3ds exporting to nif problem

[robertward203]

so at long last i've rigged the mesh to the skeleton but when i exported it i get a message saying "you have attempted to add a child to a ninode which is a child of another ninode." That might not be the exact message but it's similar. I'm pretty tired and this was hours ago. I tried to export the selected mesh and i unchecked the skeleton and collisions because the tutorial told me to

 

Sorry about all the posts.

export the whole scene. you should not have any collision objects in rigged meshes.

 

use these export settings for skinned geometry
