3D modeler - open for commission.

So I lost all of the mod progress I made in Creation Kit. I don't know why it wouldn't load my parts into the object template despite displaying properly. I spent all day today setting everything up and trying to power through it, all for what? I feel do defeated. I just kinda wanna die.

Words cannot describe how much I hate Creation Kit right now. Besides being a general pain in the ass, didn't load my weapon parts on the object template because sure fine ok another problem, then killed itself when i tried to save. Like nobodys going to care about this mod anyways whats the point

I was hesitant about using NifSkope for so long because parts would be imported in wrong positions and every tutorial was like "yeah just reposition it by hand." It's because some of the nodes aren't zeroed. Like now I can actually accurately position my parts. Why didn't anyone tell me this sooner?

3DS Max 2013 is part of the official work flow for Fallout 4 because of a plugin for .nif files. Surely it's not still like that, like please tell me they weren't using 2013 with Starfield. You can't even officially get 2013 anymore.

These games are like the antithesis to me; slow, not action packed, requiring a lot of reading. And yet they are heavily influential to the kind of writing and worldbuilding I really love. Also the RPG mechanics and the way everything is itemized is really cool to me.

Giving myself a headache trying to figure out how to improve my designs. There a million and one ways and I don't know the right one. I'm scared of under or over designing and scared of getting bogged down in a long project with no return. Focusing on anything is hard.
