Do I dare re-open pandoras box?

OMG you reminded me of Oblivion!!

I'm still experimenting with The Sims 3, haven't yet finished the last 2 download packs of Fallout 3, am halfway through Assassins' Creed, just started Left 4 Dead, Cryostasis and Prototype....

Dang they're all awesome games (Oblivion being one of the best) and I wish that a day had 48 hours so that I can game as much as I need to game....
 
take your time, dude. there's no need to rush.
 
Yes, and when you do post which mods you are using since I've been thinking about playing Oblivion again. :D

Ket, your making me just open Pandora's box for the first time.. I've all ways thought it wouldn't be a game for me, but then again, I love longgggg a$$ games.. Something that will take my time away.. Gotta go and get it now!

:toast: to everyone in restarting the adventure!
 
You'll love Oblivion it rocks :cool: I'll have to muster up the effort to put all the mods I use together and start playing. Just a mission for me... all the mods I use total up to something like 5GB.
 
Yeah, I just gotta get some time to go and get it.. Or, I could have steam download it while I'm at work and so forth...

Yeah, I'm getting up there myself right now, got the FCOM pack and UL, and adding other things as I go, and following a decent addon ordering that is said to work, gonna try the big ones soon, then add little ones beyond that. So far addons folder sitting on my desktop is 5.24gb and theres quiet a few more addons I'm eyeing up. All these are in the goal of making an amazing MP server if I can get all those bugs worked out.
 
Bought off Steam and dl now...
 
Oblivion's a great game, try getting all the plugins/addons too. I've finished most of the quests now, right now I tried killing most of the people in the Imperial City, Anvil and all the inhabitants of Cloud Ruler Temple while I'm wearing the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal. :p


I didn't save after that though, just wanted to see how fast I can go.
 
%85 done dling.. Almost can't wait!!! lol..
 
Theres a lot of awesome mods on tesnexus, from what I've seen though they don't have quarls texture pack, borderless cryodill (essential as some mods build on the unused areas of the map beyond the invisible border) or the 4096*4096 LOD mod.

Take a look there, thats where I? got Qarl's and the boarder mod, granted I guess you can just change a text file from a 0 to a 1 or 1 to a 0, can't remember which and it will drop the boarders.
 
True, but dragging and dropping a esp is so much easier :p
 
I gotta get the mods now.. I've played about 4 hours of it and love the game so far. I even robbed a armor shop... Lol, I thought I hit it to talk to the owner and not just grab the item.. oops!

Just pickup that boarderless mod on the site I linked, it's one file you drop into the Data folder.
 
I know I have the mod already, just saying for others looking for said mods, tessource appears to not have them.
 
Ah, gotcha, you should post up your mod list, curious to see what you got as it soundsl ike your list is as big as mine.
 
I have been having problems getting Mods to run. Do you guys have a few must have Mods that are easy to install?
I have really gotten back into Oblivion, I was using it as a test game but started playing it and am now up to Lvl 14 and closing gates. I have the Knoghts of the 9 expansion but I have not installed it yet.
 
The single biggest essential mod for me is the LOD replacement. It pissed me off no end when I firsh played oblivion and had nasty low res splodgy distant textures.

Yep I second that, game looks far better with the mod. I also agree with the Kurgan about third person view animations.
 
Is that the Landscape_LOD_Texture_Replacement-2182 file of about 21 Mb size?
If so I was unable to get it to work. Perhaps I did not install it correctly but my game would not start until I removed it.
 
Shit this made me wanna play the game again, ive played hundreds of hours and didnt play the MQ
Oblivion>Fallout3

Its difficult finding some mods for oblivion now, try this link; http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2182 I don't think thats the 4096*4096 LOD replacement mod, but the 2048*2048 LOD replacement mod that was made for weaker cards. Still looks nice though, I used to use it.

On the subject of terrain mods, what do people think is the best (as in most realistic and nice looking) grass mod? I was never able to really find a decent one.
 
I usually go through they database (TESNEXUS) placing the most downloaded first then to infinity and beyond
