Not sure if you should post this here or in the Oblivion Mods subforum, so please move it if I picked the wrong one.

A couple of days ago I noticed I still have oblivion in my computer and decided to re-play it. So I'd appreciate if anyone could indicate me a few mods to make it look as good as possible and maybe improve other things aswell.

So far I have:

Lush & Gaudy Floriana Gloria

Oblivion Character Overhaul v2 (this one made characters look as real pple, really liked it)

and new textures for caves and ayleid ruins

I usually dont like overhauls or mods that change gameplay too much, but might be willing to try. I'd love some armor/cloths retexture and maybe better combat animations.

Thanks in advance

MMM, Finger snap animation(Awesome!), hand to hand animation replacer, sun glare, low poly grass, shorter grass, real lights, natural weather, spell delete, better fire, Dark UI'd Darn, trollfs loading screen replacer for Dark Ui, Smarter mercantile levelling, no weight arrows, faster arrows, harvest flora, harvest container, streamline, fast exit 2,

Can't think of more right now. I'll add more when I get home. These mods are essential for me. I can't play the game without them. Especially Dark UI and Real Lights. If you need help with installing Dark UI, I'll be haply to lend a hand.

Texture wise, many swear by Qarl's Texture Pack 3 (QTP3), either regular or redimized. I myself went another route and use a wise combination of high res textures from many sources. My wilderness is mainly a combination of Darooz and AmpolX. Mikal33 has some very nice individual city HD texture packs.

The Unique Landscapes series can really perk up wilderness scenery. I use only about seven of them, but there are more. Likewise Better Cities or Open Cities might appeal to you. To help conserve system resources I went with ImpeREAL City - Unique Districts (which is also incorporated in Better Cities). There are body replaces, available in either undies or nvde variants.

You might want better quality LandscapeLOD. Nowadays the utility tes4ll lets up generate our own LandscapeLOD meshes. Several tools deal with corresponding textures. Or you might select one of the available-for-download ready-made texture sets. Just be aware that the read-made sets, regardless of quality, won't exactly match what you see up close unless you don't run Unique Landscapes and/or other wilderness altering mods.

Bomret's Detailed Normals are a good recommendation for anyone, since they don't slow game performance. Load them early, so your hi-res textures will override them as needed.

-Chasethecamera mod
Fixes the 3rd person camera without any major change. Best camera mod I've seen and used. Been using it for 20+ hours and still no problems with it.

-Realistic levelling
Best levelling mod. It makes the levelling like in Skyrim. No need to count levels. And a skill that raises to 7 doesn't make as much level progress as a skill that raises to 93.
