CherryHotaling Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Hello there,I have modeled in 3dsmax for ages and I wanted to take a crack at modding the shapes in skyrim for others.Although I do not know where to find resources to help me so i thought I would ask. Tools I have:3ds Max 2011NifScope So as a test I took a body mod i knew worked in skyrim. I exported the body shape from Nifscope as an .obj, I imported it into max and made some very visible changes to the body so i would know the new modifications worked.I exported the .obj from max and back into Nifscope, (Still had the other modders "femalebody_1.nif" open and imported the new .obj mesh into that one) Well as you can tell it didn't work. The issue is I am not sure the process of exporting and importing into max for the shape to work.Do I need a custom bone rig in 3ds max? Is there a special way to apply the bones to the mesh in Nifscope? Any help is greatly appreciated and I would gladly share my outcome and end product with everyone. Thank you for your time.
