    Just Got Oblivion on P.c what mods do you recommend and how do you install them

    First get Oblivion Mod Manager or OBMM... this well help you to install mods without screwing up your install or creating conflicts. Also, get Darnified UI. It will give you a much more PC friendly inventory. I'll post some more later, if you're interested. I'm getting kicked out of the...

    Morrowind Reboot?

    This is exactly why I only buy games like this for the PC. Modders have already brought Morrowind's graphics up to the level of Oblivion, complete with high-res models, textures, and grass.

    Beastman Feet

    Interesting explanation for the leg change by Bethesda. I would argue that M'aiq demolishes that explanation (I am assuming that the re-occurring character is somehow related the the previous M'aiq's). Morrowind - beast feet, Oblivion, Skyrim - human feet. I think a great solution would be...

    Beastman Feet

    If the animations were done right, it would be awesome to see. Maybe even just not allow footwear or create a beast-man only version of the gear. On the flip-side, since Khajiit and Argonions tend to fall into thief type roles, blending in is paramount, and the old-style leg shape definitely...

    Beastman Feet

    It was a change made back when Oblivion came out to make the footwear models fit correctly. It used to bug me, but considering how awful the beast races walking animation were in Morrowind, it may have been a good decision overall.

    Captions gone?

    Every time Steam has patched my copy of the game, it seem like the config file gets set back to default settings. I have to turn captions back on every time.

    Skyrim "Hardcore" Playstyle

    Using the cart to get around is perfectly legit. How many rules you choose to adopt is, ultimately, completely up to you.

    A world without loot. Or, at least...

    I see comments like this, and I feel it kind of misses the point. Any player can place as many restrictions on their play as they choose, but the most important missing ingredient is consequence. Imagine if vampire's could go out in the daylight and never had to feed and never changed...

    Skyrim "Hardcore" Playstyle

    Great list. Very similar to my play style. I would say I probably go a little more overboard with my inventory system, though. I pretend that I have a backpack and try to picture what the stuff I'm carrying would look like in the pack. If it is full, then I am done until I sell or take...

    Does Skyrim have anything similar to the Mages tower, and Fighter's Stronghold DLCs in Oblivion?

    I didn't care much for mages in Oblivion so my memory is rusty, but the Archmage's quarters in the College of Winterhold seem like a simpler version of the Mage's Tower in Oblivion. There is a central herb garden, enchant and alchemy stations and it is technically a tower. Also it actually has...

    A world without loot. Or, at least...

    The problem with all of these ideas is that it puts the player in balance with the world instead of letting him swoop in like some mythical Greek god. Most people do not want to be just another soul in Skyrim, they want to know that their most menial of achievements seems god-like compared to...

    Pipe Dream Extreme Ad

    Phew...I had no idea I was missing all this excitement. Usually ads like that are all over less than reputable sites, so I hope they go away quickly. It doesn't bother me on a personal level, but I can completely sympathize with those that it does.

    A world without loot. Or, at least...

    I agree and disagree... the economic model is definitely broken to be sure, and it is way too easy to throw 5000G at a house with no worries. I would really rather wrestle with the idea of needing a house, but realizing that spending that gold represents a huge chunk of game time I spent...

    Your most hated and beloved enemies

    Loved: Dragons - As a mage, I have a myriad of choices for how I want to handle any fight, so when I go up against Dragons, I like to use my lower end destruction spells to draw out the fight as long as possible. Hated: Draugr - There are some things in gaming I really need a little break from...

    Tips for: House - Item Placement

    Option #2: Pretend a ghost is set on sabotaging anywhere you choose to live... Jk... that's a really weird thing for Beth to not fix considering that this is a role-playing game. Why would a person who buys a home not be free to decorate it as they see fit? I hope that a patch addresses the...

    Any developers here?

    I would like to throw my hat in the ring for modders looking for 3D modeling. I am pretty rusty, so I would want to start with simple models (weapons, buildings, things without moving parts) till I get back in the swing of things. I would also prefer someone else handle texturing.

    UI mod

    I used to do some coding in Flash back in the AS2 days. I stopped using it as I started using HTML 5. I was looking forward to the death of Flash and now I find it is baked into a game I will likely play Until TES6. Maybe I will dust off my books on AS3 and take a look at some of these UI files.
