Corrupted Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 How would you go by in adding a new monsters mesh and texture into the Oblivion construction set? i've gone thorugh and found the model tab, but i have no idea on how to add it for use...[i've done an armor piece already but i can't figure out monsters] i've been looking elsewhere as well and can't find any help.

mazakala Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Is it a reskin or a completely new mesh? creatures work a bit differently that other meshes, you first have to create a folder for the mesh in data\meshes\creatures. If it's a reskin you place it in the SAME folder as the original (since the folder contains all of the creatures .kf animation files and it's skeleton file) Then in the stats tab in creature window choose the skeleton.nif for the creature. Press ok and reopen the window, go to meshes tab and your mesh will be there, check the checkbox in front of it. Click preview and see your newly created creature ;P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you check the preview box as well? either that or the mesh has some problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you check the preview box as well? either that or the mesh has some problem... yeah i did, i think its having a problem with the file...like you said, i'll try renaming it...didn't work fyi: it shows up in NifSkope...but not in the CS...so i guess i'll ask where do i go from there [and yeah its a reskinning i'm sure you already figured that one out] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
