[Req] Viewing .Nif files

Post » Tue Jun 19, 2012 6:36 am

Hey guys!

I'm amongst the many people who though they might like to have a crack at the creation kit and got stuck!

I've flicked through tutorials available, and i know my way around the creation kit basics.. so I'm not that much of a lost cause
but I'm having trouble flicking through the different meshes available for e.g. walls, they're so many different ones D:

I can't sit and have my computer load each individually just to flick onto the next one, is there a way i can preview each of the .nif files in a mass editor?
(kinda like you view .jpg's etc)
So i can get a relatively decent preview of the mesh before i start to load it, are there any programs available that I've missed? or do i literally have to load each mesh individually?

Thanks
-Jak ^^

You have to load each mesh individually, but you can right click on the object in the object window and click preview, that will show you the nif instantly, without you having to add it to the world.

After a while, you start to learn what's what, and won't need to rely on previewing quite so much.
