Ailurus · « **Reply #54 on:** February 03, 2007, 01:50:07 AM »

my animal does not appear in the window on blender, I can get it in nifskope but in blender i do not get the animal like the zebra on page 1. All i get is a few lines and a couple if 3D triangles. please help

mikaboshi · « **Reply #55 on:** February 03, 2007, 01:53:21 AM »

you need to select the animal in the middle of all of those triangles (its in there i promise) and then go to view > local view

yinyangwolf · « **Reply #56 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:03:24 AM »

I can't get the animal into NifSkope. I just have NikSkope, no Blender, no 3D Maxis, JUST NIFSKOPE. I know somebody already asked a question like this, but they had Blender. I looked in the entites folder in the ZT2 folder, but nothing's there.

MM2 animals cannot be opened in Nifskope.

The way to open Nifs in NIF skope? Right click the NIF file and go to "Open With" and scroll to Nifskope. Viola

If you have something else you need to say, please use the edit button instead of double posting, which is against the rules. Thanks. Mika
Sorry, my bad. Oi, I am crazy

mikaboshi · « **Reply #59 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:27:44 AM »

entities > units > animals > AnimalName

it is in the files of whatever xp the animal came with. Lion in ZT2, Wolf is ES, Gerenuk in AA, etc.

yinyangwolf · « **Reply #60 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:39:09 AM »

I looked in a folder called "xp". There were three things, a DDS file called "EndangeredSpecies_icon.dds", an xml called "es" and another xml called "zoo2". I clicked on es, bu there was nothing about animals there. Now what? Sorry for all the questions, I am a total novice

mikaboshi · « **Reply #61 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:44:38 AM »

Zt2: entities.z2f
ES: x100_000.z2f
AA: x110_000.z2f

yinyangwolf · « **Reply #62 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:57:34 AM »

What do I open it with? I tried Internet, but it didn't work.

mikaboshi · « **Reply #63 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:58:07 AM »

WinRar.

I opened x100_000 in WinRar and found the animal, that's all good, but there's no "Open With" option! I cvan't get it into NifSkope.

Man, this is:sweatingb

mikaboshi · « **Reply #65 on:** February 03, 2007, 06:31:35 AM »

You have to extract the file to a location (make a copy)
Then right click the Nif NOT in WinRar.

where abouts is it in the triangles?

mikaboshi · « **Reply #67 on:** February 04, 2007, 01:45:42 AM »

In the middle. You have to find a tiny bit of it sticking out...not always an easy task lol

Ailurus · « **Reply #68 on:** February 04, 2007, 09:36:28 AM »

cool i will try thankyou. also can you edit models on nifskope?

Gloria · « **Reply #69 on:** February 04, 2007, 01:04:59 PM »

Yes, you can, but you have to do it one vertice at a time and the vertices aren't labeled so first you have to figure out what they are. Really tedious and time-consuming, let me tell you. 0_o I've tried it with mixed success, but I just don't have enough time to fiddle with it these days.

Ailurus · « **Reply #70 on:** February 04, 2007, 01:08:47 PM »

how do you do it because on mine whenever i click on the animal it just rotates a bit.

also the animal definitely doesnt appear in the blender on my comp there is only a cube. i think it is because the plugin that i downloaded didnt work, when i click on it it says you muct have blender to install this to get blender go to....

Opening it in WinRar is the only way I can open the .zt2 file! Wait, that's the right location of the NIF file? x100_000 or something right?

ShenTirag · « **Reply #72 on:** February 04, 2007, 02:29:44 PM »

yinyangwolf: You have to actually -extract- the NIF file. This means, when using WinRar and locating the NIF you want, clicking in the file and dragging it to another destination, or right clicking the file, select Extract to the specified folder, and chosing where to extract it to. THEN you can open it in Nifskope. Extracting a file from the .z2f in this way does not delete/remove the original file, therefore it is a copy.

yinyangwolf · « **Reply #73 on:** February 05, 2007, 03:36:19 PM »

I don't see a NIF file. Just some .bf files, .bfm files, .dds files, .txtkeys files, NetImmerse/Gamebryo files and an XML document. Which one do I want?

mikaboshi · « **Reply #74 on:** February 05, 2007, 03:43:22 PM »

NetImmerse/Gamebryo file = NIF. Net Immerse File. NIF
