Nifskope Errors

Howdy folks, I've got a problem I hope someone can help me with.  I want to brighten up my Galactus_v2 because he's a bit dim in FF2.  The mesh works fine in game, but he won't open properly in nifskope and gives me an error message.

"failed to load block number 217 (NiSkinPartition) previous block was NiSkinData"
"failed to load nif from 'C:/Program Files/Irrational Games/Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich/Custom/Art/library/characters/Galactus_v2/character.nif'"

I can't save him after I make alterations either.  This was apparently caused by running the Python Ghosting fix.  I can't edit at least several of the meshes I ran it on in Nifskope!  What do I do?

Just saw this in your other thread

Just run him through the EZNifConvert again.  I get this problem very rarely, and running him through the NifConverter always seems to work.

EDIT: You said "the last several" meshes?  Try finding a mesh, use EZNifConvert, and see if you can edit that mesh in NifSkope.

Thanks Spyder, that did the trick!  Not only that, but I didn't realize that it would also continue to brighten the mesh more with a second run through the converter!  What a great discovery!

Does it? Wow, I never noticed that

I know, I mean, how often does one have cause to run stuff through again?  That might save me some time!
