By QuetzlsacatanangoI have gotten a lot of questions related to this lately, so sorry to all my e-pals who asked and I never replied.This is how I do armor mods. I don't know jack about weapons, besides pointy end goes toward bad guy. These instructions are for blender, I don't know anything else. These instructions are also really only for using existing meshes in your armor.
Not for creating anything from scratch. I am the Christopher Tolkein of meshes, what can I say? I can't make anything new. These instructions are applicable to either Fallout3 or New Vegas, I'm sure the process is similar for Oblivion as well, though I have never tried it. Additionally, this is basically the same process for converting armor to different base bodies if that is your goal.It should be read as basic info, to do relatively simple things (if I know how to do it, it's basic:))1) Import the body you want your armor to fit (type3, breeze, etc).
And all the meatcaps.2) Import the armor that has the piece(s) you want. Delete everything of the old body, the meatcaps from this body, and all the bits of armor you don't want. Repeat step 2 until you have all the bits of armor you want.3) Unhide everything. This should leave you with a body and an armor that probably doesn't fit.4) Hide the meatcaps on your body.5) Tricky part - Massage the armor as necessary so that it fits the new body. It will be relatively easy if it's a mesh from FO3, a bit harder if it's from Oblivion or some other game. Remember that the part of the body that you cant see doesn't matter, you can delete those vertices if they clip through.6) Once everything is fitting ad looks how you want it in game, unhide your meatcaps.7) Select all meshes8) Import the fallout 3 skeleton and click the 'import skelton only + parent selected meshes' button. By default, it is in the Fallout - Meshes.BSA, so you will have to extract it with FOMM.
It should be located in meshes/characters/male.9) Select skeleton only and export. Here are the export settings I use successfully:10) Open in nifskope, select the body portion and change the shader to shaderskin. Make sure shader flags shadowmap and sfwindowenvironmentmapping are checked. To find the shader info, expand the nitrishape/nitristrip, and highilght BSSHaderPPLightingProperty In the block details, you will see shadertype and shaderflags.11) Under spells, select 'update all tangent spaces', otherwise you may see weird rings and whatnot on the skin.12) Save.13) Right click on your nif and view in geck. If it showed up both in nifskope and geck it will most likely work in game, which is the next step. You can create a new esp that adds it to game, replace an existing armor with it, etc. You will most likely want to put the armor through various contortions and see what clips, and have to go back to blender a few times to fix what you see.14) Share your new creation on Nexus.Main keystrokes needed for Step 5:hold down middle mouse button and drag to move viewright click - selectmouse wheel - zoomtab - change modes (edit mode, object mode)g - grabr - rotates - scalec - center on cursorh - hideIn edit mode, look for an icon that looks like a bullseye.

This is proportional edit, and it is your friend. Mouse wheel adjusts the edit radius. It took me about a year to discover proportional edit.Most of the time you are good to stop here. But what if you don't want it to look just like regular armors? Here's how to go about a retexture:1) Open mesh in nifskope2) Highlight the part you want to change. This will also highlight the nitristrip/shape. Expand that and expand BSShaderPPLightingProperty.
Highlight BSShaderTextureSet. In the block details, expand 'Textures'. You will see a purple flower, and most likely the path to the textures the mesh is already using. First will the be diffuse map, which is the one you want. Go to that directory in explorer (or extract it from the BSA) and save it in a new place.3) Edit it in photoshop, or gimp, or paint.net PS and Gimp need a dds plugin to read dds files. Paint.net reads them natively.4) Save your new texture IN A NEW PATH/FILENAME5) Change that path in your nif to the new texture you just made.6) Save the nif. There is also a way to make new texture sets in GECK, but I think it's kind of crappy because no one else can use it unless they use your esp.FAQQ - 'I get an error on export, vertex does not belong to a body part.'
A - In the lower left you will see a vertex group menu. Body parts will start with 'BP'.
Choose the one that is appropriate for the offending vertex, and click 'assign'.Q - 'I get an error on export, vertex is unweighted.' A - Right next to vertex groups is Materials. Just click 'assign'.Q - Going into the game every time to test is a PITA. Is there a better way?A - Select the skeleton and press ctrl-tab. Then use your g and r keys on various bones to grab and/or rotate them.
This is a quick way to check for obvious issues. If you see clipping here you will almost certainly see it in game. Make sure you don't save any of those movements. You just want to check.Q - I moved some vertices (especially on the z axis) and now I get unsolvable boobage/cooter clipping or male equivalent.A - In object mode, select the part of the armor, then select the body, and go to object - scripts - bone weight copy.
Try quality 3, update selected, and click OK. This is actually a good thing to do on anything that should strictly stick to the body.Q - I can't even install blender/nif scripts/etc to get startedA -I always just try to install blender first (32bit only, nifscripts don't work in 64bit blender). The installer tells you what is missing, and I go install those things as they come up. They take you right to the download page in most cases.
Contents General information, andPower armor is a multi-component armor unit, comprised of a, with assorted armor pieces mounted on it. For power armor to function it requires a as a source of power, which drains over time; actions that consume will increase the rate of depletion. Once depleted, the unit will still be operable, but movement is heavily restricted as it is a dead weight.Comparison to previous portrayalsPower armor in Fallout 4 requires no training to use as it did in and, and is unique in other aspects as well.Firstly, the separate armor segments are mounted on a frame, as opposed to previous suits which existed as holistic entities that were worn whole, aside from the helmet. The individual armor pieces can be reclaimed from deceased persons, however the frame cannot be recovered as the corpse cannot be ejected from the frame.Secondly, characters interact with the frame in the world to use the power armor, instead of equipping the power armor via the inventory.
Power armor now uses fusion cores as 'fuel' to power them for a few hours. This is similar to how T-45d was supposed to use small energy cells as a fuel source in.Once the fusion core is drained (or if there is no core installed in the armor at all), the user will still be able to slowly walk in the armor, but will be over-encumbered and unable to use Power armor negates falling damage, as well as damaging others near the point of impact.Third, however, is the most 'accurate' rendition to date with regards to the size of the armor, its general movement and abilities.
Unlike the descriptions regarding power armor from previous Fallout games, the power armor frame does not appear to make use of any recognizable form of unified hydraulics system for strength enhancing purposes, although they could somehow be contained within the armor segments or the base frame itself. It instead appears to solely derive its strength boosting abilities entirely from servo motors strategically placed within key points of the frame.Finally, instead of gloves and boots, the power armor frame has a set of fully articulated mechanical hands and feet, which mimic the wearer's hand and foot movements via controls in the shins and forearms. This increases the wearer's arm length and overall height by approximately one foot.Power armor is capable of boosting the 's strength beyond the normal limit of 10, potentially going as high as 14 with the appropriate modifications. Wearing power armor negates any bonuses given by standard armor.Power armor helmets have fully functional headlamps that are used in place of the lights, which is disabled while wearing the armor.Unlike previous renditions of power armor, each power armor piece has its own hit point counter which depletes as damage is taken, as opposed to being spread across the full suit. Broken power armor pieces cannot be mounted on a power armor frame, but can be dropped and displayed. They can also be sold for the same price as a piece in perfect condition.In Fallout 4 power armor has had several alterations in regards to its physics (as the frames with their plates affixed are heavy enough to crush by stepping on them).
This weight adjustment renders the wearer incapable of swimming, with the user instead walking across the bed of any given body of water. This makes wearing power armor at places like risky as falling off the walkways will cause the wearer to sink to the bottom and have to walk to shore.
Handheld or wrist mounted weapons such as, cannot be equipped due to the significant difference in fist and wrist size.Power armor also completely negates all fall damage, with or without any pieces of armor attached, enabling the wearer to hop down from even the tallest of skyscrapers without any harm to either health or the armor itself. This however, causes a very loud thud, and will alert any nearby enemies of the player character's position. Landing on or in close proximity to an enemy or even friendly NPC deals a great deal of damage to them from the fall as well, which may cause them to become hostile.The elevation indicator on the compass disappears while wearing power armor, making all foes appear as if they are on the same floor on the compass.
All distance values disappear as well, which can potentially result in some unpleasant surprises when marked threats are actually much closer already than one thought.CompanionsCompanions can be instructed to enter power armor via the companion command system. This is done by selecting Talk when facing a companion, the instructing them to Enter power armor when the player character's crosshair is over the power armor suit they wish for them to occupy. Certain companions (e.g. Nick and Hancock,) will remove the helmet by default. One can force them to wear the helmet by equipping it from the companions inventory, as with standard armor pieces. To have a companion exit power armor, select the Talk dialogue option and Relationship will have been replaced by Exit Power Armor. Some companions however are unable, or will refuse to use power armor.will refuse to exit his power armor and cannot be assigned to another suit.
His power armor also does not degrade from combat or fall damage.Companion worn power armor does not drain the fusion core if it has one installed and can use core-less frames without penalty.Maintenance and modificationThe parts may be repaired and modified at located around, where a power armor frame is installed at, or within close proximity of the station. The armor and frame can neither be renamed nor scrapped for component materials.
Power armor stations can be built at locations under the crafting tab in mode, if the player character has the necessary.There are six tiers for each power armor piece, each granting higher damage resistance and health. The amounts of materials required for upgrading power armor pieces are fixed for each specific item, which means improving an armor piece from tier E to F has the same material cost as upgrading it from tier A to F. Depending on the player character's current situation, it might sometimes be wiser to postpone the next upgrade until higher (or the maximum) ranks of and have been unlocked in order to save resources.
This is especially true for the more advanced power armor models as they require much larger quantities of increasingly rare and specialized materials for their upgrades than for example T-45 or raider power armor.There are several that can be installed in various pieces.Each model of power armor (except the raider power armor), can be modified with a unique, most of which are acquired by progressing through the questlines of the four main factions. Some paints (Minutemen, Railroad) unlock after only a handful of quests while others like the Institute Paint require the completion of the entire corresponding questline. All of them grant the wearer a bonus to a specific SPECIAL stat if all six armor pieces are painted the same:. The increases Charisma and is exclusive to.
