BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Would anyone be so kind as to help me grab just a piece of a mesh from Res01PlayerHouse.nif?Or, possibly, offer an alternative existing nif or object already in the files? Specifically the exhaust vent on the back of the house. It's part of a larger BSTriShape (not the one selected in the image), and cutting it only has proven difficult for me.Doesn't need to have collision, snapping or any of the fancy bits. I'm slightly embarrassed, but I'm just not having any luck in 3DSmax, Outfit Studio or NifSkope with this and getting a bit flustered.To be honest, I'm a little out of my field at the moment, so maybe I'm just missing a better way. Thank you. http://www.ledgeoftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Clipboard03.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiumskull Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 If you've got 3DS Max and the NIF plugins, you shouldn't have any trouble importing the NIF and hunting down the specific geometry yourself. Getting it back out of Max and into a NIF may be the hard part, but you do have the tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 Have the tools, was losing my patience. 3DSmax Student was just not working for me at all yesterday (and still isn't, my pc's issue I'm sure). Thanks though, Radium. =)Anywho, I think I'll just circle back to it in a few days. Was just thinking I might put up an alpha version quick as I'll have far less time to work on this soon'ish (unless my contract falls through...mer). ...unless someone has an interesting/creative idea for a existing model that I can use for a doorway *from Inside to out (not through)* of a wall...?

radiumskull Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 When you say 'existing models for doorways' I think of all the various 'plug' and 'socket' ('sckt') options in the Interiors building kits from CK. Check 'em out, if you haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 Nope, nothing in the plugs and sockets that seems interesting...mostly too big and most rely upon a building of similar, um, build.Thank you, however, I do appreciate the suggestion. =) My contract got delayed (and my custom companion is giving me trouble), so I guess I'll try again to get 3DSmax running again with the extra time. Got 3DSmax 2016 instead this time and 'niftools-max-plugins-3.8.0.0fc6f5f' (which, supposedly, "Change log: 3.8 - "Add 3ds Max 2015,2016 support"").So, I'll uninstall the non-working and install the above fresh and see what happens. Used enough pipes and molerat holes already...definitely time to use something different as an entry/exit, like that vent. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
