Advanced Member Shawn Driscoll Posted April 21, 2017 Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I was curious if there was a NIF export for 3D-Coat. Been thinking of making textured meshes for Skyrim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Percevan Posted April 21, 2017 Member Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 not that I know of, sadly. I do Skyrim assets too, often from 3D coat, but I still has to send my stuff to another DCC software which has a nif plugin (Maya, in my case).

Advanced Member Mystical Posted April 24, 2017 Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 I've been currently creating a scratch made weapon in 3d coat for Fallout 4 (uses the NIF model type too). I just export my file from 3D Coat as a OBJ file and then using 3DS Max NIf plugin convert it there. I don't think a NIF plugin for 3D Coat could be made unless it was created by someone in the Skyrim/Fallout community similar to how the 3ds max and Maya ones were.

Advanced Member Shawn Driscoll Posted April 26, 2017 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 I don't have 3DS. That's why I was asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Mystical Posted April 27, 2017 Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I think there is a mod called bodyslide for Fallout/Skyrim that has a nif exporter built in. You can just drag and drop your obj file that you exported from 3D Coat and then save it as a nif in that program. I think there are some YouTube videos that go over how to do this.
