Over Haul

               <getting the bad news out...>

First thing I noticed is that you have 21 bones applied to the goatmount skin. NwN can't handle more than... 16? I think. I never use more than 15 per skin. You'll have to split up that gorgeous model and assign the deer bones.

Second is that you still have all of the deer geometry in there (including antlers). You should definitely trim those non-rendering/non-shadow shapes to the minimum needed to influence your skin.

But the "Too Many Bones" thing will crash every time. :-P

Oh! One more NwN limitation - no particular vertex can be influenced by more than 4 bones. So be careful of the overlap.

Edit: I didn't pull up the weight table (under the skin modifier) to check, but I think it's a good bet some of those vertexes are heavily influenced. :-P

               I got it working correctly now, just a few tweaks to try and make the animation look right. Thanks for the help.

               Got the goat to work correctly.I used 2 models,so the main goat will stay normal size. It looks very strange when used as a human mount (Giant). Still working on Griffon.I want to make an armored and unarmored version.

               damn that griffon is fine here. I personaly prefer a griffon that is a bit more intimidating or serious looking and not as "cute" as yours but the best griffon for nwn by far '>

               @Draygoth28, They look cool. I can't remember, have you done a hippogriff as well? If not any chance converting the griffon?

               I haven't done a hippogriff yet, but  it wouldn't be hard to convert this one. May do that next.

               A goat on Sinfar, huh? That surely won't go wrong! Nope!
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Draygoth28]

               Maybe. I still have alot of work to do on the Griffon. The Goat is done...
