Hello, can someone help me with importing meshes to Fallout 4?

Hello, sorry if this isn't the right area, I couldn't find anything fitting, and the NifTools Forums are dead, so here it is I guess.

 

Okay, I'll start by saying I'm decent at 3D modeling, I've only been doing it for about a month and I can make pretty good meshes but I don't understand how to properly export things.

I use Maya 2016 and I installed the NifTools Plugin so I can export in a .nif, and I'm exporting in the .nif version for Fallout 3, apparently that's compatible with Fallout 4, so people say anyways.

That's all fine and dandy, but where I really get confused is when I loaded my .nif file into NifSkope, I have no idea what I'm doing, flying blind so-to-say.

I tried watching tutorial and reading online about it but I'm completely confused. Can someone please help me understand this better? Thank you.

There is a 3D modeling forum here, but you would probably get a better answer to your question by asking in the 'Mod Talk' forum of the game that you are modeling for. If you can not find the proper place then let me know the name of the game and I can re-direct you.
