The point i've gotten to is converting the .blend fire to nif by exporting the mesh as obj from blender. Then importing obj in nifskope 1.2.0 and exporting as nif. This .nif file, however, does not work in the skyrim special edition creation kit, the mesh is shown as a red exclamation point.

Hi i'm attempting to create my first custom weapon mod but i'm having trouble getting the mesh from blender, (which is where I made it) to work in the creation kit. All the tutorials are horribly out of date, I've tried looking for hours but haven't gotten very far. Can anyone explain this to me on blender 2.78 on windows ten to a functional nif, or know of an up to date tutorial on this. I've been doing mod videos for a while but have recently started out modding, and would appreciate the help, thanks!
