@ellb6 I have put back in the template we use, please fill it out with the required details otherwise we can't help with your issue.

That looks like you didn't set the game in the scene tab, leaving the nif version to be 0.

That looks like you didn't set the game in the scene tab, leaving the nif version to be 0.

Should we set a default or warn the user when not set. We have seen a few issues reported around this.

I think it might be useful to have a none/not-set game as the default. That way, we can easily error/warn if they haven't selected something and the user is forced to choose a setting.
