LancerChronics Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 So I'm trying to take a piece of one model and stick it on another model... I can move it over/make it show up in nifskope. I've tried copying it directly.Copying it and adding it to the children of the main mod.Creating a duplicate and just copying the values over. But all of it ends in one of two things:1) My game instantly crashes to desktop when the model is loaded.2) My character becomes a massive blob of grey flat plains and vertices, all extending outward...like a sea urchin. I heard that it used to be easy to do this in Oblivion, but not in Skyrim. Any new tricks that''s help me get this working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MShoap13 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Get Blender. Doing work like this in NifSkope is highly inadvisable unless you're a .nif guru... In Blender you'd want to import both models without Skeletons, delete any parts you don't want, then import a new skeleton (skeleton.nif located at \meshes\actors\characters\character assets\), export your .nif and then open it in NifSkope to perform the "delete bogus nodes" spell. There may or may not be information I'm missing regarding this process as I haven't actually messed with Skyrim meshes yet so I'd advise looking up a guide or maybe browse through the Nexus Wiki and see if there is any pertinent information there.

LancerChronics Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Gah, this has me practically frothing at the mouth! Install Blender.Get Nif Scripts --- "I'm sorry, but you need to download and install Blender first".Okay...I did get the 7-zip version, lets get the exe it automatically gives me. Install.Run Nif Scripts- "I'm sorry, you need to download Python 2.6"Log on, download latest Python. (2.7)Run Nif Scripts - "I'm sorry, you need to download Python 2.6"Separate window pops up. Download a SECOND Python (2.6)Run Nif Scripts - "I'm Sorry, You need to get Pyffi 2.2."Opens Website...There is no Pyfii 2.2.Download lastest Pyffi, breathe sigh of relief when it say 2.2 in the installer.Run Nif Scripts - "I'm Sorry. You need to get Pyffi 2.2" WHAT?!Search internet, someone says restart is required.Restart computer, Run Nif Scripts - "I'm Sorry. You need to get Pyffi 2.2"Search web again, Someone says to uninstall everything and start over.I call bulls***. Log on to Nexus forums, and hope for some help. I hate Blender now, And I've never even used it yet. Help! Edited March 9, 2012 by LancerChronics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
