Help with Mesh modding

[MadHaTr]

Hello I'm fairly new to modding meshes and things like this.

 

I have been messing around with a body replacer, now my problem is. After I import the nif file(femaleupperbody.nif) (I am using Blender) I than export it(no changes) I choose fallout 3 as the game type. I make no changes what so ever. When I load up the nif file in the game. The body is gone. Just hands feet and a head are left over.

 

So I assume its obviously something in the import/export process on blender. I'm not choosing the proper options.

 

Could someone point me in the right direction or explain what settings I need to be looking at and changing? I've looked around for the subject but can't seem to find it.

 

Thanks.

Oh and a small question here. Why when I open Normal Maps in GIMP they are invisible? I though they were supposed to have something in there.

Look for Growlf's female body import tutorial, it might shed some light on what to do. Its an AVI movie that you can download from the nexus files section.

 

Theres also a few vids around the internet here deep in the forums, in Bethesdas forums too, as well as PERHAPS one or two in No Mutants ALlowed forums. (i dont have links atm)

 

but some searching will have your answers :) (i can recall watching several videos on this so they DO exist :))
