Once Blender has finished reading the nif plugin files, it will take you back to the User preferences window. In the new window, navigate to the folder where you've sotred the zip file with the nif plugin you've just downloaded and select it. Select the Import-Export category from the list on the left side of the screen, and then click on the button Install from file. A window like the one shown in the picture Blender User Preferences will pop up. In Blender, select the menu option File -> User preferences. Download the compressed file containing the nif plugin anywhere you want (remember where it is, though). The process for installing the Nif Plugin in Blender 2.7x has changed from the one used to install plugins in version 2.49. Take into account that this is not a official release but that it is still under development. Then you should install the Blender Nif Plugin 2.6.0a0.dev4. Important: If you want to use a newer version of Blender, don't use version 2.76b, as the copy weights between meshes doesn't work properly. 
You can use the old and stable Blender version 2.49, and follow the instructions given here: Installation of Blender to install everything you need. Blender: Main tool used for creating the meshes, assigning weights and creating the UV maps. This will surely change in the future months and this tutorial will be updated when required. If you want to adapt existing armours or outfits to other bodies you will have to follow the steps explained here, except that you won't have to create the mesh (but you may probably have to adapt it to the new body), the textures or the UV maps.Ĭurrently the tools used for modelling are not completely adapted for Fallout 4, there are some steps that require some manual adjustments. If you only want to change the textures of an existing piece of clothing or change its properties and bonus, just skip the first part of the tutorial. This tutorial shows all the main steps you need to follow to create an armour or an outfit from scratch for Fallout 4. 3.7.2 Copy partially the weights from another mesh. 3.7.1 Completely copy all the weights from another mesh. 3.6 Reduce the amount of polygons of the mesh. 3.5.2 For objects or parts of the armour with complex shapes. 3.5.1 For objects or parts of the armour with simple shapes. 3.2 Import into Blender all parts of the body. 
In the case of slots not used in vanilla game, this guide indicates the reference usage that has been set by consensus between modders. Some of them are already used by Bethesda. This guide includes all the body slots available for armours in Fallout 4 and their standard usage.
