asmcint Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Okay, so I'm trying to work on getting a new weapon in-game. At this point it's just experimentation, probably won't see release. Unfortunately I can't get anything to work right in-game. The weapon entry pulls the Elven Sword model despite being told to use my custom model, and when I drop it, I get big translucent error sign. I suspect that I have problems both with my .nif and with my entries, but I'm so far in over my head that I need someone else to take a look at it and figure out what the problems are. From there hopefully I can correct them and learn how to prevent them in the future. I should note that my model is made in Blender, so getting a .nif in to use for size comparison and getting one out to start getting ready for Skyrim was more than a little bit of a pain, and was confusing enough that I have no doubts something got screwed up somewhere in the process. In any event, here's a link to a .zip archive with all relevant files, and all form IDs in the Creation Kit will have VivecSword somewhere in the name: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0iaIJV9C9rIMDNuc1I2N0JXVms/view?usp=sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novem99 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Okay at first your model is totally screwed up. I'm no expert with nifskope but I can tell you that a lot of settings are missing (e.g. the path where your textures are located). The weapon entry pulls the Elven Sword model despite being told to use my custom model Your .esp has to records for the static: 1stPersonVivecSword & 1stPersonElvenSwordDUPLICATE001. The latter one has a "link" to the Elven Sword. The first one isn't shown properly because of your wrong model. The weapon formula is also wrong. For "1stPersonModelObiect" you have set "1stPersonElvenSword". That's why the Elven Sword is shown. You would have to select "1stPersonVivecSword". But again it won't be displayed properly because of your totally messed up model. I can't help you with that, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
