Template:Portal:Modeling/Description
Modeling is one of the ways to create custom graphics for Oblivion. Creating and editing models is done with a 3D model program, but some simple modification can also be done with NifSkope. NifSkope can also be used to view the stock models by extracting the BSA Files and opening the Nif files. A 3D model is covered by several texture maps that give the model color, and other properties. These are associated with the model in the Nif file and stored in the Textures directory.
