I've taken it upon myself to fulfill this request, to give myself a crash course in converting meshes from Oblivion. I am required to contact the author of the mod for permission before uploading it, however (assuming I can figure this out in the first place).

After a whole lot of trial and error using tools I've never even looked at before, I've managed to hammer some screws in. I managed to convert the mesh from Oblivion to Fallout, but the sword cannot be picked up if dropped in the game world and the placement of the hands is off.

I count this a small personal victory, but I'll keep working on it if people are still interested or can tell me how to fix it.

 

 

Edit: I figured out how to move meshes around in Nifskope relative to the center point, so both hands are now on the grip. Now I just have to make it play along with Havok.

2nd Edit: I have the mod finished, and I've attempted to contact the original author. I'll upload it when I have his permission.

If you used NIFSkope it's very simple. And the reason it may not appear properly in the world when dropped is because you forgot to add a "world model" in the geck art and sounds options.
