Havoked to un-havoked - an issue

[Citrus]

I wanted to make a simple thing that ended up in quite a mess. Well, it wasn't very big but it did get me puzzled.

I wanted to make some statics out of some weapons (two, in fact - an iron dagger and an iron war axe) and I followed the usual method: extract the NIFs, open them on Nifskope, change the Motion System and Quality Type under bhkCollisionObject, maybe change the Layer and Layer Copy to OL_Static, save with a different name, add the bastard to the CS and bam, you got yourself an immovable object. Thing is, I did just this and it worked for the dagger but not for the axe; I had tried doing the same for iron arrows and it worked as well but when I tried doing it for steel arrows, it didn't (I ended up discarding these because you can't attach scripts to arrows, at least not the way I want to).

To be exact, the axe had the same things changed as the dagger but once I activated havok, it fell. Maybe I'm missing something but given the fact it worked before, I'm intrigued. if someone can shed some light on this, I'd be grateful.

Hmm...that's odd. That method has never failed me. Then again, I've never tested a newly created static of this type in the CS before. Does the "static" axe behave like a normal one in game, too?

there are quite alot of misc settings in those collision branches. For that reason when I turn things from clutter (or this case weapon) to static I import in and out of blender to make sure all the settings and flags are set right.

I go one step further and remake the entire collision, making it simple so it doesnt affect fps much.

I didn't test it in-game; I can only speculate it would because it was being used as a weapon. Or it would just straight CTD.

As for the others (Meo and DaMage), is there any way of changing things in Nifskope or to solve this I really need Blender? I'm asking because I know nothing about Blender.
