Launius Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I want to be able to play around with some models for Fallout 4, but I haven't really found a definitive answer as to how. I don't have any problem importing Skyrim .nifs, but I get an error everytime I try to import a Fallout 4 .nif. I know I can create from the ground up, then export in .obj, then use BodySlide and Nifskope and so on, but is there a way that I can get Fallout 4 .nif files into a modeling program? From what I've read, there isn't a plugin for Blender that supports Fallout 4 .nifs yet, and as far as 3ds Max, if there is a plugin, it seems to be very elusive. In other words, is there an import .nif plugin for either Blender or 3ds Max that supports Fallout 4 and if so, anyone know where I can get it?

TrickyVein Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It's not that elusive. Just kind of buggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Launius Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) That is the plugin I'm using for Max, but I get an error when I try to import a FO4 .nif. String too long. Not a NIF file or unsupported format?Got any idea what it is I'm doing wrong?Edit: For the record, I seem to be able to import skyrim .nifs without any problem.

Launius Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 Okay, I figured out my problem. Evidently, the .exe for that Niftools plugin is using old files. So I used the zip file, manually installed it, and now everything seems to be working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
