I'm hoping someone who has rigged meshes from a new creature to a skeleton can give me a heads up on nifscope and what to expect after exporting from 3DS. In 3DS I rigged my meshes to the skeleton bones and exported the mesh and I end up with the same structure you would expect to see from looking at any other creature in Nifscope. My problem is that while all the structures appear right (nodes etc.) I don't have any NiSkinInstance nodes, am I missing a step in 3DS or do I have to build this in Nifscope?
