BangARang2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Is there a way to do this? Clean Fallout 3 vaults for a change would brighten up someone's day i'm sure. I have NIFskope... who wants to help me look into this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1205226User Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'm a bit confused: would you like to convert Vanilla FO4 nifs and place them in FO3 or vice-versa?Bonus question: do you plan to make a mod out of these conversions and share them on Nexus? Because that won't be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangARang2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 I want to place FO4 nifs in FO3. The Vault NIFs to be specific. I hate the dirty, rusty vaults of FO3 and have gotten to where I would try to make new NIFs in 3DS max and put them in FO3. But My 3D Modeling experience rests mainly with AutoCAD. I do not plan to upload any mods to Nexus. This is more of an experiment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangARang2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 This is also more of a learning opportunity. If it is not possible, I would hope to at least understand "why" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1205226User Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) Now I understand better. Converting FO4 nif to FO3 should be possible. But because the nif structure is quite different in both game, it won't be a one click process (like it is for converting Oblivion nif into fo3 with Blender, for instance). It will probably require several applications from which some are not totally ready, as I understand from reading the forums.I can't tell you more because I'm not interested in that process myself. As why it won't be possible to share these conversion on Nexus, simply because it is not allowed to port original games content from one game to another. There are a couple of resources that offer clean version of the Vault meshes:http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/42802/?http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/17661/? They can be used in FO3 and FNV without problem. If you are about learning and challenges, I can only offer my moral support because I'm not knowledgeable enough to offer more, sorry. Good luck!

BangARang2016 Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 Just to re-open this thread, and share progress, Have a look at my sketch up file. (This is not the NIF from FO4. This is my model made from scratch and only available in 3ds format for the moment) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
