About armor creation

[jancicc]

recently i started to mod again but this time choosed to make items(armors/weapons). so far i can make weapons from scratch and etc. and i can convert already created armors(nif) into using my body and having BBB support. but i would like to know what u need to do if u make an armor from scratch? like an .obj file not .nif files. like what u need to do in nif files, what values, what to change, optimal polygon number etc

 

 

 

 

Edit: any ideas what's causing this? that happens on both sides, some parts of armor are following hand movements :/

Need to reweight it as thay are clearly broken.

 

I cant really help more than that with out knowing what modeling program you use.

[Endiness]

go into weight paint mode and brush away the weighting from the right hand and/or forearm bones on the pouch. You might have to add some weight to pelvis/right thigh bones if the program doesn't do it for you.

 

Hard to believe whatever skin wrapping script you used would weigh a hip mesh like that.

well i'm used to work with cinema 4d but as it's unsupported i'm using 3DS max

 

Edit: had to completly re-weight body, was using cbbe body made in sliders, gonna later re-weight armor and it should work.

 

 

and question what's nessessary to be written in Nifscope when u add for example .obj files as new model?
