Help and such

[jtoney7852]

Hello again,
thanks for your help with the previous model I had. I ended up winning first place for the video, and everyone enjoyed it!

Well Im off to another project and I need help again. I am entering a contest and for this I need to put myself on one of the bridges from the Enterprise. The bridge I am looking for is the Enterprise A.

I would like to see if anyone has a bridge model available (or is willing to put one together), or to see if anyone has a good picture looking from front of back of the bridge.

Now I have located some bridge commander files which contain the bridge in a very good model. I need to find out who to convert that file (.nif) to something that lightwave can import. Is there anything that will do this or will lightwave be able to open that file?

Hmm, on my own I guess

If this is the file format you have, use Blender to read the file.

NifScope will allow you to open NetImmerse objects and save out OBJ format objects for Lightwave.

It's a little funky (you have to right-click on the mesh name to get to the export option) but works.
