Skoping Heels

[marcelo]

Hola guys,  :)
How do i add high heels to a mesh -from positioning her feet and body and everything to look real and to show the heels in game - (I tried the paste branch thing and it wont work - I mean, you can see the heel when she walks/runs, but not when her feet is on ground level). Please, help?

I don't think its doable with nifskope, man. To do what you would describe, I think you would have to elevate the mesh, sans toes, up an equal distance to the height of the heels before skoping them on, and that involves the sort of shifting of structure best done with 3DSMAX :(

Well..I guess it's time i learned 3DSMAX or just give up this whole meshing thing already lol...
Anyway, thanks a lot, dude :)!!

I think this should work (but have never actually tried it):
1. Skope the heels on your originally heel-less mesh.
2. Take the Keyframes from a heeled mesh and put them with your now-heeled mesh.
Since its the keyframes that determine the angle of the feet in standing etc, that's all you need.
Pro-tip, VX meshes are not keyframe compatible with other types of mesh, as a rule, so you cant do this trick with them.

What exactly are you trying to build? You might be better off starting with a mesh that already has heels, and then skope the other pieces you need onto that.

I've tried the keyframe thing, didn't work.  :(  I had it all almost done, but I should had though of the heels beforehand (silly me, though it was gonna be easy to add them later). I'm going to try from the beginning with a heeled mesh (from the top of my head I remember Vx's, Madelyne Pryor, Psylocke X-Treme and tvlite's ) but I'd need to change the hair and add a couple more things so I'll start with Vx's and tvlite's and I'll let you know if that works out. Thanks again for the help  :thumbup: u guys rock

nah, not good. I give up. Guess she's gonna have to wear flats. Dangit, there should really be a way to do this in Nifskope!  :banghead:

batgirl classic, white queen... they both have nice heels....

[marcelo]

Thanks a lot, The_Baroness!! I might be able to work something out with the Batgirl mesh.  :thumbup:
The (ideal) mesh that I had originally been working on is Ink's WonderWoman_2, do you happen to know if there's a heeled version out there?
Thxs again  :P
