Import .obj in nifskope

[Lol9]

Hi, I exported the exnem version femaleupperbody.nif to .obj, imported it to blender, edited and then exported again to .obj.

How do I exactly import it back?

Any help would be appreciated.

the .obj has a few severe issues with it. First is that it usually only contains the basic mesh information, This can often mean that when importing/exporting .obj files, you lose normals, smoothing groups, or even have verticies that get screwed up. Unless you are without options, you shouldn't really use .obj format for anything other than simple models of stuff. I can tell you right now that when you converted to .nif to .obj you probably lost weighting and bone information. Despite having worked with 3d models of some kind off and on over the last 10 years, across multiple formats, I have yet to run into a case where .obj format didn't screw up one thing or another. Think of it like .bmp format. Most image programs can open it, but it isn't exactly something you'd normally want to use.

 

Blender has a good .nif importer/exporter. It is suggested that you just learn to use that.

Yes, I found that .nif importer later on but don't know how to use it :unsure:

I'm going to figure it out today or if you know little tutorial give it to me :happy:

I found it! :D

Configured the importer and exporter and then messing around with the mesh exporting it putting it in the right directory and now... xD
