Adding Sword Shield

[Bearerofdearth]

Alright, so I downloaded this mod: http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17167

For my own purposes I changed it from a two handed sword, to a one handed sword that part was easy. What I want to do is to duplicate it, and make it into a shield as well. I tried it, but when I did so, it ended up not really working out. All that happened was the "shield" was backwards and not really in my hand. I'm using the TES Construction Set. If you know exactly what I need to do to be able to do this, that'd be super. Thanks!

I believe something like Blender would be required for this. I don't have any experience at making a weapon into a shield, but there's one method I can think of.

 

First, import a SHIELD into blender. Deleted ALL faces save for the shield's handle. Then, import the weapon you want as a shield (so you know how the weapon, and the shield handle) then, align the weapon's hilt with the handle, once that's done, delete the handle, save the .nif and then reapply the texture with Nifskope if needed.

 

If you don't understand how/get too confused send me a PM with your email and a link to the download and I'll download the weapon, convert it into a shield for you, and then send it back. Although, like I said, I'm not entirely sure that method would work but it seems sound enough of paper. :D

So.... Uh, does anyone else have any ideas? Above listed on didn't work.

I honestly have no idea why it didn't work. I'm honestly stumped on that one. I'll keep messing around with it, but if anyone else has a solution, step up, because I don't think I can help on this one.
