frames in windowed mode(crossfire is disabled in windowed mode)

i am so dissapointed in amd dropping the ball with their drivers. so many games have terrible if not negative scaling. i heard that the latest drivers fix some issues but all they do for me are constant BSODs. it pains me to say it but im going Nvidia next time.

Yup i know the feeling. i was so accustomed to playing the game the way i liked it. Now they take that away from me :(. good thing i have plenty of games to catch up with :D

i think im having the same problem as you, i tried to get rid of the mouse acceleration with no avail. and that reinstallation i did, didnt work :/ I think im going to take a break from this game until these problems are fixed
