[SKY] Adding Resources

[l0new0lf331]

Hello,long time no post.....is adding resources in skyrim the same as the tutorial for oblivion?

[Hanaisse]

Off the top of my head (cause I haven't tried it yet), yes.

I'm not sure which tutorial you're speaking of, but adding is the same as Oblivion.

[WillieSea]

The only real difference is there are different options on the objects, and there are more types of objects you can use. And some of the objects that were in Oblivion do not act the same way as they do in Skyrim.

The tutorial I refer to is by Williesea and InsanitySorrow here http://tesalliance.o...n-your-own-mod/ and here http://tesalliance.o...ders-resources/ respectively.Incidently Willie it was your Levelers Tower I was gonna poach a few things from,following your wishes in regards to of course.So its been awhile since I did modding work since my laptop got stolen and am needing some refreshers.Any clue as to when TESVEdit,Snip,Gecko and the updated nifscripts for Blender 2.63 aregoing to be out?So far all my searches have turned up negative,including getting meshes from Skyrim into Blender and vice versa.Thank You.

Check the skyrim forum for 3D stuff. From what I hear, you have to use the .OBJ method and copy it onto an existing skyrim NIF. But don't quote me.

As for the other stuff, I have not heard but then I don't look either.

TESVEdit is currently in closed BETA and on the verge of general release.

TESSnip is know to cause corruption and I don't believe anyone is working on fixing it. Won't need it soon anyway.

Gecko, last I heard someone is working on a version but there's been no updates recently on BGS, so I don't know where it stands. In other words, don't hold your breath.

Nifscripts 2.6.0 works for Blender 2.6.x. It currently only does very basic importing/exporting of TriShapes, Materials and Textures. I know everyone wants to use the latest Blender for the cool UI but it's a futile effort. You'll need 2.49 to do anything worthwhile.

There is no version of Nifscripts that touch Skyrim stuff yet. And there won't be any time soon. There are many workarounds, one being import/export .obj's only like Willie said above, but that's not really necessary. With a few tweaks the import/export of FO or MW nifs work great.

Thank You.I'll be looking into all that now.

Is there a tutorial on how to do the Import of the .OBJ file?

---Slightly off-topic, but within the original question---

I have a custom house exterior being designed, but nothing in game that is similar to the style of this house exterior. What effect will this have on creating collision? Can it be done in NifSkope, if so how?

InsanitySorrow has written a new tutorial on using resources for Skyrim:

He's also written one covering this too:
