Got a Pink Longsword

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 12:48 pm

Just like the title says, I have a pink longsword after downloading http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25242. After traveling to Imperial City to buy my new sword I was greeted with http://a.imageshack.us/img138/2403/screenshot1yas.png.
All folder and subfolders have been installed properly. Apparently this is not a new problem with this mod. What I am asking anyone who will hear me is, is there a fix for this aside from a mention on the nexus about Nifskope (which I know nothing about).

Does anybody know how I can fix this? I would really like to use this sword but not when it is pink.

Any help is appreciated.

You'll need to open up the sword mesh in NifSkope then find the NiTexturingProperty(s) and adjust the texture path so it links to the texture, it's not as terrible as it sounds :P

How would I go about doing that? As I said I am no good with Nifskope.
If you don't mind, Step by step instructions(for a beginner) on how to accomplish this would be appreciated.

I'm assuming you have Nifskope installed ect :)

  • 1) Open up the exoticlongsword.Nif in NifSkope
  • 2) In the Details Tree on the left click the little Arrow
  • 3) Navigate to the NiTriStrips: Sword Node and use the arrow to expand the data, do that again for the NiTexturingProperty
  • 4) You should now see 3 texture paths, click the purple flower icon, it will open a new window allowing you to navigate to the texture
  • 5) DO that for all 3 textures, order is:


exotic.dds
exotic_g.dds
exotic_n.dds


Textures should now show in NifSkope(Depending on your settings), Save it and you're done.
