I've followed this tutorial ( http://cs.elderscrol...:_Custom_Shield ) to the letter but have come to a point where his screen shot does not match my screen.

Here is a screen shot of his screen shot of where I should be at and my nifskope window next to it

Any idea where I'm going wrong?.. Thanks

Looks like your UV map is wonky. You can edit the meshes UV map by right-clicking on it, going to texture, and then clicking on Edit UV Map.

how do you mean wonky? I just put a quick random dds file over it because I wanted to learn to put a custom shield in the game before I out effort into creating my own.

hello??
