Title: Red XIII mesh not working...
Post by: Sajira on January 23, 2007, 06:45:32 PM: I have been working on this Red XIII species here http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r284/Sajira_album/untitled.jpg for almost a week and I have it working in the game but it shows up as a regular cheetah with this new skin but the mesh isn't working. Everything else works I just can't gat the mesh to work. I have fallowed every tutorial I could find but none of them explain how to fix this. I used the APE II tutorial and it works but for some reason I can't get the mesh to work.

Any suggestions cuz this is my first animal and I really want it to work.

I know this is :offtopic: but how do you get the skin on the nifscope file?
