Now, when everything is ready, save the nif file, and open CS.

Open the "File" menu, and choose "Data".

Any group of modifications to a game is called a plugin and saved to an esp file. If you want just to test your mesh, you can create a temporary mod by selecting Oblivion.esm in this list and clicking OK. However, if you have an existing mod, you don't need any help from me :)

In the Cell View select the "Tamriel" World Space, then ICWaterfront03 (you will recognize this location).

I assume your mesh already is in some Data\Meshes\Test folder (this is just an example). In the Object Window, expand "World Objects" -> Static, and then select it. Then right click on any object, choose "New", click "Add NIF File", and browse for your file. When you are done, you can also change the ID property in the editor. Click OK, and your mesh should appear under Static\Test. Then drag it to the render window. Move it with left mouse button, rotate with the right mouse button, move up/down with Z button pressed, rotate view with the shift button pressed.
