Need help creating a new weapon in CK from custom mesh

[malibu35072]

I poked around this form and I didn't see any help on how to get the 1st person mesh I created for my custom item to show up in object properties in the CK. Frustratingly the 1st person mesh is a drop down box, not go find the file button like the "3rd" person mesh.

 

So I created a new axe from scratch, new mesh, new textures all that. I successfully got it all nifscoped so that the axe works. I create a new item listing by telling CK to duplicate the steel war axe. I change the 3rd person mesh to my 3rd person nifscope mesh. All is well. But I cannot change the 1stPerson mesh, I don't understand why.

 

Thus in the game, when my new axe is laying on the floor, it has my model and textures. But when I pick it up, it reverts to the vanilla steel axe, and same goes in 1st or 3rd person.

 

So in essence I don't know how to make the CK set the proper 1st person mesh so my item will work properly.

You created a 1stperson form as well? Normally you duplicate those 4 forms:

 

NAME

1stpersonNAME

RecipeWeaponNAME

TemperWeaponNAME

 

... as seen in the 4th part of my tutorial in my sig, that should work.
