I keep seeing OMOD, OOO, UOP, and all these other acronyms but nobody ever defines them. I can't even find their definitions on google. So what are they?

omod=type of mod created with obmm (that one you will find on google, recommended to easily install and remove mods)
ooo= Oscuro's oblivion overhaul
UOP=unofficial oblivion patch (highly recommended)


edit:a search tip-add 'oblivion' to any acronym in google

OMOD is the format http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2097 (Oblivion Mod Manager) uses to allow easy installing/uninstalling of mods, http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15256 (Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul) is a popular overhaul mod and the http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5296 (Unofficial Oblivion Patch) is a mod that fixes many bugs in vanilla.

That was helpful. I finally know what the 'z' in 'relz' means :mohawk:

Thanks!

Glad to be of service.

Hang on. Joining date in 2007 and you're still a novice on these forums?

You really should stay in more

I put the game down for a long time, just started again a few weeks ago. I got sidetracked with the Total War series, and played The Witcher for a bit also.

I've never beat Oblivion, and most mods are very mature now, so it is the perfect time to play again. (and my new hardware helps)
