cis190 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) When I drop my stand alone glass armor re-texture on the ground it shows up with the default texture, how do I fix it? Edited January 25, 2012 by cis190 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkjoldBjorn Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 unequiped armor sometimes have it's own mesh, you have to apply the textures to this model as well. Usually their names end with go, so in your case the mesh called "cuirassglassgo", gauntletsglassgo and so on.You also have to change textures on the 1stperson meshes if you want it complete.

jet4571 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Did you change the drop version to the standalone and not the vanilla? if you changed the texture path you may want to verify that the new armor is using the new drop version and not the old ones.

I have already changed the standalone texture path to where my textures are and they work on my blood armor in the game but if I take it off then it goes to the default colors, im not telling the mesh the path or something for the dropped armor and I need to know where is it located :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should perhaps have said "cuirassglassgo.nif and "gauntletsglassgo.nif" It sounds like you still need to set the paths in these .nif's as well ... Also FYI, most ***go.nif's point to the MALE version of the texture files, so if you've only edited the female version and if the texture is very different (in layout) from the male version you'll have to retex that one as well Edited January 26, 2012 by Perraine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunnie Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Make sure that the MOD2 (Male) and MOD4 (Female) subrecords point to the new ground mesh, and that the new ground mesh has a proper link to the new texture. Also, default nomenclature for ground meshes is GND (e.g. DBArmorGauntletsGND.nif). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perraine Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 When you say "nine slots" are you referring to the 9 texture lines under the 'Shaders' tab in the .nif? If so, I've only (so far) seen a mesh use lines 1 and 2 and sometimes (if it has a separate mask and/or specular file) lines 5 and 6 Also, default nomenclature for ground meshes is GND (e.g. DBArmorGauntletsGND.nif).Ummm ... Actually it isn't really, "gnd" is used somewhat less than than "go", but that's neither here nor there really ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkjoldBjorn Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 easy to find out, check a vanilla mesh and see where the diffuse, normal and specular map is placed. as perraine said the diffuse and normal map is placed on the 2 first rows in BSShaderTextureSet.
