Blender and Nifs

Post » Mon Jun 13, 2011 1:20 am

Hello! I've used blender to edit MW Nifs a long time ago, and haven't touched Blender since then. However, I am trying to install the newest blender (2.5.7b) and install the nif scripts, but I cannot get the scripts to install. They seem to ignore that I have Blender installed.. i've tried 2.5.7b, 2.5.7, and 2.5.6 without success. Anyone know the steps to get this to work?

You want the http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Installation_of_Blender version I am afraid, found http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=12248: The version 2.49b download (Blender 2.49b, Python 2.6.5, Blender NIF Scripts 2.5.5, NifSkope 1.0.22, PyFFI 1.1.5) is the currently "accepted" version and contains all related files and versions known to work well together.

ahhh. Being that it has been a while since I used blender, perhaps I could ask for help... I use Rhymer's Comberry bush as well as Graphic herbalism. Rhymer has graciously provided a berry-less bush (saved me a lot of effort!) but the berry-less bush trunk does not have a texture in MW. It does have one in Nifskope, so I know it's there. Thus, I figured it was an issue with when the nif was exported from blender it had an option that MW didn't like. So now my question:

I have forgotten work with textures in Blender, and after some searching of the GUI, couldn't figure it out..
Could anyone guide me on how to texture issue? If pics help explain, here's http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo351/Spiffyman777/Rebirth/Comberry.png, and http://s391.photobucket.com/albums/oo351/Spiffyman777/Rebirth/?action=view¤t=ComberryAfter.png

This is my refresher in working with blender again. Not as simple as I remember it being :toughninja:
