About porting files from Oblivion

[masterteo89bbb]

Hi, i am opening this topic because i need your help. I would be very grateful if you could help me.

 

The problem is that i would like to transfer Inari Race mod ( with the optional head texture) , made by Hidemaro from Oblivion to Skyrim.

Else, an easyer way would be to simply put the animated ears and tail from the Inari mod to a normal male/female character of Skyrim, creating a new "race" that at the end is default race + Hidemaro's animated fox ears and tail.

 

 

Now, i'm not asking if some of you could do it ( even if it would greatly help), what i'm asking you is how can i do it.

 

Regrettably, i don't have much free time. So, i can't afford to learn all the things about modding...i need only to learn things related to what i'm asking in this post.

 

So, what programs should i use?  How can i create a new race? How can i add Hidemaro's animated fox tail and fox ears? How can i transfer things from Oblivion to Skyrim?

 

 

I'm a newbie in modding, i know it. But i'm not lacking the will to learn, only i don't have time to learn all about modding. I need only to learn what i need to do th things i'm asking you here in this topic.

 

Thank you.

Skyrim uses a different way to animate things oblivion uses shape keys and I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere that if you try to use stuff with shape keys on it in skyrim it will cause a CTD.

Oh, are you saying that it's impossible to port things from Oblivion to Skyrim? Because if the problem is only the animation, i think it would be good enough porting the fox tail and ears without making them animated.

 

Still, the problem remain : i don't know how to do it. As i said, i'm only a newbie willing to learn but that at the moment know 0.

Porting the ears and the tail as meshes without animation is not that hard, you can treat those assets as body slot armor parts. I can port them that way, drop me a message if you are interested.

You can port the oblivion mesh to skyrim you just can't use the animations that are on them so you can only port the mesh without the animations.
