My First Mod completed (Need help)

[OopsXP]

Ok, so here is my first mod ever (Sorry for the water mark, I was mass converting pictures to JPG), it's just a simple re-texture of drk937's mod. I don't plan to upload it since it isn't really worthy (I also don't have permission and not really sure to ask since it's ported from Oblivion) but I thought I would share it with you while I ask some questions about uploading future (Most likely a lot better) mods.

1. How do I save a mod as a whole if you know what I mean. It's simple enough for me to edit them once their in my game but how do I make it so it can be Un-zipped and stuff, please add all the details, like I said this is my first and I don't have much experience with this stuff. :confused:

2. I noticed another image that I didn't read about in the guide, it controlled the way light shines of the blade, hilt and sword. What is it and is there a guide on how to edit it, do I even need to?

3. Is it easy to make future mods compatible with NMM, if so how?

 

Thanks for any advice it is truly appreciated... :biggrin:
