Happy Sunday everyone. Hope everyone has had a refreshing weekend. I have been playing minecraft and Disco Elysium this past week.

    Oblivion, kinda Vanilla+. I have a depressing number of hours dumped into Morrowind and Skyrim, but Oblivion has kinda always just been "there" for me. That game that came between. I've beaten it in the past, enjoyed abusing things like paintbrush steps and all that, but never got really invested. Couldn't tell you why.

    So, I've decided to change that. Taking it slow, exploring, and just having a generally good time.

      Fancy sharing the vanilla+ mods you have? I had a collection for oblivion myself ages ago but my HDD died and i didn't remember what I added but i remember it being quite fun.

      I did the same with morrowind but that has a website dedicated to a vanilla+ modlist

        Home, wanted to give a cleaner version now. Just for awareness, I have a copy from GOG, so I have the 4gb patch baked in, but for physical copies and I think the Steam version, you'll have to grab that, too, like with most older Beth titles.

        First, running BethINI for deep ini tweaks for the base game, highly recommend.

        xOBSE, not the older OBSE.

        Unofficial Oblivion Patch, Unofficial Shivering Isles patch, Unofficial DLC patch.

        Blockhead.

        Engine Bug Fixes and Blue's Engine Bug Fixes.

        Oblivion Display Tweaks.

        SkyBSA.

        OBL Mod Limit Fix.

        MenuQue.

        LINK.

        OBSE Elys Universal Silent Voices.

        Shambles Crash Fix.

        Cornerras Maximum Compatibility Skeletons.

        HG EyeCandy Body Replacer.

        Oblivion Character Overhaul V2, OCO- Advanced Edition for bashed patch compatibility, OCOv2 - Filter Patch for Mods. This is where I needed the guide as you need to have things a certain way for WryeBash and UOP.

        New Eyes for OCO V2.

        Ultimate Leveling.

        Carry More Stuff(I use the Lite esp).

        Maskars Oblivion Overhaul.

        A Brotherhood Renewed.

        Kvatch Rebuilt.

        Immersive Weapons.

        Clearer Underwater.

        Here's a link to the Essentials guide

        I'm currently away from my laptop, so I'm going mostly off memory for now, but it's pretty basic:

        Oblivion Script Extender(OBSE), Blockhead, HGEC body mod, Immersive Weapons, Oblivion Character Overhaul, Better Underwater(removes the fog from outdoor underwater locations), Maskars Oblivion Overhaul, Ultimate Leveling customized to near Vanilla but using the KCAS wheel setting for attribute leveling, LINK, Unofficial Oblivion Patch, a few sub patches for UOP.

        If you look up "Oblivion Modding Guide Steam", that's the list I pulled from for the base setup.
