Here is one:

Have in mind that this is pre-construction set modding and you need to modify hex values to get things right. This is not mesh or texture modding though purely replacing or adding objects to the game.

It can be a pain to begin with, but if you put your mind to it, everything will become clearer in time.

 

Programs needed:

fnvedit

tessnip/fomm

 

Optional:

skyedit (is very good if you want to mod item properties rather than placing new objects)

skyviewer (mine does not work no matter what i do, but i know a few people uses this one as well)

 

If you are looking for 3D mesh creation or modification:

you can also find seperate tutorials for blender and 3ds on the forum, maya does not have any good nif plugin to work with, at least i did not find any.

 

for texture modding you will have to search abit, but texture modding needs nifskope as well.

 

Programs needed:

nifskope

tessnip

blender/3D studio Max

 

I did not gather everything, but you need to search the forum, there is good tutorials for each kind of modding.

If you are looking for Construction Set tutorials to read up before it's out i suggest trying G.E.C.K for fallout new vegas/fallout 3

There will be guides for the new construction set once it's released in january.

 

Hope some of it helps. :)
