"so I tried using the scale tool, but it scales to the middle." This is the most important part of the post. Basically when I scale something, even it I just select an edge, it will scale it as if it was scaling the whole model from it's very centre. So if you have a rectangle (as I said before), the sides are obviously going to be closer to the centre of the grid than the front and back. And so if I wanted all the edges to meet at the centre, the front and back would have to be scaled more, therefore creating overlapping meshes. If you imagine a sword with fancy curves, all the edges are chamfered equally. As opposed to some edges being chamfered more than others since they're at different points in relation to the centre. This is a great example of what I'm trying to create: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=sword+blade&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAWoVChMIy5jhvc6SyAIVkjweCh1KhwlF&biw=1366&bih=659#imgrc=zB1yZXBmp8Zo2M%3A

So... There's no hope? Will Bethesda never get their s*** together. Cause so far they left 3 games filled with bugs and glitches that seriously break the game. Will I just have to never visit whiterun and choose another city to do my grocieries?

I never had a Merchant mod.

So I haven't touched a single NPC in my entire life, unless it was quest business. Anyway had a s#*! ton of potions to sell, and I kept coming back and forth between the Jarl's mage and Arcadia (Whiterun). I eventually leveled up so I decided to get the perk that allows you to sell anything to anyone. And so I went to Belethor since he would have a s#*! ton of money by now, considering I haven't visited him ever since I finished all the quests in Whiterun. Except for the bounties of course. But when i came to his store, it was locked. I forgot there was a back door so I waited until 9AM... It was still closed. Then I went to the back door and unlocked it.... there was no one inside except for my followers! I did a little searching and found a command to teleport myself to him. I went to a save when he was still there, clicked on him while the command console was open, returned to the newest save, and teleported to him. I arrived at a purple/green ancient nord style tunnel with 2 empty coffins glitched into eachother, a huge pile of dead nude bodies in the middle, 4 empty holes at the end of each corridors that lead me to fall and I needed to use "tcl". There was also a living guy standing ther with just your average "I'm a person and I can talk when you press E on me" speech. I can't remember the name, but I remember he was a Dark Elf. Among the pile were all the guys I killed at Markarth, which were basically the crazy Forsworn residents I met in a quest. And there was of course good old Belethor, lying right on the top of the teleporting naked guys' orgy. (I'll be shocked if anyone gets that reference) I've heard about this place and saw it in a video about creppy easter eggs in Skyrim. And also in some other posts and topics on other Skyrim related sites with people having the same exact issue with the same exact guy. Anyway I just decided to go back to the newest save, and resurrect him (I did this both ways. First resurrect him, and resurrect him after I spawned him. Just to be sure. I did the second one after restarting the save again). After he was back at his store, there was no option for him to show me what he has for sale. I've tried EVERYTHING everyone else suggested to eachother. Which hasn't worked for them either. I reset his AI, changed his friendlyness towards me, set him as the owner, etc. The only thing I haven't yet tried is messing around the editor with his "shop chest"? or something.... I didn't understand any of what the guy was saying to the topic started. Mainly because I had no idea if he was talking about the CK or something else, and where I would find that chest or something to set him back as the owner, instead of a command... But as I said before, nothing worked! D;> SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!! D;> The only NPC in the game that seems real, by telling his jokes and reacting to them, by knowing they were inappropriate, and stuff. Is unable to trade with me. Just becaue the decided to make him disappear and appear in the waiting room to Oblivion. Also there wasn't ever a single dragon attacking any of the cities. Since i immidiately killed them with the command before they killed anyone. And just in case Belethor ever went outside (I mean I saw a little kid from Whiterun, walking outside the walls. So who knows.), I did the same, and Thus Ro Dahed their bodies away from the cities, revived them, and thought them normally. PLEASE HELP! I DON'T WANT A RETARDED BELETHOR THAT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO DO HIS JOB!!!! D;>

Thank you. :D

I made a new WorldSpace in the CK, and named it Stinjunaar. How do I teleport to it in order to see how big it is, and how big the hills are. I already tried the coc command in many ways. I typed the name, I typed the reference ID of a specific region, and I typed 1 one after the name (Stinjunaar1). I was told to do the last one in a youtube video. Please help me.

So I want to make a mod similar to Falskaar, and need people's help deciding what the world is gonna look like. I've made 24 quick sketches with rivers, and what I would like people to do (especially if you're skilled in digital art and have photoshop), is combine them, fix up the the points where the sketches are looping over eachother, fix up the rivers if need be. And submit the final result. Your name and/or username will be featured in the credits, when I finish the mod, test it, and upload it onto Nexus. Unless you don't want to of course, in which case you can just let me know under the submitted result. Cheers. :smile: P.S. Is there any way I can keep people updated here (on Nexus) on the progress? Without having to keep bumping a single thread, or creating millions of threads for every single update? You can obviously rotate each sketch as much as you want, you can also stretch them. Do whatever you want. Just make sure you combine at least 3 since I want to make quite a big map. Here are the images: http://imgur.com/LKISn06 http://imgur.com/7FoIvmU P.P.S. The first one on http://imgur.com/7FoIvmU was my attempt at making the maps really realistic, so ignore the spiky tip. It was meant to represent a rocky cliff.

Wait, your PC sometimes shakes?! I'm sensing demon activity.

I how no idea what happened. I don't have any DLC, and I disabled 2 mods I downloaded recently. One just changed the dragon's skeleton texture, and the other improved the shouts. I was going to a quest and passed the place where a Hagraven lives, then I was next to the shout wall (which I cleared btw). And suddenly I started hearing the distant dragon roar, and after a while I was being circled by 2 dragons. One just kept circuling and eventually flew away into the distance, while the other engaged me. After killing him, he just lied there. And nothing, he didn't burn, and I could still loot him, but he didn't burn. I even tried starting Skyrim with the normal launcher and not the SKSE one. But still the same thing. And the strangest thing is, I can resurrect it and kill it with the commands. But I can't disable and enable it. P.S. It was a Blood Dragon. Someone please tell me what to do! D:

Thank you. :D

I know there's one. But I would really just like to play with 1 friend, and see what they see. As opposed to playing with whoever is also using the mod and seeing them as naked, unanimated characters. So basically I want to know if there's a mod that will allow me to create a private server and see other people as they would see themselves.

I have an extruded shape for an axe handle, and I want to chamfer all the edges equaly. I don't know much about chamfering in Blender, so I tried using the scale tool, but it scales to the middle. So let's say you had a simple rectanglular cuboid, you selected all the edges on the top face and used scale. The top and bottom edges would basically be scaled way more than the side edges, since the top and bottom edges are further from the middle than the side ones. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance. :smile:

.................................. Okkkeeeyyyyy................................................. I am officially a Retard! Sorry to everyone that clicked on this topic and wasted their precious time reading it, I'm really sorry. I completely forgot I set the plane to "wire" in the display so I could see through it. But there is a bit of sense in my mistake. I mean I've been outlining it for over 8 HOURS, don't tell me you wouldn't forget you set it to wire. xD Someone please ban me for my stupidity jk, don't actually ban me. :3

Please someone!!! D; I've made a plane and added vertices to the edges, and transformed that in edit mode to outline the axe. And I've spent over 8 hours outlining it! But when I was done and went back into object mode, there were only the verticies. There's not f****** way I'm doing that again! So someone please help me! :(

So I've started working on a set of swords and axes for Skyrim (18 in total) and I've finished outlining the first one from the reference image. I tried to fill it in, and it sort of works. What happens is a transparent orange face appears as if you have selected a face, but when I go into object view, it disappears and nothing it there. To be honest, I've worked with Blender for a long time. But the fill tool/option really gets on my nerves. I have no idea if there's a shortcut for a menu of something (like there is for a menu of every single thing), and I've barely needed to use the fill tool/option. Please help, I'm gonna have to make 17 more so I REALLY NEED to get this sorted and understand how to proparly use the fill tool/option. Thanks in advance. :)

Thank you so much. :D

So I've been getting into modding for skyrim, and I finally figured out how to make my own models. But when I opened the .nif file for the iron sword (longsword.nif), I immidiately noticed like a stick attached to a ring that was stuck into the sword. So I googled "skyrim iron sword", and in every image I see, it's not there. Like wtf is it? Can someone please explain it to me? I want to also add a screenshot, but it keeps saying "This upload failed", and the image is barely 57KB.

Just watched a couple tutorials, and realised I don't even need to import or export the .nif files. Since I can just export the mesh within NifSkope as .obj. Then edit, save it as .obj and put that back into NifSkope. Why did noone say anything? Cause like 27 people viewed this.

I'm working with skyrim and I'm using Blender 2.75 alpha (newest).

I know the only way to get your models into the game is to export models as .nif files, and since there are literally millions of mods adding different items into the game, there are also millions of people asking the question. But for some reason, I am unable to find ANYTHING on this topic. :sad: So how would I import nif files, and export my own files in the .nif extention? Thanks in advance. :smile:

Thank you so much. :) Also the spoilers just made my day, probably even my week. I laughest so hard the more there was, this was even greater than "The Stanley Parable" and "There Is No Game". Thank you so much for the spoils! And the Thumbs Up of Victory! :D

First of all, which is better (easier and quicker) to make fairly simple sword and blade models, Blender or 3Ds Max? Next, while creating the models how would I scale them to be equal with the in-game world and other items? I've made many models and model attempts in the past, but I've never actually made models to use in games or for games, so I don't have a single bit of understanding when it comes to scaling. And lastly, Once I've got a model completed, how would I assign it to my item in the CK? Thanks in advance. :smile:

Thank you. :)

"I just can't figure out a good design" is the clue. I want to model them.

I recently installed a mod called "Sword of the Ancient Tongues", link below. And I really want an armor and a shield that fits with it, but no matter how hard I try I just can't figure out a good design. How do you guys do it? http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52700/?
