cfh85 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 on my offhand books my textures disappear up close! I don't get the missing texture icon thing, just nothing. any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theuseless Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Are you saying that books disappear when you get close to them? That sounds like an interesting bug. If the textures are disappearing, they would turn purple. Can you still interact with the books at all? How many mods do you have running? Does this happen in every worldspace (tamriel, interiors, shivering isles, oblivion)? What are offhand books? Did you recently install a new mod?

cfh85 Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 I should have explained better. My offhand books are books the PC carries in the shield slot. These are aimed at mages. This was happening if I went into 3rd person view and zoomed in too much or if I was blocking in first person (so in first person basically could never see the book) only the jacket was disappearing and the paper texture remained. It was cause (for unknown reason) during creating the meshes in blender. When I initially created the meshes the books were all upside down in the PC's hand so I rotated and mirrored the meshes until I got them right. This is what caused it. I recreated the meshes from the beginning (added a book mesh to shield mesh in nifskope then edited in blender) and put the book meshe in correctly the first time. This has fixed the issues. I have no mods installed other than my own which I'm working on. Sadly I haven't played the game in about 2 months because it wasn't what i wanted and have since been obsessed with editing :biggrin: so until mine is complete I wont have any other mods (this should only take about a year or so) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theuseless Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I'm completely lost when it comes to blender work. Sorry I can't be of further help. Sounds cool tho. I haven't played the game in years now. I have been obsessed with the completion of my own mod, Castle Tharnstein. I look forward to seeing your mod. Maybe you could release it as modder's resource (so I can use it in mine lol). That would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfh85 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 Just uploaded a test mod Mage Items containing the offhand books. They should work fine and my meshes (read the readme to find out which are mine) are a free resource. Everything in it should work as intended, I'm after names more than anything and balancing suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
