Changing scabbards for certain swords?

[BaronBraunschweiger]

A quick and hopefully easy question - How do I change the scabbard for certain weapons? I've got the basic workings of the mod kit down (I think), but can't seem to find a way to identfy the scabbard file and so on. So say I wanted to replace the scabbard on Teigr, what might the command lines look like?

 

Thank you!

If I am not mistaken, you have to edit the item's accompanying XML file and point it to a different scabbard model.

Thanks. I'm struggling to identify the correct file though. Having uncooked the content folder, I can't seem to find any XML files, only XMB, TGA, W2MESH and BUFFER files.

Any update on the issue? The xml that comes with the model (the .fbx and .xml file you get when u extract model) looks like this, doesn't seem to have scabbard included
