Trouble using Outfit Studio and Nifskope

I decided I couldn't wait for C-VWAS to release the FN FAL apparel, so I decided to try to hack together a temporary (and very shittty--I just plain deleted the cocking handle and something else I didn't recognize) solution for myself using DOOMBASED's assets (since that's the version of the FAL I have installed anyway...). I followed these excellent instructions to create the apparel with Outfit Studio and Nifskope, but I've hit a small snag... The parts are all lined up in Outfit Studio, but in Nifskope--and in-game--they're not aligned at all.


Anyone have any idea why this would be, and how I can fix it?

So after a lot of bumbling around, I managed to figure out how to translate shapes in nifskope (and omfg why do 3d modeling/editing applications always have such atrocious UI), and I finally got the parts... mostly lined up.

 

At some point though I managed to make it so the grip was invisible most of the time, but it could be seen if the camera was looking down from a high angle...

 

Turns out it was a "bone weighting" problem, which was not exactly hard to fix once I knew what to do (although it wasn't easy either. translating in steps to get to the middle of a shape is... trial-and-error and tedious), but incredibly not intuitive!

 

Anyway, I now have a very ugly FN-FAL apparel to wear for the time being!
