:Sounds awesome, this is some great stuff! Great work. NifScope desperately needs a "comprehensive guide", in my opinion, that simply describes what everything does (as opposed to a long tutorial, that you have to read through to get the information you want - useful in some situations, but frustrating when you just want to look something up). This is awesome.

:Good work. Some observations:
:*Spelling. NifSkope!
:*It might be better to give a general download link, like http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=149157&package_id=170735 instead of the link for 0.98 which can quickly become outdated.
:*The XML Checker can be used not only to find errors in nifs, but to find all nifs in a specified folder, which contain a specified block (use Block Match, uncheck 'report errors only')
:*I'm not sure what exactly is the function of the .kfm files, but I think the kfm window can't be used for editing and creating animations. This can be done in the Block List and Block Details windows.
:*There is one good animation tutorial: [[Basic Animation Tutorial]].
:*Render menu -> Settings, Culling options: see the tooltips.
:*File menu -> Resource Files: find bsa files, for example for handling textures which aren't extracted. I'm not sure if it's fully functional.
:*Spells menu -> Sanitize -> Adjust Texture Sources: replaces / with \\ in texture paths, sets texture format options for Oblivion nifs, for example Pixel Layout to 6, Use Mipmaps to 1, etc.
:*Spells menu -> Sanitize -> Check Links: confirmed. It reports error if a link points to a nonexistent block, or if a link points to wrong block type (for example if a bhkCollisionObject is in the Children array of a ninode).
