Need Help with TESCS

Post by adventurerkilly »

Well, I searched the net for some hours, but I couldn't get ANY specific help on my greatest TESCS (The Elder Scrolls Construction Set) / 3DS MAX issue: I just can't figure out how to make descent custom meshes; I mean, I get all the theory of how to import it, but how do I MAKE them? I know how to operate 3DS MAX, but I don't know how the item graphic should be designed and constructed, what size and what scale it should have, etc...

Please, does anyone know a tutorial of how to make, e.g. a basic sword? Or can anyone give me a few tips on how to make such an item?

Have you tried working backwards - stripping the mesh for a sword out of Morrowind and seeing how it's done? Make some adjustments and then import it back in in the game.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

I have, but somehow it seems that the NIF-Plugin for 3DS MAX only enables EXport, not IMport. That kinda sucks, or I have just made a mistake and am to dumb for it....
