Jason McCullough's Ridiculous Oblivion Mod List - RTM Release

[Tciecka]

Torrent?

[Jason McCullough]

Violates the redistribution agreement most modders use, unfortunately. They got pretty upset about the POOP redist.

[Jason McCullough]

Bumped to V002 for the HOD 6.2 update. How to upgrade:

1. Replace HeartOfTheDead.bsa with the one in HODBaseVer6.0.7z.
2. Replace Video\HOD\Credits.bik with the one in HODBaseVer6.0.7z.
3. Replace HeartOfTheDead.esp with the one in HODUpdateVer6.2.7z.
4. Replace Data\Streamline\INI Files\sl.ini with the one in 00-Configuration.
5. Import the .olod load order again using OBMM.

Is MMM 3.7.b2 still available anywhere? All I can find is 3.7.b3

[Jason McCullough]

Looks like they finally cleaned it up and repacked the zillion files floating around. I can't take a look until I get back from Australia on the 15th.

I'd just leave it out; it should still work fine if you delete these two esp files from the Data directory right before importing the load order:

PersuasionOverhaul_MMM.esp
SM_MMM.esp

[Jim Hoffman]

This is awesome! I just bought the GOTY edition from Steam last week. (Finished vanilla game over a year ago). I downloaded a bunch of mods, installed some before learning about OBMM, and borked it up. Just downloaded and installed game again, fresh, with no mods. I know this thread started two months ago, but I just saw it now for the first time, and the timing couldn't be more perfect for me!

Thanks Jason

[Jason McCullough]

Elricm is back up.

[Jason McCullough]

Release 3. See first post.

Added Unofficial Oblivion Patch 3.2.3a hotfix
Updated The Ayleid Steps to 3.0
Updated Map Marker Overhaul to 3.1.1b
Updated Martigen's Monster Mod to 3.7 beta 3
Updated Mike's Clothes Replacer to 1.1
Updated Persuasion overhaul to 1.4.3
Updated QZ Easy Menus to 1.01
Updated Storms and Sounds Patches to 1.6
Updated Super Hotkeys to 0.54

You should consider updating to this; the new Martigen's crashes a lot less.

[magnet]

Great news, thanks Jason!

[Cory]

Is this site messed up for everyone else?

http://www.elricm.com/nuke/html/modu...tails&lid=4210

[Jason McCullough]

Yes, looks like it's horked again. I'll deal with it shortly.

[EvilTodd]

Is wrye bash still required? The site is TU, and I kinda remember that being the case a few months ago too. Thanks!

[Jason McCullough]

No, it's not. Start downloading, but don't install anything yet - I'll have an update out tomorrow night.

[Jason McCullough]

Bah, all the goddamn download links updated format. It's going to be tomorrow night before I get it uploaded. :(

So there is no world-levelling fixes in this package, right? Everyone still changes level depending on the level of the character? That was the main problem with Oblivion. Do any of the mods in this package at least mitigate this effect, I noticed there was a level-up system mod, how does that affect it?

[Moore]

Thanks jason!

[Quaro]

The ultimate Oblivion mod tool would be something that extracted an installer from an existing customized Oblivion setup. So anyone with a cool tweaked game world could run a script and generate something that other people could run to completely match their setup. Lots of people put in 30, 40, even 100 hours getting the world just right but that effort isn't shared with anyone unless you are Jason or the PooP guys.

[Jason McCullough]

AFLeveling fixes the +5 leveling micromanaging silliness, but it doesn't adjust the mobs autoleveling. Personally I don't find it a problem; the new mod set sums up to "hard and not boring" for me. The set does expand the bounds though - you'll get your ass handed to you regularly by high level roaming mobs.

Quaro, I've thought about that quite a bit at this point; Bethesda modding is a bit of a mess. There's three basic things you need:

1. A Curse-like downloader. Easy, although not cheap.
2. A giant list of hand-coded conflict resolvers. Unfortunately Bethesda's basic architecture catastrophically fails once you scale beyond a small number of mods; it's really hard to not have mods overwrite each other and break things. This is so goddman nasty its a deal breaker, really. Files all over the place, files that conflict with files in BSA, script partial accepts; gah.
3. A giant list of installation scripts. There's little to standardization on package layout or even compression format. The existing standardized tooling (OMODs, etc.) are designed solely with the intention of an expert poking and prodding individual mods.

The community has done its best, with some truly amazing heavy lifting, but it's not really possible without better Bethesda mod support.

[slikster]

Unless downloadthemall was changing file names, your scripts are looking for the wrong files. At a glance, it seems most of the problems are underscores instead of spaces.

Here is a list of mods pulled fresh from tes last night.

[Jason McCullough]

Hrm, that's odd. Rename them I guess and I'll poke at it.

[Hunty]

I still haven't played Oblivion and I really, really should. It's getting embarassing. Naturally this mod list is going to play a part in that when I eventually get round to it - thanks Jason!

Anyway, apologies if this has already been answered somewhere, but will this work fine with Steam versions or will I need a boxed copy? I know it's usually not a problem, but I prefer to double-check.

[Jason McCullough]

Works fine with all releases/packages to my knowledge.

[gigus420]

Hi im having the same prob with spaces and underscores on sum how would i go about fixing that myself?

[Alistair]

Something is deleting all the punctuation in your computer!

[Jason McCullough]

It's because a lot of the mods have LEADING spaces (wtf?) and firefox/downthemall different behavior on silent renaming. I'll figure it out and update today.

[Jack Black]

Hey Jason currently on your Manual Download list Markov Manor 1.2 leads to the Ranger's Guild which seems to have stopped hosting their file.

Can you skip this one, since it's a Quest mod, and not have any conflicts?

Also as I'm going through and trying to redownload and get this working I have found there is a patch for Qarl's Texture Pack 3 Redimized found http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.co...ionMods.Detail

Should that also be installed, or just left out until you update your list. I really appreciate what you've done and now that my last computer blew up and I have a new rig, I really wanted to play Oblivion again because of Tom and Marley's podcast.

[Jack Black]

Well the scripts don't seem to be working exactly right. I did check against each of the bat files to make sure I had the rightly named filed and adjusted the underscores vs spaces but when I ran the first mod sort and the mods were supposed to be pulled from the Downloads directory and compared the lists, it didn't pull over a number of mods that had the exact filename as specified in the downloads.

Edit: Nevermind, it's all the underscores replacing spaces through the entire file names. What a pain in the ass.

[Jason McCullough]

Yes, it looks like firefox automagically changes spaces to underscores and downthemall doesn't. I'm writing yet another batch file to fix this, bear with me.

Jack, you can skip markov just fine, but try getting it from here and renaming it.

I intentionally ignored that QTP3 redim patch because it's so minor and yet another nnoying manual thing to download. Thanks though.

[gigus420]

sweet thx for the fix i find it weird that firefox puts underscores instead of spaces
