Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I was thinking about trying to mesh. Where is a good place to download the NifSkope program? I know where to find tutorials, I just need a good place to download the program. Thanks a bunch. |

And, if you run into any troubles, here is a good site that focuses on meshing with nifskope: SBK's Mesh Design Centre |

Good Luck - I just learned recently, and its actually quite fun once you get the hang of it, but all the vertices can get bothersome. Also, just a recommendation, do a minor mesh first, dont try to completely alter the model, as it is very difficult, takes lots of time, and may be distorted in game. That said, good luck! |

Boy, this meshing is quite interesting. I pretty much know what I'm doing its just that you have to change the vertices VERY minutely in the decimels and its hard see because the X, Y, and Z only shows one number at a time. I'll get used to it though. |

Okay here's my next question, can you move one part of the body without using all those little nodes. Because when you edit those, you get some weird horn, or plate, even if you only change the numbers a bit. So can you mass move parts of the body in meshing? |

I think my question doesn't make sense. I just read it, and I didn't understand it :lol: Let me rephrase it, is there a way to mass move parts of the body without moving it little node by little node. |

if you use nifskope, i dont know how to do it. With blender or somehting you can, but then you run into lots more difficulty getting it into game. |
Check out my site where you can get many of my downloads here.

I am using NifSkope, but I will keep those other programs in mind, although proabably won't use them if they casue more problems. |

You can. You can move the NiNodes, but it won't work ingame. |
