Oblivion to Skyrim armor import.

[CareTaker22]

Hi guys! I need some help with importing some armor from Oblivion into Skyrim.

 

I've followed a few toutorials but I still get stuck when I try to to make the Oblivion armor fit onto a Skyrim skeleton. The arms are the hardest to make it fit onto the skyrim skeleton.

I've tried to move the bones of the oblivion skeleton to match with the skyrim skeleton but once I remove the skeleton underneath the mesh jumps back up to the original position?

Any info or tricks to make it easier to do this would be great! :D

try r click on the skin modifier, after you change the arms position, and "colapse to" after that you can delete the skeleton and move on with any modifications on the mesh and here is a good tutorial to follow http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/534407-modding-armor-for-chsbhc-bbp-tutorial-for-3ds-max/

Thanx for the link ^^ I

 

I found an easy way to do this. First you have to position your Oblivion skeleton with it's mesh just like the position of the Skyrim skeleton, so it's like almost in the same position.

 

Then export the file as a .nif file and then just import the same file again but without the skeleton and woala!

Thaught I might tel my discovery for anyone else who is having the same problem. :D

Can you detail this a little more? What settings are you using for import and export?
