Is this possible? I've been crawling through the NIF folder in the CS, but the weapons I am looking for are not there. Am I overlooking something, or would I have to learn NIFScope or something along that line?

It's pretty easy in NifSkope:

1. Open the mesh (I'm using the quarto01.nif located in Clutter/Books)

2. In the Block List, expand bhkCollisionObject.

3. Click on bhkRigidBody.

4. In the Block Detains section, look for the line marked Collision Response?.

5. Double click on  http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/7551/makeanobjectstatictut01.jpg and change it to RESPONSE_NONE. (note: screenshots are big, so you may have to scroll down)

6. Scroll down to the line Motion System and change  http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/5615/makeanobjectstatictut02.jpg to MO_SYS_FIXED

7. Scroll down to the line Quality Type and change  http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/7272/makeanobjectstatictut03.jpg to MO_QUAL_FIXED.

That should do it.

If you want to turn them into statics so that they can't be moved, you'll need to modify the .NIFs directly.

Here's a previous post of mine that should help:





Should work just as well for a weapon as it did for a book.

Edit- make sure you save it as a new mesh (like WeaponNameSTATIC or something) and don't overwrite the original.

Thanks!!
