Skree000 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 what is the gun from? also, sometimes the normals can get totally borked and the only way to fix is to 'Update Tangent Space' (done in nifskope via right click menu on the mesh bit) Remember however that 'set normals to face' causes any rounded elements to look faceted, since its basically blowing away the smoothing groups. Niftools exporter does some really bad operations to meshes, in addition to wrecking smoothing groups it also detaches every triangle on the mesh, breaking all the vertexes apart, no matter how much you play with it, even with vertex welding in the xport window, it still does the 'break apart' step, then it welds. Its broken, i posted at Niftools forums with the problem but nobody replied to the thread in 3 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svartberg Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 The Plasma Pistol is released, for anyone who's interested - http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8873 what is the gun from? also, sometimes the normals can get totally borked and the only way to fix is to 'Update Tangent Space' (done in nifskope via right click menu on the mesh bit) Remember however that 'set normals to face' causes any rounded elements to look faceted, since its basically blowing away the smoothing groups.

Nice art on your portfolio btw :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
