Doumo/ thanks. ^_^ - Kielanai - 10-06-2006
I think I finally have it working without anything missing at all three sites. I have been moving my PC in -- about 3/4 done! Once I get her moved in, I will attempt to get the new models in the game and texture them. I'm not sure I can do it, but I'll give it a try. The teapot worked, but the obachi and kimono attempts didn't. (I tried to move a kimono from Morrowind mod, but it was really bad.) -_-*

I keep telling people, when I'm trying something new, that I won't know whether I can do it until I try. Its amazing how much I can do, if I actually attempt it.
You are doing great Kielanai.
- Kodama - 10-06-2006
Yeah, we are all learning a lot about modding, i hope that you can texture the static models Kielanai.
Clothing and armor is not as easy to get in game, but the buildings are the most important models for our mod right now.
Akavir would not look like Akavir if we use the vanilla Oblivion models, we need japanese houses in game, i could create a large city in no time if i had the models.
I could also place a lot of npc's, but i have not tried to make npc's have a life yet, i'm not sure if that's easy to do.
I can only work with obj files. - Kielanai - 10-07-2006
I couldn't open the max one. I can try again if the file is converted, or if someone can get a main model in the game, I can retexture it.
Is there anything already in the game you need texturing?
- Kodama - 10-07-2006
Well that's the problem Kielanai, we have a lot of models but no way of getting them in game yet
But do you think you could retexture a creature for us?
If we can make the Xivilai have a red skin and give him a tigerskin loincloth, it would look just like an "Aka Oni" :chaos:
I could then make him a bit bigger then the Xivilai and make him stronger too, that would be cool :bounce:
Progress Slow ... -_-* - Kielanai - 10-09-2006
I'm working on trying to texture the Japanese items, but I'm having to slow down and look up tutorials. Sorry it's taking so long. Is the Aka Oni based on something already in game, or is it new? If it's already in game, I think I can do it because I retextured a tiger. If it's new, it might take a little longer to get the hang of what I'm doing.
Newbie, newbie, noob, noob ... -_-*
- Kodama - 10-09-2006
Yeah it's already in game, there is a Daedra known as a "Xivilai" ...you can retexture that model, just give him a red skin, and give him tiger pants.
Don't worry about it when it's taking a long time, all of our progress is slow
And don't call yourself a noob, you are doing great, ok? =)
AkaOni - Kielanai - 10-11-2006
Please tell me is this okay for AkaOni?

If it's too patchy or blurry or the tiger skin isn't realistic enough, I can try again. It wasn't too difficult.
Do I need more than one mesh to make it complete? When I reskinned the tiger, I had to do a head, paws, and something else, but it transferred those mesh to the others. This one had a lot of meshes, but also had a complete one, so I chose it. I'm not sure if that's enough for in-game play.
(Still experimenting on the other things, so I thought I could finish this first.)
- Kodama - 10-11-2006
I could not open it with nifskope...strange ?(
Anyway, i used photoshop to take a look at the textures, yeah this is what i wanted, thanks :goodjob:
I would have to see it in game to see if the textures need more work, but i think it looks good already.
I don't know if you need more meshes, i think this is fine...but i'm not sure

Bad News - Kielanai - 10-13-2006
It didn't open in Nifskope? That is strange. It worked fine for me. I have no idea where to look for that problem, and unfortunately I can't work around it now. Today I was planting bulbs in my front flower garden for next spring when my neighbor informed me that the housing complex I live in is giving everyone until December to move for renovation. I'm very, VERY mad at the moment because no one from the office bothered to TELL ME!! When were they going to tell me? The day they come to kick me out?? If I had not met my neighbor outside tonight, I still wouldn't know about it!
So, anyway, I have to accept the new housing or look for other housing, and I have two cats, so that isn't going to be easy. Then, I have to weed, sort, clean, and pack my house for the move in about a month. X( This is a big problem for me, but it also means that all the projects I had planned on for this month and next will be put on hold until this matter is solved. I'm so so sorry! It's sudden for me and sudden for you, but there is nothing I can do. If the project is still going on when I'm done, I will still be glad to help, but right now I have to spend my evenings preparing to move.
