Airock Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Ok I'm converting the pipe from the Cannabis mod into an armor, but I'm having trouble with the pipe mesh. The only available .nifs of the pipe mesh is an animobject, and a ground object. There is no equipable mesh like the joint/ blunt. In 3dsmax im using the ember from the joint as the pipe ember,...and the pipe animobject. for the pipe I stripped down everything but the trishapedata, basically just importing the mesh shape with no skin or bsdismemberment. I build the skin and BSDismemberment for the pipe from scratch,...painting full weight on head, and selecting all faces for dismemberment. For the ember I just add head to skin and paint weights. I export them together (testing by rotating NPC head node which rotates perfectly with the pipe and ember moving as expected.) But once I get it into skyrim I find that the pipe only follows the root node,..seemingly ignoring the head. The ember works as it should in-game,....this is shown in the screenshots following.... Is there something more you need to do when converting a non-armor object into a armor item? Because this happens everytime I convert a normal object into armor.
