[LE] Invisible Armour in Game

[spartan071194]

I'm having a slight problem seeing my mesh in game. it shows up in both the creation kit and nifskope but for some reason beyond my understanding I cannot get the armour to actually appear in game. I'm sure i've missed something crucial but I don't have the faintest clue on how to go about fixing it. If someone could perhaps look at my nif file and see where I've gone wrong that would be very helpful.

Make sure your new armor is partitioned properly, and that the partitions in the nifs and the body slots in the esp match.

Otherwise, post your nif file.

right, i'm not sure how to do that so i'm just going to post the nif

While the armor mesh itself looks good, there is just so many things wrong with it overall. First and foremost, it's not rigged properly.

I would suggest you do some research, here's a tutorial to help you start.

Recently I had the same issue. In my case it was a missing mesh, I had the _1 mesh but not a _0. You might have a look at this post:

It's an old post but still relevant. It provided the solution to my problem. And of course, make sure your texture paths are set correctly. Hope this helps.
