They are idiots who have installed this on default without experimenting with the settings.

Streamline 3.1 - People will tell you this slows down your game.

Oblivion walking sounds are bugged and will weigh down your soundcard without this.

Quiet feet - DOUBLY REQUIRED for LAPPYS.

LOAD IT FIRST (Boss will tell you so too :-P ).

Hrmn's Oblivion Script Optimization - Keeps your scripts from being stupidly long and slowing the game.

Especially if you want to have alot of mods, are running it from a Lappy (like me) or have an older computer Oblivion is a stuttering nightmare without these add-ons. Only texture files for bodies, faces, maps and plugins for OBSE should be uploaded directly into your Oblivion directory now. Otherwise your oblivion folder will become a tangled mess of unwanted files. Make sure you do everything through OBMM so all mods can be easily removed. These are extensive and contain links to many thousands of modsĭownload Unofficial patches. Buddah has one on TES Nexus and there are others to be found. unless you are a masochist.ĭown load some mod lists. YOU WILL NOT ENJOY A HEAVILY MODDED OBLIVION WITHOUT THEM. These will take you an hr to setup and install and they will save you ungodly amounts of time and frustration.

OBSE - Scripting software needed for most super cool mods.

Tes4edit - Tells you what mods are conflicting.

BOSS - Auto sorts your mods with one click.

OBMM - for installing and organizing mods.

I know its a hassle but trust me you will thank GOD you did in the end.

It is already the recent version and patching it with the official patch will destabilize your game.Īfter Installing Oblivion, download these programs. DO NOT PATCH THE GAME OF THE YEAR ADDITION. STOP!! Did you buy the game recently? Most of the articles are old and they will tell you to patch it. If you put it in program files, Vista is going to give you hell every time you try to mod it if it even runs at all. This should make Vista happy about modding and altering the game. Instead make a folder in your User partition for Oblivion. First DO NOT install oblivion to program files.
