Witcher models

I need help making the male witcher models top and bottoms. this would allow for wearing differant jackets with a variety of pants. Also the option to go shirtless. any help would be appreciated.

"The Witcher 2 Models".

 

*Also, do a Nexus search using the term "Witcher" for further results.

Thanks Fast,  Im a fan of your work btw.  I have all the witcher content available. The problem I have is chopping the nif and making it into 2 with a top and bottom armor nif and then getting it into game.  Like what Kaliliies did with the travel attire mod except for males.  

 

There is a shortage of male armors that look as good as the witcher models.  I would like to turn them into top and bottom armor or cuirass and greaves for more variety. 

 

any help would be appreciated

Many thanks!

 

Well, if the Witcher models you want are already weighted to the Vanilla skeleton (as I think the resource linked above is), then you should have no trouble chopping them up in 3dsMax! Start with Nightasy's tutorials channel on YouTube - these are EXCELLENT, and will give you a really good crash-course in the basics. Since you're modding male armours, you won't need to remove the skin or re-weight to any other body mesh or skeleton - just use the polygon & element selection tools, and the "Detach" tool under "Geometry". With a little trial and error, this will give you a whole lot of properly skinned & weighted pieces that you can then rearrange them however you like to create new mash-ups - I do this & it works a treat!
