Great news! Thank you. Unfortunately, I'm not even sure what skin nodes are. I know just enough from ShadeAnimators tutorial to be able to make animations. But, am otherwise pretty clueless when it comes to anything 3D related.

I'm giving this a try. When I load the EVB body into outfit studio (to convert it to FBX so I can work on it in Maya) it seems to get messed up. The body is floating way above 0 on the y axis. Is there a step I need to take to correct that before turning into an FBX? Will I need to float it up that high again for it to work in FO4?

As long as the model is properly skinned to the skeleton, it'll be fine.

It is presumably properly skinned to the vanilla skeleton now. But, when I bring it into outfit studio it doesn't show up aligned properly. It's outside of the skeleton. Is that something broken in outfit studio? Have you seen it before? Or, maybe I don't have something set up right...

It brings in the skeleton with the root node at (0,0,0) but for whatever reason, bethesda's nifs has the origin at a different location (which I think is what Outfit Studio uses). If you want to align things to Outfit Studio, you can just export the CBBE body and eyeball where the EVB model should go. Of course, you need to make sure that it aligns with the default head and hands as well...

I'll see how far I can get .

From what I've read, they are not supported. I have the nif plug-in installed. But, when I try to load one into Max I get a "string too long" error. I was able to export the body mesh as an obj from nifskope and load it in 3DSMax. But, that process doesn't work for the skeleton.

I will check that. They are within a few layers of directories. But, not too much. The bottom line news for me though is that you are saying that I should be able to load Fallout 4 nifs into 3DSMax without error, right? I got the link for the nif plug-in from a Nightasy tutorial that was a created a while back. So, maybe I ended up with an old version of the plugin...

dagobaking Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Thank you. That was the problem. I had somehow installed the "A3" version. The latest one works.
AdmiralSeadog Posted August 23, 2018 Posted August 23, 2018 Any news on this? Seems to have been quiet here for a long time ?

loen999 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Thanks and hope we can have another progress for Fallout 4!
Mewfii Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 So basically its like the Skeleton mod for Sky(Old)rim/SSE? Should you still install this last so when opening the mod config menu in game it doesn't say "You failed, install again" under Skeleton at the top?
flutie Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 refer to this thread, its a continuation of Vader thread 1
