@alexanderb:When you continue

@alexanderb:
When you continue working on this check out one of my Oblivion mods.
http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/40208

I will try to make the models Skyrim ready for you to use.

EDIT:
Dam I don’t think its that easy, Skyrim only has 1 LOD texture right.
My Oblivion mod has full default textures on LOD.

Also sjors, if you wanted me

Also sjors, if you wanted me to put that mod into oblivion, all i need you to do is just copy the models over, i can then replace the current walls around IC with those and hopefully put each building in the correct place by looking at thier positions and height in TES4CS.

No I dont want to put your mod into Oblivion, thats insane.
My IC LOD mod already works perfectly in Oblivion.

What kind of texture do you need ?

My game is currently not

My game is currently not setup to do that at the moment.

I look into setting it up later, but will take few hours before I can get results.

 

EDIT:

Can you not simply rename the Oblivion textures and apply them on the Skyrim LOD meshes ?

You know Alex,you ain`t going

You know Alex,you ain`t going to believe this,but after I installed your files I suddenly thought,why don`t I do this my way.

So I deleted the lot,reconverted the oblivion.esm and them loaded the oblivion_sk.esm into the CK,then I loaded skyrim,esm [the missing master that is needed in my opion].

Saved it out as an esp,and now using that esp I can tick it and get into the game.

But no externals are showing in the CK,only land and land textures.

 So your files did not screw up my game,it fact they sent me down the right road.

Yeah I know,and thanks for helping,any idea how I can get my external objects back,as when I could not get into the game they were all there in the CK.Wierd.

And if I don`t use skyrim.esm and oblivion_sk.esm as masters to my esp,it don`t work,so I quess it needs to be like morroskyrim and use 2 masters.?

If I don`t use skyrim.esm in

If I don`t use skyrim.esm in the CK [only the esp or esm for oblivionskyrim] then I get all the castles,houses etc and the internals are ok.

But if I load my esp [with 2 masters] into the CK,then no buildings etc outside but internals are still ok.

Hope that makes sense,it don`t to me.LOL.

could be that u are using 2

could be that u are using 2 masterfiles, maybe one has a higher loading priority than the other? so i suggest just making one that loads the Oblivion_sk.esm only.

Tried that alex,but then I can`t get into the game again,I think it`s the 2 masters that allow me to load my saves.?

But hey,if I can get this working with 2 masters and get my external objects in game and CK,then we have oblivionSkyrim in the bag.

The link is above,but it takes a lot of work to get oblivion into skyrim using it,as you can see by the topics on this forum.

But we are getting there [crosses fingers].

Do you have to place every item after it's converted?  And after all that work, is it going to be like Morroblivion? With all the objects showing up and NPCs?

Has anyone tried my new LOD

Has anyone tried my new LOD files for skyroblivion? i need to know if they work on anyone elses computer besides mine when loaded. Also if u say no and had version #1 read the firstpost again i told u how to fix it. and redownload is required to fix it, because it saves the corrupted textures to the settings so u will crash if u dont redownload

Whoah, why are you using v

Whoah, why are you using v 94.  I'm pretty sure that is outdated.  Use the master Clint posted, as it works perfectly fine.  We shouldn't even be using the converter right now for Oblivion, only for Morrowind.

Alex:  I tried your old LOD, and it worked fine and didn't corrupt anything.  It looks good by the way

Also, I created new LOD using Oscape, (Thanks a whole lot for the tutorial Ramms!) however the automatic installation seems to only produce blank folders, though I know that it created all of the correct textures/meshes.  Anyone know why this is, or how to manually install the LOD (I tried, but it didn't work ingame)?  If we can work that out, then the distant LOD won't be purple anymore.

Sorry Shadow,I should have

Sorry Shadow,I should have said that I used 0.94 in the past,but I just thought he wanted a link to the latest converter.

BTW I have got it working in the game now and noticed that the trees are bare and the grass is missing,is it ok if I work on getting the trees and grass from oblivion into it.?

Also the flowers have no textures on the petals and are square,at least in my game,so I could work on those two now I have finally got in to load in game.It was my AA settings in my graphics card setting that were causing it.

I am still wearing the same armour and am carrying the same weapons like in skyrim,is that correct.?

That makes sense.  I kind of

That makes sense.  I kind of just skimmed over the last few posts, and probably should have read better.

That is great news that you have it ingame now though, and yes you should still have everything you had in Skyrim.

I not sure if you saw it, but S.B. made a new thread about the trees here that explains everything about them better:

http://morroblivion.com/forums/conversion-to-skyrim/conversion-to-skyrim/2617

I think that the problem with the plants and other objects that should have see through areas has to do with a problem with the converted meshes.  I think some value has to be changed with the meshes, but I'm no expert on that.  So if you could do that, that would be great.  Converting over some of the other missing meshes would be helpful too, if you have the ability.

Well, stoked for Obliviskyrim

Well, stoked for Obliviskyrim if Morroskyrim proves impossible (at least for a little while) with the new version of the converter...

Alexanderb:  Sure, I guess I could do that, but I'm going on a vacation tomorrow, and I can't promise that I'll get them up before then.  It is just the automatic installation fails to move the files for some reason, and a lodsettings file is not created.  Also the trees are the same because they kept the properties of the Oblivion trees, but all redirected to the same model.  So they would be easy to switch out later.

Thanks Ironman!

I'm slowly gaining some skill in the CK, so hopefully I'll be able to start work on something before classes start again next month.
