SSE Import/Export Skyrim LE & SE meshes directly from Blender

[BadPup]

I've just finished V1 of a Blender Import/Export tool that supports Skyrim LE & SE and Fallout 4. Yes, you can import from SE and export to LE and it just works.

https://github.com/B...yNifly/releases

Features

• 
  
• Supports FO4, Skyrim LE, Skyrim SE. Import from one game and export to another with minimal twiddling (bone weights, partitions, shape keys).
  
• Handles tris and base mesh in one step. No need to separate UV seams or triangulate before exporting
  
• Handles expression and chargen tri files for Skyrim and FO4
  
• Import tris into an existing mesh or on their own
  
• Supports Bodyslide tri files on import and export for body morphs
  
• Handles multiple bodyweights in one step. Export _0 and _1 armor weights for Skyrim from a single mesh.
  
• Handles Skyrim and FO4 partitions and also FO4 segments
  
• Handles skinned and unskinned meshes correctly. Exports head parts to SE correctly.
  
• Handles shaders correctly. Set them up in Blender and export.
  
• Import-and-forget. What you import will behave correctly on export without fiddling.
  
•

This might be exactly what I'm looking for! I have some armor meshes that I'd like to edit in Blender (just tiny edits--no changes to the UV mapping or weighting or anything), but I have no knowledge about getting the mesh into Blender and then out of Blender, then getting the mesh into the game. I came to the forum specifically to find out how to do what I mentioned above.

Thanks a lot for this. It's working well and makes more complicated edits easier to do.

Nice,

 

blender 2.93.4(LTS)

Gave it a quick test.

Worked very good.

 

Thanks for the tool

Ugh. Decided to try this out. I use Blender 2.78 and I'm getting a Traceback (more recent call last) error. It says SyntaxError: Invalid Syntax.

 

"C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.78\Scripts\Modules\addon_utils.py" , line 330, in enable mod = __import__(module name)

"C:\Users\my name\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.78\Scripts\addons\io_scene_nifly\__init__.py", line 36 log.info(f"Loading pynifly version {bl_info['version'][0]}.{bl_info['version'][2]}")

 

Oh, God, that was agonizing to type out and hopefully I didn't make a mistake. I know nothing about python or dealing with the console or how to copy error messages. Please forgive my noobishness. Would love some help.

DUDE THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUU. I didn't have luck with the other tool. Thanks for share it!

you are propably using a version of blender that is uncompatible with this addon

I have been having this same problem. Actively working on trying to figure it out as someone who has basically never touched blender. Will edit this reply if I find the solution! :)

i have a similar issue but mine is when i export my mesh that looks prefect in nifskope but yet crashes the creation kit 

 

if i could figure out this issue i could walk you through a workaround your issue.

I sorta lost this thread... I respond more quickly to github or the main mod page. 

I started out supporting 2.78 but as things have progressed, it's gotten harder to maintain compatibility. If there's a lot of interest I could look at it, but we're two major versions of Blender on by now.

Hey! Thank you so much for this addon.  It has been a long while since I last used Blender, so I have forgotten almost everything to do with it and I never tried to export nifs anywhere. Thanks also for the help on ow to install ( Edit ->Preferences -> Add-ons -> tiny little down-arrow in the upper right corner -> install from disk. Select the zip.) I had forgotten about that too.

 

Would you or anyone else know whether this tutorial is still valid? https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php?title=Creating_an_armour_for_Skyrim._Part_1 

With Niftly, all that pre-fiddling in Nifscope is probably not needed anymore?

Anyway, thanks again!
