Remove parts of a Armor.

[bobob1234]

Hi, i'm new to the whole modding business but i was wondering if anyone could help me remove the spikes on the feet for me on the toxic raider left & right leg armors as the current armor i'm using doesn't have shoes or anything so they just look stupid... :/

 

I don't know if i need to attach anything but here's a link to the original mod

P.s - Sorry if this is in the wrong thread/topic etc... like i said i'm new...

The best way would be a mesh edit, but you can do this in outfit studio using zap sliders too.

NifSkope2.0 may do it if the spikes are separate items otherwise you'd have to do it in Blender or similar.

i tried with nifskope but it turns out that the spikes are linked to the straps for the holster/pouches... and how do i do zap sliders in outfit studio?

yes probably the simplest way is doing it in outfitstudio and it's pretty easy as well

Open outfitstudio, load the project that this outfit should have (slidersets folder).

- First select the mesh you want to work, in the superior right panel you have a list with the meshes includes, click on the eye icon to check what mesh you need, select the mesh you need.

- Tool - Current tool - Mask

- With the mask tool, select brush settings, and reduce the size, for this spikes you will need a very small brush, maybe 0.02

- Disable the symetry paint, edit - X mirror (unmark)

- Paint the spikes, to help see what you are painting, disable the textures, edit - enable textures (unmark)

- What you paint is what will be keep intact, you want to remove the spikes, so now you must invert the mask, Tool - Invert Mask, all the body must be brown and only the spikes clear

- Now you will make a zap slider, this will remove the spikes, Slider - New Zap Slider - enter any name you want

- Now this zap slider will be on the botton of the right panel, were you have the slider list, mark this slider clicking on the pencil icon

- Go to slider properties, mark default at 100, and if you want you can mark this as hidden, so you wont see the slider in bodyslide.

- Save de project, open bodyslide and you should not have spikes anymore.

Thank you for the help. My problem now is getting it in game? Whenever searching for the armor that I created it cannot find it? I can see it in bodyslide window where you can change sizing etc. But where I have named the new zapped version of the armor I cannot find it in console command window :/. P.s sorry for being really stupid with this all I just dont understand why I cant find it in game :/

Nevermind haha. Finally got it to work. Thank you all for your imput and time helping me do this it was much appreciated haha. I didnt realise such a small thing could become such a pain in the ass for someone like me.
