Warrdean Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 All of the .dds files are the textures, I believe that nifscope only opens meshes. This link has a few programs that you can install that let you convert .dds files to other files in order to modify them, as well as a program to view just textures, but I havn't used the second one so I don't know how it looks. http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/DDS_Tools If you are just seeing a white mesh when you open it in nifscope, then you either dont have the textures, or you might not have them in the right place. If you look at the path for the textures while in nifscope, you'll see that it looks for them in your oblivion "data" folder, just as if it were a mod that you installed. And just browse around wiki, it has a lot of tutorials, they helped me a lot. :happy: http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index...egory:Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTerminator2004 Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Nifscope's default texture path isn't the Oblivion data folder, because its used for quite a few games. In options, or settings, or something like that, theres a setting to tell it what path to use when looking for textures, and for which game. You can set it there.
