» Mon Apr 04, 2011 7:32 pm Makes Oblivion classes really stand out from each other, just like in Arena and Daggerfall.
Author: Zenshinzenrei
Current Version 0.24.08 BETA
Requirements:
Oblivion v1.2.0416 (The latest patch)
OBSE v0019 beta3 or higher
*Class Advantages uses Event Handler functions that are only available in OBSE v0019.
Description:
Class Advantages introduces special advantages to the predefined Oblivion classes in order to make them more unique. Advantages are similar to special class traits from Arena and Daggerfall.
In Oblivion classes differ in name, starting specializations, attributes, and major skills. The biggest difference between classes, however, is the rate of increasing skills, which depend on a class' specialization and major skills. For example: A Thief's Sneak skill will rise much faster than an Archer's. While they both major in Sneak, Thieves specialize in Stealth (Archers specialize in Combat).
But since player characters may be able to advance any skill and attribute they choose, all game classes end up being similar in the long run. An Archer will eventually catch up to a Thief's Sneak level, provided the Archer is commited to raising the Sneak skill, or has enough gold for training.
Class Advantages provides classes the advantages that will make them stand out from each other. A Thief will have an advantage using the Sneak skill by having its movement speed increased in Sneak mode. Even if the Archer equals or surpasses the Thief's Sneak skill, the Thief will always have the advantage since that is one of the skills a Thief specializes in.
Every player class or NPC class has three predetermined advantages. Some advantages assigned to Oblivion's player or NPC classes are tailored to make them similar to the classes in Arena and Daggerfall. At the same time advantages are also assigned to match a class' specialization and/or skills.
Custom class characters (player only) will be able to choose from a list of advantages. Advantages may have prerequisites that depend on a character's starting Specialization, Attribute, and/or Major skill.
Some advantages are designed to be used by the player only. Some classes shared by both player characters and NPCs will have alternate advantages assigned for NPCs.
Advantage Types:
Advantages come in two types: Passive and Active.
Both provide constant effect abilities that modify various character stats. Passive advantages are automatically applied. Active advantages, however, require specific actions to toggle an ability. Advantages cannot be dispelled under any circumstance.
Passive Advantages
These abilities are automatically applied and require no action to take advantage of their effects.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated. I am very close to releasing a beta but I do need help on the final part of this project. If anyone could advise me on how to get NPCs in a cell (or a small cell within a worldspace) and iterate through them, that would be great!
EDIT: Current version is under closed Beta testing by the wonderful folks at the TES Alliance Beta Testing Guild.
After playing Arena I realized that classes in Oblivion felt so bland.
