Tayot84 Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 I have been looking for the reason why my Blender nif scripts wont work, I found a forum that said the blender nif scripts wont work for a blender version higher than 4.9.Is this true, because I have blender 5.8.The reason my scripts wont work is because their not even installed, every time I try to install it says it can't find the directory blender should be in, I was wondering which directory it's looking in.And yes, I am only using 32 bit versions of all the required software, and I'm running as administrator.
micalov Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Yes nif scripts only work with blender 2.4.9, LHammonds has put a package together of all the compatible nifscript/blender ect versions needed into one one package here: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=12248
huntsman2310a Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 but he has said that they are working on a 2.5x version.
Tayot84 Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 I downloaded the Nexus files and they worked, but I was hoping for a way to use blender 5.8 with my nif files. I did find that if I installed 4.9 and 5.8 in different dirrectories they both work. I was able to do my mesh editing, materials, and shading in 5.8, and then importing and exporting in 4.9 (since both use. blend files, duh), but I had to redo all animation in 4.9 since the .blend files wouldn't carry the animation to 4.9. A small tip I guess for those you (like me) who find the blender 2.5.8 UI easier to work with.
