Arvak flame color issue (changing it in nifskope)

Post » Thu Sep 06, 2012 5:10 pm

I'm trying to change the color of arvak's flames in nifskope. So far most of it has been changed. But there's still a bit of the original purple left. I can't seem to find where it's coming from. I've changed all the textures on the nif, and changed their file paths to use the newer textures, except for a few normal maps and a cubemap. I've changed all the emissive colors on it that were purple. I'm hoping that by posting here, someone might have a clue as to how to fix it. I should point out that I'm still learning nifskope, so if there's something I missed, I wouldn't be surprised.

Textures changed and replaced file path include:
gradpurpleflame01, darkswirls, fxfirescrolltile02, and candleglow01.

Here are a couple pictures on what I have so far:

Looks really cool! Reminds me of the same colour palette as an inferno from WarCraft.

I wonder if anyone has made a bone horse simply by removing Arvak's flames and retexturing his black to a bone white?

Actually, that wouldn't be too far off. I basically did get the color inspiration from warcraft 3. I probably could delete the flames and just get a simple bone horse. It wouldn't be too hard for me to get it white either. I still wish I could get this finished though. If I can get the rest of the purple gone in its flames it opens the oppurtunity for other colored flames as well.
