** As with the Blender 2.49b-only process, Fallout 3 bone names are in use. Change them back to SBP_31_HAIR.

** '''Vertex colors will likely be exported incorrectly (converted to all white), and this is significant in that it will cause you to lose your alpha. I'm not sure how to address this at this time.'''

*** It's also worth noting that even Blender 2.7x doesn't really ''support'' vertex alpha. It supports multiple sets of vertex colors, so the newer NIF scripts split the RGBA colors into two RGB sets for Blender (and in Blender 2.7x, these are recombined on export). This means that while editing your meshes, you can see the texture-based alpha but not the equally-important vertex alpha.
