@Hicks233, yes, and I already installed that version. It's the version I normally use anyways, I never updated to 2.5 or higher because I got used to and liked the old GUI.

Anyways, http://i48.tinypic.com/1glp3s.jpg without the nifscripts, I had to export out every TriShape as an obj in Nifscope and import them all individually in blender, and then link them to their appropriate textures again. Now all I need to do is position it to where the helm meshes are usually positioned and add it to the game. Unfortunately I can't do so without the NifScripts. Also I'm going to have to repeat this nifscope process for every pony head I want to add to the game. It might take a while, plus I've read the Nifscripts aren't compatible with Skyrim nifs, so this might be my only option.

Wow, I love My Little Pony...but that's a little scary. Then again, Pinkie Pie usually is.

Hey SWG, just download Blender from here: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/40980
It already has all the NIF import/export scripts + Python, etc. built in so you don't have to do anything at all.
Works with Oblivion + Morrowind.

Ok I got the nif scripts and everything working. They don't work with Skyrim meshes so I have to use Nifscope and export the parts out as .obj to get them working, but I've got a bit of a flow now so I should be able to get them all into blender pretty quickly, I've got Rarity done (as you saw earlier) and now I got the Pinkie Helm into blender.

EDIT: Ok, so I have the Pinkie Pie Helm ingame working as a ground mesh, but when I try to put it on, the game crashes. I know the ground meshes for armor and the wearing meshes are different, but how? What do I do to make my helmet wearable?

http://i50.tinypic.com/2l55s7.jpg. Ok, Everything I was having problems with is now resolved. The only problem is the textures aren't showing up, and I'm not sure why.

Did you set your texture paths properly? I've made that mistake a few times while manipulating nifs.

@Jac, Yes, I've already double checked this and I even tried using a few variations of the texture path, but nothing has worked. I also deleted all the unnecessary blocks from the NIF, as a number of them were there as a result of the mesh being converted from Skyrim.

I'm not sure what to do about it at this point, I think for now though I'm gonna focus on converting and getting the rest of the Pony helmets in the game. Once I get that done and have all the textures working, I can move on to the hoof gloves and eventually the holdable pony arrows and swords.

hmm, lettuce see. Have you tried remaking the texture settings in blender from scratch?

@woli, I had to do that when I imported the meshes in as .obj.

SWG, blender can handle compression ratios of textures that the CS and Nifskope can't. Please check the compression of the textures.

@Elaura, well ok, I was thinking that could be it, but I didn't think to actually make anything of it since the textures had been optimized for Skyrim anyways. I'll get back to you on the compression settings they use.

hmm, send me one of the nifs in our PM?

@Elaura, I can't figure out how to see the compression settings on a texture in DXTBMP, I'm just gonna re-save them and see if that works.

EDIT: Derp, the compression was on the title bar. They're saved as DDS DXT 1, unfortunately whenever I try to re-save them DXT ruins the textures by putting black scan lines all over them or something, and it's doing that in every format I save them as. The originals are also ALWAYS smaller than the ones I re-save, even if I save it with the same compression.

You may need to contact the author and see if they still have the textures in the original uncompressed file format. Maybe they still have the Photoshop files?
