Uknown problem with Meshes alteration. (Daedric weapons)

[Zaronios]

Hello everyone,

You may call me Zaronios.

I'm a modder, not a famous one though haha, and this is my work: Daedric Glows - New and Enhanced Colors.

I'm working on this mod for over an year now and recently I've encountered few errors that I can't seem to find the problem anywhere.

Errors that Never happened before.

And worst, the problem seems to be with Skyrim itself, not with my mod. I've asked people to try Other mods that alter the meshes and they get the same problem.
Here's the scenario: My mod, replacer version, alters the Meshes data for the glows of the Daedric Set and Weapons. Just the glow color, Nothing else.

I'm used at checking for every possible error, even small ones, before releasing any update or uploading new files, and as usual, everything's working perfectly fine... untill now...

I've encountered uknown and nonsense errors with both Daedric Bow and Daedric Dagger (sometimes happens with Greatsword, and rarely, with WarHammer) after it's meshes has been altered.

When I, or other people, alter those two .nif files, one weird thing happen with each weapon.

 

- The dagger floats. It just stay there floating in air. (Same with Greatsword and/or WarHammer in rare cases).

 

- The bow disappears. It's commonly found on the coordinates 0,0,0 of the Interior Cell you find yourself at. If you happen to drop the bow in the open world, don't expect to find it so soon.

Most of the times, when using TCL console command, I find the bows deep into the ground, in, more or less, a south-west direction. In other cases it disappears completely, so I have to go out and back into the Interior Cell.

 

The problem happens simply by changing the Color Data of it's meshes.

I've checked everywhere on the .nif files, for any wrong coordinate change, anything. - Nothing. There's NOTHING different other than the color.

I've tested it with recently created meshes and with the oldest files. This problem was nonexistant, untill now. (I don't know how long, a month or so?)

 

My friend tried my mod arround a week ago on his old Skyrim. It had 0 problems, with any weapon. A few days later he had to reinstall Skyrim. Yesterday he reinstalled my mod and... BAM, Problem.

It makes literally no sense, since the files he's using are the SAME from before.

If anyone else is also experiencing this, please let me know.

If anyone knows what is happening, why it's happening, and better, if anyone knows how to FIX it, please share.

 

Sorry for the long post, and Thank You for your time!

I'm going to engage in a bit of necromancy here, and resurrect this post - I'm having this same problem and I can't find much information on it at all. I'm just trying to replace the elven bow with a mesh from another mod, and it works perfectly, except for the fact that it seems to disappear when I drop it from my inventory. I dropped it in the Riverwood trader, and it appears behind the counter, no matter where I am when I drop it (I'm presuming that's the 0,0,0 coordinates inside the RT). If I drop it outside, well I have no idea where it goes. I checked in the usual spot above Bleakwind Basin where random stuff goes to die, but all I found there was a floating door...

 

Does anyone out there know why this happens, and how I can fix it? I'm just using the mesh and texture as a replacer, so there's no esp or anything involved here.
