David, According to this page (http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Joining_the_Legion), I am only between the 0 and 1 stages of the quest. Do you know how the resetquest console works? Or do I have to wait until the CK comes out to know for sure? Thank you!

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Joining_the_Legion Some quest stage information in here, but not very helpful to me. Maybe I should try clearing out Fort Hraggstad manually, then see if talking to Tullius or Rikke could re-initiate Joining the Legion? Thanks...

Oh and talking to the people in Castle Dour as well as the various Imperial Camps will NOT (re-)initiate the quest...

My fellow Skyrim players of the PC, I am sure many of you know that if you started but not finished Joining the Legion, you cannot let General Tullius agree to negotiate a truce during the main quest. So to get around this, I used console "resetquest CW01A" and then finished the main quest. And now the problem rises: I want to actually join the Legion but the "Joining the Legion" quest is nowhere to be found in the journal. I tried console "setstage CW01A 0 (or 1)" but it doesn't work. So could anyone tell me how to bring back the quest? By the way, I have not cleared out Fort Hraggstad yet. Thanks very much!!!

I was actually having the same problem and eventually gave up.

IT WORKED IN SKYRIM! I want to thank everybody SO SO MUCH!!! Select the NiTriShape then at the bottom of the Block Details window you will see Properties. Click the drop down menu and the Ref that says "none" change to the number of the NiAlphaProperty and it will attach.

This is very detailed... Thank you! I followed every step of what you instructed but the NifSkope is still showing the armor pieces that I painted black in the added layer mask (i.e. alpha channel). Now I think this should be a NifSkope problem. I haven't run it in Skyrim yet so I guess I will report back later...

Thank you very much... I am using NifSkope 1.1.0 RC4, which I believe is the latest version. I tried what you suggested. The NiAlphaProperty did drop to the very bottom of the NiNode stack. But I have no idea how to bring it to the NiTriShape stack! Can you be more specific please? Thank you!!

Thanks everyone for the reply! Now I am having trouble figuring out how to use the alpha channel / transparency in GIMP 2.6.11 (with DDS plugin). It seems that simply erasing stuff from the alpha channel doesn't work, because I can still see the armor parts in NifSkope. What should I do to the alpha channel? I guess I just need a really detailed tutorial on this subject... Thanks again! You need to paint back on the alpha channel to make stuff invisible... otherwise what you are doing is painting a black texture.

Hi all, I want to make the Skyrim glass armor more skimpy. I did some homework on this forum and here's what I did: 1. Convert cuirass.dds to a jpg file. 2. Open that jpg file in Adobe Fireworks, insert several pure-black polygons to cover the armor parts I want to hide. 3. Save the file as a png file. 4. Use DDS converter 2.1 to convert the png file to dds. 5. Put the file in the correct folder. Now, when I open the nif file in nifSkope, the armor parts I want to hide shows up black, instead of being invisible. What did I do wrong here? Thanks!
