New to modding, need some tips and/or tutorial links

Hello all.

I'd like to try my hand at creating a small clothing/armor mod for NV. I would greatly appreciate any links, feedback, pointers, tutorials, etc on the matter. If anyone has a link to a YouTube tutorial for novices, that would be ideal. I've got the specific item I want to use as a texture base in mind, but I'd like to give it different stats, abilities, and a color tweak.

Thank you in advance.

This is all going to be overwhelming if its your first time, but what the heck. I'll give you a brief (very-brief) explanation of what you will need.

 

FNV Geck: Lets you make mods. You will use it to create the item, assign stats and ability. This is the *easy part.

 

NifSkope: Lets you edit 3d models including textures. You will create a new texture (.dds file) and you will point the model to that texture under the texture list. Don't change the _n map unless your texture is dramatically different.

 

GIMP: GnU image manipulation program... A lovely piece of software that deserves respect. You can use this to do image manipulation and then export to .dds format.

 

As for finding links, I leave that to you! (Because that would take forever to find)

 

-Good Luck!
