DeadSomething Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Hi' date=' I just had this idea when reading this post: [...'] Sadly in Oblivion humanoid skeletons the area around pelvis is really static, which complicate things, but if you have an idea in mind and you want to make it, it can be done, however it never will be 100% perfect because it is still so far from the real human anatomy, and i think nobody will make more precise skeletons for Oblivion, maybe in Skyrim. i once used poser7 and had many different freeware bodies which seem to have an almost perfectly anatomic skeleton - maybe it would be possible to edit (a lot) to make them compatible with oblivion. on the downside, this would definitely require to edit/remake all the animations that appear in the game aswell as all the armour and clothing, because every animation not fitting the skeleton would cause a CTD. it would still be possible to rename nodes according to growlf's skeleton: if the vertebral column of the new body/skeleton has 33 vertebrae nodes and growlf's has 7 from down to up: Bip01 pelvis Bip01 Spine Bip01 Spine1 Bip01 Spine2 Bip01 Neck Bip01 Neck1 Bip01 Head it would be possible to have those corresponding in the new skeleton and animation to have the same names as those in growlf's. from down to up: Bip01 pelvis Bip verteb01 Bip verteb02 Bip verteb03 Bip01 Spine Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip01 Spine1 Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip01 Spine2 Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip01 Neck Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip01 Neck1 Bip vertebxx Bip vertebxx Bip verteb33 Bip01 Head animation moves skeleton -> skeleton moves bodymesh while if there are movement informations given and the corresponding node doesnt exist in the skeleton/bodymesh, it will be ignored. i hope this isnt too freaking confusing getting that to work in oblivion would be an absolute breakthrough...
Symon Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 The big problem with this is that Bethesda, in their infinite wisdom decided to use the same skeleton (and animation kfs) for male and female models.
DeadSomething Posted September 9, 2012 Author Posted September 9, 2012 wouldnt it be possible to even change that aspect of the game?
quasimodo75 Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Guess this would mean to make women and men different races. *Scratches head*: "Well, this seems to be quite realistic if you look at life outside TES..."
gregathit Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 wouldnt it be possible to even change that aspect of the game? Possible, yes. Difficult, very!!!!!! This is why it hasn't been done yet. However, if you manage to pull it off, you will be a hero!

[/quote'] that sounds tempting, but i dont know if i really got the skills to pull this off... as far as i know, such work can only be done in blender and i havent ever worked with blender. i'll definitely consider it.
lollol Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Amazing idea!! Would be a huge upgrade for Oblivion, Skyrim, and both Fallouts!
