Topic: Bounding boxes

[abenavides]

Fixing a few things in the FF classic mod and need bounding boxes on a couple of meshes

Is there an easy way/Tutorial on doing this (I only have niftools)?

Hey Alex

I was waiting to see if anyone else would reply, but its pretty quiet around here lately.

It's been a long time since I've worked with things, but could you simple take a character with a bounding box, delete the character and then import  the new character in to use its bounding box?

If not, I know that I could do it with Blender if you wanted to send them my way.

Hey thanks for the response. I'm trying to do it on a couple of portal markers.
If you can help, let me know where I can send them.

Thx!

Hey Alex

 I never heard back from you, but I learned a little bit more since then.

Open 2 nifskopes, one with a bounding box and one without. On the render drop down, up top, you can check "show hidden" to see the bounding and selection boxes.

On the nif with the bounding box, find and select the box's top branch (should say "ninode bounding box"). Its attached to the armature master. Right click and copy branch.

On the other nif, select the armature master (IE bip 01, or whatever its called) and paste branch. The box should appear attached to the armature.

You'll need to find a good fit between the two. I know how to resize a box in Blender, but i've forgotten how to do it nifskope.
