I do...and I can't live without it! I have been using it since it came out in 2006...LEVEL SLOW.... http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=46

I would like to take the time to thank the creator, Tandem, for improving the fun of my game 150% over the years!

Do you have a favorite mod that is not well known?

EDIT...I forgot to mention, in LEVEL SLOW, I always used the EPIC level...makes it take 5 times longer than usual to gain a level.

EDIT 2...That is = to 4 to 6 hours, depending on the character. At least at my play rate!

Not exactly a secret, but http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9912 is always worth an ESP slot for me.

Yes, My mod.

Nun yur business bliviongate:

Thanks for the link...the ole' man is going to grow a beard...in honor of Skyrim.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17549 its not biggest favorite mod of mine but i love my companions and npc's getting drunk and falling down
and also makes skooma gives you some good effects :toughninja:

It's hardly a secret, if it ever was even, but Duke Patrick's Magic You Can Believe In caused a little bit of a stir I guess, when I posted an incomplete load order here, some time ago, and people noticed it there. Some hadn't seen it for ages, had forgotten about it, or yeah, had neve heard of it in the first place.

It could do with some more, well, just more. But what there is of it, is great. One of several of DP's mods I wouldn't go without. :foodndrink:

Who is Tandem and why is he taking credit for Bofra's mod?

I'll let someone else ask the other question. Blatant conflict of interest.

Secret favourites...has to be Extended Game Mechanics. Never hear too much about it, but it's one of my essentials.

I will ask the question then



Why don't you use Progress? Its the best skill rate adjustment mod out there.

I may be wrong BUT i'm guessing it has to do with Rocket's taste in Level Slow? :whistling:

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=20000 !!!

It came out roughly at the time when TheTalkieToaster released Spell Failure Chance - so I had to choose between the two, because both basically do something very similar: If a spell is too difficult, they give you some sort of penalty. In Spell Failure Chance, it is the chance of failure - you won't be able to cast the spell sometimes, and by chance that'll be often when you'd most need it. However in Sorcery's Toll, you'll always be able to cast the spell - you just don't know what it's going to do to you!

Back then I was ashamed to admit that I find the Morrowind-style system of Spell Failure Chance less intriguing than Sorcery's Toll. Not only is Sorcery's Toll better balanced, it also adds something very new to the game which makes it interesting for people who like the RPG aspect of the game: The choice of being a mad, power-hungry, self-destructive sorcerer, or a thoughtful, wise wizard. The chance of actually being Goethe's (or Disney's) Sorcerer's Apprentice who summons demons he can't control. You can actually feel how dangerous magic is - ever died from exhaustion because you tried to cast an overpowered spell in vanilla Oblivion? Now you can! Ever wondered what Martin was talking about when he said that daedric magic was dangerous and "friends died"? Well, he probably summoned some Atronach to his bidding and the thing turned the scene into a massacre - in Sorcery's Toll, that can actually happen. Ever came back from a dungeon and your mind was so badly affected by your arcane foolishness that you started leaking magicka... becoming transparent in the process?

I could go on. For me, the mod is one of the most interesting out there. Everytime I use it, I discover some new magical disease or some new effect that I get because I tried to save my ass using too powerful spells.

sixlivion... lol jk.
It was either that, or "The Lost Spires", but I don't know if anyone would get that joke.

Seriously though, I don't really have any secret favorites, I mean I answer those "any mods?" topics all the time, and I've posted my complete load order several times; but I guess in the same vein as the sixlivion joke..... I did like the recent Claudia s Little Secret. It's a nice non-childish, somewhat believable advlt mod

Thanks! I am now INSTANTDLing Wasted and Sorcery's Toll.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25844 is less buggy, and ehttp://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1119232-chargeable-spells-spell-failure-chance-sorcerys-toll/page__view__findpost__p__16466478 by the maker of Sorcery's toll

Replacing ST with AM

Damn, that actually does sound very interesting. I'll have to try it out, and see if there are any slight differences that are not to my taste. But I really like the idea that a chance of failure is integrated, and hopefully balanced with the other features.

So yeah, any other secret favorites? (Other than sixlivion, we all know every single person here is using it so it's not really a secret)

It's a pretty damn awesome mod that I've never heard mentioned, ever. Wait, no, there was a thread on this site about it once - but that's long dead. Anyway, what it does is it adds a TESified version of the Vampire: The Masquerade vampires into Oblivion without messing with the current vampirism system at all. Yes, you can be both a TES vampire and a VTM vampire at the same time!

The point is, Progress can be configured to exactly reproduce Level Slow... or any other similar mod... or edited to taste.

Plus I could have sworn he was already using it.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22957 :celebration: So not well known and so much fun.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6875. Somewhat of an underground favorite for me. It's the mod that provides such goodies as this: http://www.invision.tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/gallery/image/7325-something-lurks/

It's not for the lore purists due to the addition of sci-fi type elements, but it isn't extreme or in your face about that either. Well worth the download.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=7781. Just one of those mods that gives a small touch of life to the game.


Also, http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=14712. It's indispensable for anyone who wants to try to play without fast traveling.

Even from behind that Armor and Bow plus quiver look great. :drool:

Thanks for that, sounds interesting. As for mine:

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9825. This always makes me smile when I see it hanging outside Bravil, although I have never actually used it as a home, just a free bed on occasion.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3852 provides something that no other mod does as far as I'm aware. Which is to say, I would be interested in alternatives if they exist.

Complete Gardening is cool xD.
Craftybits could provide a similar feature, though, but I never used it because it is a little buggy...
It is in threads like this I gather some o the best mods

Merry Christmas everyone
