tiggerdyret Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hey. I want to learn how to do some 3d modeling in 3ds max, but I don't know how to import the .nif files into the program. It says on the nifskope page that it can no longer export to .obj file format. I know 3ds max 2012 has a nif plugin, but not the 2013 cas far as I know. The old (ugly) version of blender can export to .obj, but I haven't found out how and I would also like to not have to use both blender, nifscope and 3ds max. Any suggestions on where to start and what program to use? Should I just bite the bullet and buy a used copy of 3ds max 2012?

FastestDogInTheDistrict Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Here y'go: NIGHTASY TUTORIALS That is an excellent series of beginner-friendly Skyrim 3dsMax tutorials. You will begin with what programs to use, where to get them (legally, for FREE), and how to install. Start at the beginning & work your way through them (don't worry - it's a lot quicker than you think). :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiHawkNZ Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 The NifTools import export is for 2012 tho and dosent work with 2013 or 14 this thread might be of help but I get the feeling the importer verson is not finished or not polished there no installer https://tesrenewal.com/forums/tools-and-coding/nif-importexport-plugin-for-3dsmax-2013?page=2#comment-73400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDGameArt Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 This will work in max 2013 and 14 but I don't know how reliable it is. I've used it in 14 and seems fairly solid but I didn't use every feature. https://tesrenewal.com/forums/tools-and-coding/nif-importexport-plugin-for-3dsmax-2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
