Weapon Texture

[BoscoClownie]

I've got my copy of Umbra under the Nifskope knie, and I'm trying to get theblade to use a different texture (and material properties, etc) than the hily, but although the blad is a seperate piece (has its own nitri strip, can be seperately selected) it has no seperate NiSourceTexture. Is there a way to add in a NiSourceTexture?

Copy the texture branch from either part (ctrl+c) then paste it in in both parts (ctrl+c). Delete the old texture branch (rightclick, remove) and you can now assign a different texture to both parts. Hope i helped :)

You could also just run the "split properties" spell....

 

This should give each branch its own unique number,

if branches have shared numbering they will share properties.

@Today: I tried that, but... I wound up with an untextured sword!

 

@heavywaters: Thank you, I'd try that, but I don't know how!

In Nifskope's main window under the spells drop-down menu expand the optimise sub-directory.

Here you will find a script called "split properties", click it then look at your Block List.

 

Each block should now have its own number and therefore no longer share its properties with any other block.
