Help needed with Armor Weight Slider

[drakishar]

Hello guys.

This is my first "working" mod, after blender editing .

I downloaded Dynasty armor from http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5733

and then started the editing process.

I want to have a real body under that armor not just an texture recolor.

 

I have splited the armor in 3 parts, cuiras , legpads and arms .

For now i didn't finish the arms since i deleted too many verticles.

 

So in Blender once i separated the cuiras and legpads, i removed everything else except this 2.

Imported a femalebody_0.nif in it and adapted the meshes to it.

Added materials, skins ..etc and exported , after i imported the robesf_0.nif for skeleton .

Then i deleted the female body, and imported in blender femalebody_1.nif.

Basically this time i mostly scale the old mesh, but i had to do some editing on breasts and arse because of the body . Yes i am using CBBE at the moment, and there is do DMRA yet out ( love the C type from Thor tho,can't wait for release ).

 

Worked the nif magic on both files and started the game .

Still have to fix some clipping issues, but once i solve the weight problem.

 

Loaded the game and everything looks great with the weight slider at minimum and at maximum.

Anything between gets messsy .

 

Strange thing is that when the weight slider is at 90% , the armor size in game is actual near to the minimum size, and then when is close to minimum size, the armor is increasing near the maximum weight .

I do not know exactly where i went wrong with it .

 

Nif file : (replacing the nightingale just for testing)

 

Screenshots :

 

Weight slider aprox 20% armor size near the max weight :

 

Weight slider aprox 40% :

 

Weight slider aprox 90% armor size near the min weight :

Partially solved.

 

I join together cuiras and legpads and reapply the weight script.

However, when both are 1 mesh, they won't scale with the body properly.

I had to scale it up, in order to adapt it to the femalebody_1 , aka full weight, using CBBE .
