When I have seen Shikishima saying in a FCOM topic: "Aw man, yet another "It's all FCOM's fault" thread. Really, FCOM gets an unjustified bad reputation because of threads like this one and others in the same vein." I totally agreed so I wanted to say that my FCOM install is ULTRA stable. And with this occasion I wanted to thank all you modders out there for all your hard work in making Oblivion such a wonderous game. And I am not gonna make just this general thank you but I will specifically thank the creators of the mods I played so far.

And you players out there can thank in this topic other moders of which mods you played and liked.

Hmm I hope I didn't miss anybody. So that is all the thank you I give for now but once I enjoy other mods I will surely at least thank the mod authors for their great and appreciated effort. THANK YOU ALL MODDERS! :foodndrink: :bowdown:

And please other players post your thank you's for your favorite modders in this thread so they can see again that they are appreciated.

Ah and thank you The Nice One for Enhanced Economy, a truly great overhaul of the economic system, and I love the questing giving me an impulse to visit the ruins.

Thank you Ervvin for my Ayleid Steps without which I never play. :foodndrink: Arthmoor for Faregyl and Vergayun and many other things I also never play without. The many modders who create wonderful resources that I get to play with in my own mods. :foodndrink: Oh hell I could be here all night. XD


:bowdown:

Thank dreamer2008 for taking the time to express the appreciation. It's always nice to see that.

there are too many mods which i must say thank you to all the specific modders, so i'll just say it in general.

THANK YOU ALL, everyone, I don't think i could name enough names, from the mods i play with, to the mods that i want to play with, and all those other mods ever since oblivion came out in 2006. These mods are really a difference, and how many times have people said "I won't play oblivion without xxx mod", so thank you to all modders/support with all things oblivion, I really really do appreciate it very much, and hope that oblivion doesn't die in many years to come!

Aww. I wuv seeing this kind of thing. Not that I'm a modder, mind you.

So I'll just pitch in with a "Thank you!" as well, to all the dedicated modders who make a great game whole magnitudes more amazing again. Your work is very much appreciated, by many of us.

I usually don't get a chance to express thanks to all the great modders out there as often as I should, so as long as there is an active thread for this:

• Thanks to all the people involved in the creation of Unique Landscapes, they have really changed my game in a subtle, but spectacular way! The only reason I say subtle is because the landscapes are so beautiful and fit so naturally, you wonder why they weren't this good in the original game. I'd hate to have to go back to the original game world after my eyes have seen all this detailed, unique beauty, they are ruined for vanilla Oblivion!
  
  
• Thanks to the creator(s) of T.I.E.; Veritas_Secreto, CorePC, Arthmoor, Ismelda, and others for such a dynamically different gameplay for my new chars; no more level scaling or predictable enemies! Thanks for delivering the buttkicking time and time again!
  
  
• -Thanks to BAB's body team, I know it's one of the older body mods, but I still use it and am still happy with it, though we have a variety of other great body mods out there! And thanks to all the folks who have made BABarized clothing and armor!
  
  
• -Thanks to TGND body mods; though I don't use it at the moment, it's got one of the best female backsides around and I always enjoy the screenshots!
  
  
• Thanks to Robert's Body, for allowing variety so my Barbarian can look buff and tough, and my Warlock char can look lean and mean (and still be a sixy beast!) :wink_smile:
  
  
• Thanks to Emma for so much you have done for Morrowind and Oblivion modding. Thanks for not being a stranger to Oblivion and improving my experience with your Vilja, the most lifelike, sweet and sassy (and needy!) companion I have ever known in The Elder Scrolls!
  
  
• Thank you Grumpy, for your Wolf (Spot) and other companion mods (some of the original companion mods as we know them), R.I.P., old boy. Hope there are Elder Scrolls games in the Afterlife!
  
  
• Thank you to the folks of Advanced Windows Lighting System for a such a great town atmosphere!
  
  
• Thanks to Max Tael (wherever you are) for the great Natural Environments mod that I still use for seasonal weather patterns, birds and bugs; and was able to update the weather thanks to whoever fixed the bugs for the updated version!
  
  
• Thanks yet again to Arthmoor (you cheater! You're everywhere!) for the wonderful Cyrodiil Travel Services mod so I never have to use that accursed vanilla Fast Travel again!
  
  
• Thanks to the creator of Neeshka, whom I recently added to my game!
  
  
• Thank you to the unsung heroes of Oblivion modding who have created the Unofficial Oblivion Patch and patches for the DLC!
  
  
• Thank you to the makers of LAME and Midas Magic for allowing my mage char to survive (sometimes) in the harsh unforgiving world of TIE!
  
  
• Thank you Illiana and all the people involved in Anequina, and other Elsweyr based mods.
  
  
• Thanks to everyone involved with Oblivifall - I hope Daggerfall will someday have its VENGEANCE! :liplick:
  
  
• Thanks to theKarithian for the Awe inspiring Mesogea mod. I hope to be a part of its development!

Thanks to the original modders - the people who first realized you could use the editor to make new quests for Daggerfall!

And let's not forget the original creators of the Elder Scrolls, Bethesda Softworks, both the current team, and those who have moved on, for Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, Redguard, Battlespire, and Oblivion! And the other travels game I can't play due to not having the right phone. Thanks for making a life-changing game, as involving as "the thickest, most involving fantasy novel!" And thanks for allowing us to edit that novel and create our own worlds!

Thanks to so many people who I have forgotten or could not remember their name off hand! You guys are what keeps the Elder Scrolls alive!
:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Thank you for thanking me...I was involved in UL...years ago!

Although I did not do any actual modding...I ran the thread and was an idea monger.

Thanks to Corepc for being helpful and having a patient mindset throughout the years(and putting up with my old MMM issues XD) and just generally not being stuck up or hard to approach.

Thanks to Tomlong for creating a large comprehensive guide to pretty much everything oblivion and the modding scene, installing, troubleshooting, etc and continuing to work hard on it.

Thanks to Blade Mercy for his guide to minimizing the evil archenemy of us all know as Crash To Desktop with his 50+ steps and the people that contributed to it.

Most of all dev_akm.

I was gonna make a thread like this early last week but we had a bad storm here that knocked out our power for several days. By the time it came on I forgot about it.

ANYWAYS

Thank you to everybody who works on the UL team. Man because of all of you I can't even look at my 360 game anymore.

Thank you to everybody who works on OOO, MMM, Warcry, Frans, FCOM and any other of the FCOM mods I forgot. When I first found out about how you can add mods to Oblivion the screenshots of all the new creatures and armor is what caught my attention.

A HUGE thank you to everybody on here be it mod creator or poster that has helped me with setting up my game to what I originally wanted when I first saw screenshots of mods used in Oblivion.

Thanks to the FCOM team, the UL team and the team working on Better Cities for helping me make a stable game and pointing out when I had forgot to do a simple thing like changing a name of a BSA because I forgot to do that step.

I am happy that you think it is nice and I am more that satisfied knowing that at least I can bring at least some minor pleasant feeling to you great modders with this thread.

Also I would like to add another Thank you for Paul 'Simyaz' Thomson, this time for Tears of the Fiend, a great lengthy mod, which adds some of the things I love most about RPG's - choices, choices, some interesting puzzles, and a very interesting story that draws you in :foodndrink: .

And please other players, if you like some mods and would like to thank the modders for their effort please do, because I couldn't possibly play all the great mods that are out there, and I am sure that some modders would like this little gesture, as you can see above.

Just think of the 360 Oblivion as a REFRESHER to get you interested in the game!

I want to add another BIG THANK YOU for Emma that created Vilja, a companion that is simply amazing. I love a lot of things about her, especially the very pleasant comments. She makes Oblivion feel even more alive and its a pleasure to have her around and hear her talk. :foodndrink:
