=================

Requirements:

=================

Oblivion 1.2.416

=================

Details:

=================

Listed are the major changes and additions that have been made since version 1.34 beta5.

We've included a couple of new surprises. Don't want to spoil anything, but you'll find them during the course of your adventures.

- A completely new quest by Shadowborn. Without giving away too much, the quest is designed for mid-level characters. It involves the Knights of the Dragonborn and the various Goblin Tribes.

?A large selection of unique rewards for killing Gargoyles. Finally some well-deserved rewards can be gained if you are brave enough to defeat these powerful monsters. Huge thanks to bg2408 for this.

?Additional in-game hints, clues, and lore related to the some of the unique static items you can find. This will be an ongoing effort. The first of these additions is created by Dazu and relates to SunChild.

?Massive corrections to the spelling and grammar in the books, notes, and other texts added by OOO. Huge thanks to Dazu for this.

?Support for Knights of the Nine. Adapted from FCOM_Knights, this optional plugin rebalances KotN with stronger enemies, OMOBS weapon stats, and resolves conflicts with the quest rewards.

?PyFFI mesh optimizations and BSA resources! Resources optimized and moved into BSA files! This involves a huge amount of work and testing to get the BSAs working properly, including fixes for texture paths, missing mipmaps, and various mesh properties. See separate change list below for details.

?Light of Dawn sword scripts now include better detection of player vampire status.

?Removed debug comments from LapDrunkScript.

?Additional improvements for Carla Du Vrey and Hindaril.

?Additional script fixes for AMIW.

?OMOBS fixes and tweaks by BFG99.

*Optional no_daedric item plug-in. Removes daedric items from the leveled lists as requested by some users. The original hand placed items remain unaltered, as do selected enemies that carry them.

Changes related to the BSA conversion include:

?BSA compressed and optimized.

?Changed mesh and texture paths to avoid overlaps with Martigen's Monster Mod for some creatures used in both mods.

?Added mipmaps to all "worn" armor textures.

?Fixed bad texture path in the "unfinished steel" cuirass meshes.

?Renamed the "unfinished steel" armor meshes to "cuirass.nif".

?Includes PyFFI mesh optimizations by HawkerT. Optimizations include: these mesh folders: architecture, clutter, dungeons, harvest, RD, Rocks, va, Weapons.

?Added mipmaps and removed unused alpha channels from defensive staffs; removed transparency settings from NIF properties on the staffs that don't use transparency.

?New ESM/ESP is included due to changes in "unfinished steel" armor mesh paths. Plus a cleanup of many armour models.

Thanks!

=================

Installation:

=================

Due to the BSA format and it's overlap with other mods (most notably COBL and Mart's Monster Mod) it's essential that all previous versions and resource files of OOO are completely removed prior to the install of version 1.35

Failure to do so will result in many missing files and erroneous installation.

===============

Manual Install

===============

1. Extract this archive to any folder and then copy the contents to Oblivion's Data folder.

2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, and enable the Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul esm/esp file(s).

===============

OBMM Install

===============

Installing the Mod

1. Extract the archive to any other folder.

2. Copy the extracted archive to [Install Path]\Oblivion\OBMM\Mods\

3. Start Oblivion Mod Manager

4. Click the Create button

5. Click the Add Archive button, navigate to the archive and select it, then click the Yes button.

6. Click the Create OMOD button, wait until it finishes, then click the Ok button

Activating the Mod

1. Start Oblivion Mod Manager

2. Double-click the name of the mod in the right-hand side of the OBMM screen, once installed the mod icon will turn blue

===============

BAIN Install

===============

1. Copy the entire archive into your Oblivion Mods\Bash Installers folder.

2. In Wrye Bash Installers tab, highlight the new archive.

3. Check any sub-folders, ESP/ESM's as required.

4. Right click the archive name and Install.

5. In Wrye Bash Mods tab, check the ESP/ESM's and rebuild Bashed patch. (Also recommended to run BOSS first).

NOTES:
Harvest Flora version 3.01 is also included in the archive. http://boss-developers.github.io/ is recommended at all times to sort your load order, but ensure the file loads after the OOO esp to avoid the known crash issue with the harrada plant.

Living Economy - Consider using http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/25078/? instead as Living Economy has some issues, for example the 65 K bug which means that sometimes when a merchant has little money left when you sell something to them, the merchant suddenly receives around 65000 gold to barter with, instead of 0. Enhanced Economy is issue free, has many more features, is compatible with mod added items and completely customizable. Requires http://obse.silverlock.org/.

Level Rates Modified - Skill level rates are c. 3x slower in OOO than in the original game on default, but users might want to consider using http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/41005/? instead.

Updating your save to 1.35:

It's advised to wait out your game respawn (default 3 game days) away from all creatures and npc's. One way is to use the console "coc testinghall" then return using "coc Weye"

Nice, thanks for the update

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 6:15 am

Great update! Any plans to add this?

http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/45645/?

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 10:06 am

Yes, many thanks to WalkerInShadows for these fixes! Hopefully and knock on wood - this might be the final final version of OOO.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 10:30 am

Woah, trippy. Oh and fyi some of the links are broken, like the bugtracker

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 2:48 am

Is there any plans of expanding OOO changes into Shivering Isle territory?

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 9:28 pm

FYI, they're not.

No. Team Alpha is pretty much dissolved, so there will be no major updates of OOO unless some of them return and start working on it again.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:16 am

Didn't know about that one. I'll have to check it out.

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 11:46 pm

Are you sure? The bugtracker one takes me to a plain bethesda page. Maybe its a bethesda forum thing idk. I didnt mean the FYI to be insulting btw, its just how i talk .

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 9:25 pm

And that gem fix just scales down a couple gems in the case that pop out and cause like visual artifacts

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 10:10 pm

But I removed the bug tracker link from the OP when I started a new thread. A bug tracker thread implies that someone is actually tracking it. Exactly which link are you talking about?

EDIT: Ah, sorry - the very last one. I'll remove it.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 6:47 am

Wow, this is great. I'll grab this right away. I think the only missing feature of OOO was the Entropic Order added by FCOM. But then again, I'm being picky

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 7:53 pm

Thanks! Do you mean that you'd like an Entropic Order add-on for OOO? Guess you could use FCOM_OscurosOverhaul.esp and the preferred FCOM Entropic Order plugin with OOO?

Anyway, OOO 1.35a is available at TES Alliance as well now.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 12:00 am

Yes, I wish the Entropic Order were part of OOO.

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 10:55 pm

I know the eve needs a seperate patch on another page for modern Oscuros or some armors goes invisible

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 8:04 am

Yes, http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/42574/?.

Also, if using Wrye Bash there's no need for Darnified Books for OOO as WB comes with the feature and it works with all mod added books (IIRC).

As said, shouldn't it work if using FCOM_OscurosOverhaul.esp and the Entropic Order plugin (plus the FCOM bsa for the resources of course)? That way you'd get almost only that feature from FCOM w/o the need for MMM or the other FCOM overhauls.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:45 am

I'll give it a go. Hopefully the space-time continuum won't explode

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 1:46 am

Good to know. I'll edit my post.

Edit: I just realized I had the wrong link for EVE - now fixed.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:05 am

Updated from 1.35 to 1.35a. I'm missing some spell-icons (bound spells mostly). I also got an invisible spell-effect icon when a ghost casted a duration spell on me. (only the timer showed up).

I have also had weird icons for my alchemy-ingredients and potions. They often show the wrong icons. (for example restore health show silence-icon). Some are also missing. But the most weird part is that they change when i close and open my inventory. Sometimes they are right, sometimes wrong and sometimes missing.

I did not have these problem prior to installing the latest version. I'm just wondering if anyone else have experienced this? I will test this issue further in a few days when i can get the time.

Edit:

I have now tried to start a new game to see if the problem was caused by the save having the old version. It looks like the same problems are appearing. I have also found a post by another one on the mod's nexus-site, who have the same problem. Seems like he updated 1.35 to 1.35a to.

» Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:50 pm

I've noticed the missing icons too. I'll check it out this weekend.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 4:32 am

:brokencomputer:

PS:

Until WalkerinShaders does upload the corrected version of 1.35a OOO BSA, here are all the OOO 1.35a Icons in a 7z file.

Virus free, just drop into 'Bash Installers' of Wyre Bash and Install. Or unpack into Oblivion\Data.

The Icons are all extracted from OOO 1.35 BSA

http://www.filedropper.com/ooo135aicons

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 8:26 am

Thank you so much! Testing it now. Everything seems to be working now.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 12:59 am

Thanks! If it's just a question of adding those icons to the bsa, I can do it myself and upload a fixed version. But it might be a good idea that WalkerInShadows takes a look at it first.

» Wed Mar 11, 2015 1:09 am

Go ahead, Arkngt. I can't DL them myself (stupid captcha), but I can see that several spells are missing icons.
