Hello mod makers, can anyone fix this?

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 4:53 am

I've been using a mod called "No More Annoying Messages - Lite" (http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2040) for about a month now, it's a mod that removed the "Now Loading" message when you're moving from cell to cell in the game. I noticed in it's place a ascii character was coming up instead (the little a with the circle above it), which is ironic as the "No More Annoying Messages - Lite" mod turns out to add a light annoying message regularly. O.o

I see in the original, non-lite version they had the same bug but someone had fixed it in an updated version (http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4988). I dont use this version because it removed much more than just the "now loading.." dialog.


Is there a mod maker here that would be willing to take up fixing the "Lite" version in the same manner? The mod is 1kb I couldn't imagine it taking much work to fix, though I honestly don't know because I don't know the first thing about Oblivion modding.

I think you can just look at the original mod's code and take out the bit that is what you want and then use it standalone.

But I'm not a mod maker and I don't know what I'm talking about so here's your bump.

This was very helpful, Thank You. I didnt use the mod you linked to, but the one it was based off of, "Message Remover": http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=891

Like I said in the original post, I dont want to remove a ton of messages from the game, just the "Now Loading" one as it is completely unnecessary & annoying. The Message Remover mod has separate ESP's for removing a bunch of messages, including "Now Loading", with no other crap thrown in as well.

Works pretty well so far, no glitchy letters popping up at all =)

I just wanted to mention that it's really not a bad idea to open up the Construction Set and peak around the mod in question. I did this with the Global Chest Portal mod, wanting it to spawn more than 5 portals, and my first time ever using the CS I was able to find what I needed to change within 5 minutes, and was able to modify a few more things for fun. Actually I find it kind of anologous to opening up GIMP and modifying the hue of a texture if I say, want a blue part of a shirt to be a different color. We're all a lot less helpless than we think we are !!! At Oblivion modding, at least :teehee:
