If I had a PC that could run OB well enough for a TC, then yeah. Totally. It looks epic.

Looks pretty superb. I've never tried Nehrim either, but I wouldn't mind checking that out.

Looks very nice.
Any idea how big the file(s) will be?

The reason I said it was annoying was because:
I tried installing it earlier, but even when I had moved and replace the nehrim files to my oblivion folder, the game crashed on start up. I did turn off all of my other .esm's and .esp's too.

But I think its because I moved the nehrim files. Do I have to keep them in the normal installation area too? Like copy/paste the files in the oblivion folder?

plus, dynamic shadows.


Hardly.
They simply did a trick where some statics are NPCs with no AI data, and the game renders a shadow for the mesh like it would do for any other NPC. This method, however, is rather inefficient and cannot be replicated on every mesh because it would crush performance. Also, the shadows will only be facing one direction regardless of the sun's position.

Edit: I'm referring to Andoran for those who didn't read the other posts.

Yes, so far there are no mods at all available for consoles and even if that changes, I think it is questionable whether total conversion mods will be possible.

Well, I can't play Andoran. To keep me busy until Skyrim comes out, I will be playing existing Elder Scrolls games and Fallout 3, again, Uncharted 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Mount and Blade: Warband, Red Dead Redemption, some more Civilization (not sure which one), a replay of Baldur's Gate I and II, I'll be finishing BioShock, and I may play Uncharted 3 with a bit of the Sims and Tomb Raider on the side.

P.S. I need an "I couldn't care less option". The one up there... seems like the incorrect phrase. :P

No, I won't be playing any games, except Diablo 2 from time-to-time, until Skyrim comes out.

Only if there's a good English translation with English voice acting.

I doubt there'd be english voice acting, ever. Probably english subtitles though
