Models Settings¶
load unsupported nif files¶
| Type: | boolean |
|---|---|
| Range: | True/False |
| Default: | False |
Allow the engine to load arbitrary NIF files as long as they appear to be valid.
OpenMW has limited and experimental support for NIF files that Morrowind itself cannot load, which normally goes unused.
If enabled, this setting allows the NIF loader to make use of that functionality.
Warning
You must keep in mind that since the mentioned support is experimental, loading unsupported NIF files may fail, and the degree of this failure may vary.
In milder cases, OpenMW will reject the file anyway because it lacks a definition for a certain record type that the file may use.
In more severe cases OpenMW’s incomplete understanding of a record type can lead to memory corruption, freezes or even crashes.
Do not enable this if you’re not so sure that you know what you’re doing.
To help debug possible issues OpenMW will log its progress in loading every file that uses an unsupported NIF version.
xbaseanim¶
| Type: | string |
|---|---|
| Range: | |
| Default: | meshes/xbase_anim.nif |
Path to the file used for 3rd person base animation model that looks also for the corresponding kf-file.
Note
If you are using the COLLADA format, you don’t need to separate the files as they are separated between .nif and .kf files. It works if you plug the same COLLADA file into all animation-related entries, just make sure there is a corresponding textkeys file. You can read more about the textkeys in Animated Creature via COLLADA.
