This has nothing to do with Morrowind, does it? ;)

Actually it does. .Nif is Morrowind's model format.

 

 

And the export plugin is for 3dsmax only. You'll need 3dsmax and a way to import the files from maya.

I got Both, Maya unlimited 6 and max 6 :)

 

You need to get the maya file into wavefront OBJ format then send it over to your max and import it. Then use the nif converter on the bethesda website.

 

Note : I actually add an extra step, I have poser 5 and stick it through that and bend it so it looks nicer and smoother, add facial features and skin there not maya then use the poser to convert the file into max. It looks much better that way. Fo shizzy.

Cool I just got maya too, a $14K version, I was afraid there was no way to get models from it into .NIFs, But i have Max also so that works for me ^_^

Damn its good to be filthy rich.

Anyway where can I get poser5?
