Part of my custom sword mesh disappears

Hello everyone!

 

Sooo, I've been working on another custom sword mesh, but as usual, SOMETHING is going wrong. As always... forever...

 

Whatever. What's happening now is that one of the weapon's NiTriShapes is definitely disappearing whenever the camera gets within a certain (close) range.

 

You can see for yourself on the images I added: The wooden part of the hilt looks well'n'fine, right up until you stick your nose near it: While the metallic part of the hilt remains there, the wood is simply gone.

 

And I dunno why.

 

Can anyone Help me?

 

As usual, the first person to help me get out of this crap gets to suggest what I'm creating next (bow/arrows, sword, staff, shield).

 

EDIT:

 

Actually, for some reason, I have « exceeded my allotted disc space for attachments », whatever that means, making me unable to upload even the lowest-quality Jpeg.

 

Just imagine that part of the sword disappears as you get close, and it's gonna be enough.

Don't know if this is your mesh's problem but it's worth a try. Load the mesh in NifSkope. For the disappearing branch, navigate to...

 

NiTriShape > NiTriShapeData > Radius

 

Right Click on the Radius and...

 

Mesh > Update Center/Radius

 

If the numbers for Center and Radius don't change, then it wasn't a problem. If they do, then this may fix it. :)

Hmm unfortunately it didn't work.

 

Thanks for trying thought.

 

Just for you to know, Lanceor, this is actually about the mod I'm making according to your suggestions ! : )

 

I'll be uploading the Flametongue, the Holy Avenger and the Sorcerer's Armor from the Arcane codex.

 

Just need to fix this, slap powers on them and make a dungeon to make people work their horses off to be worthy of wielding such iconic weapons.

I'm terribly sorry to dig up this really really old thread, but I'm having the same problem with some armor I'm making for New Vegas. A quick Google searched brought up only a handful of people experiencing this issue, and you're the only one who seems to have fixed it. What did you do?
