Hey I know at some point there was already a topic or something about this but I never got to look through it.

I'm thinking about picking up oblivion again and what are some cool mods I can get for it?I read I could get new races and additional content, that would be cool. Keep in mind I know next to nothing about modding pc games but I've already got the shivering isles and knight thingy expansions.

help a bro out.

Make sure you look around to find out if those are the latest versions, I was too lazy to look.

But yeah basically those two are all you ever need. OOO overhauls the entire game, making it 500.4% more fun, and MMM adds a bunch of new monsters and variation between the monsters. Now not all goblins are exactly 5 foot 1 with hex #6b8f62 skin, they are DIVERSE.

Pretty cool yo.

alright thanks I'll check these out real soon.

Do I need to install these after I install the other expansions or what.

there are no expansions for oblivion, just official mods. im sure they're mentioned in the readme's for ooo and mmm, but if not just have all of them active at the same time, if you get problems then deactivate some.

find the oblivion mod manager, its a program that allows you to edit the order mods are loaded and shows you if you have conflicts between them

Pretty sure Shivering Isles counts as an expansion, it's too big for an addon (i realize the mod manager and launcher treat it like one) and it retailed at like 29.99 or 39.99 or something.

You could sort of count Knights of the Nine too, but it's pretty small in comparison.

my point is they arent expansions, expansions tend to change the game's code, and make mods/patches/hacks etc obsolete and need changing, wheras all the "expansions" for oblivion are literally just stuff added on to the main game, ie all mods still work (unless they happen to mod the same patch of ground the portal for shivering isles appears on, etc)

if oblivion released expansions like any other game, ie WoW style or whatever, then every mod would need to be tweaked every time one is released. thankfully that isn't the case :~

I second OOO and MMM.

Also get Toastys Share and recruit. its a companion mod. that alows you to recruit any NPC who favors you. You get 4 generals and can form squads based on those 4 generals. You can share equips. tell a npc to meet you at a local in. tell them to wait or harvest. its pretty cool.
so you've come here for pointless ego boosting and happy sunshine glee? this aint deviantart man.

Try and avoid all the bethesda DLC addons. Knight/Isles aren't THAT bad but the rest are an absolute fucking joke and a waste of money.

Beyond OOO/MMM just get the UI mods that change it from the ghastly gigantic xbox inventory to a morrowind style one

man you are like the last fucking person i'd ever expect to want to play oblivion

anyhow try downloading FCOM: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/theelderscrollsivoblivion/show_msgs.php?topic_id=m-1-48544847&pid=924363&page=0 it's ridiculously complicated to get working but apparently it's worth it. i'm actually trying to do it now.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

dude don't do that. none of them will be compatible with each other and you'll break the game

it's not good enough to deal with installing FCOM. it has a very specific install order! i'm literally still trying to figure it out, but that guide is very easy to deal with.

i seriously don't understand why FCOM isn't just one big ol' download.
