Exporting ModelsTextures from an .esp (help!)

Post » Wed Jun 20, 2012 9:41 pm

Hi all,

I am having a small problem that I would appreciate any help with.

Basically I wanted to export model and textures from existing mods in the form of .esp's (mainly models), my problem being that I cannot find a program that will extract the raw .Nif & . Dds files to import them into my own mod. (this is for a private mod, meaning I don't mean to rip other peoples work off as my own. I just like the unique models and want to us them without the various .esp's that they are associated with) I have spent many hours on Google, and its entirely possible I am just bing a complete noob, but I cannot seem to resolve this one myself.

I'm looking for (if it exists) a program similar to BSAunpacker but for .esp's rather than .esm's, or any other way to achieve the aformentioned. Much appreciated.

nifs are not contained in the esp, they are loose files either packed in a bsa or contained in meshes/textures folders.

if you need armor/weapon entries and crafting recipes from the esps, you can copy/paste the record entries in a program such as tesvsnip (just make sure no form IDs are the same) and merge them into one esp.
