Oblivion Vanilla Enhanced 2017
An up to date, ENB compatible guide focused on improving Oblivion's visuals without drastically altering anything from its original appearance. This guide assumes that the user has Shivering Isles and KOTN installed, anyone that doesn't can just skip over the DLC related mods though. Oblivion Reloaded isn't included, but given its popularity I'm going to mention which mods to ignore if you want to use it with this modlist. Any mid to high range pc should be able to get very good performance using this guide. CPU matters most for Oblivion and using an i5 4670k @ 4.0 Ghz I generally get a solid 60 fps at 1440p. For the best results this is meant to be followed from top to bottom, though you can skip over any mods you don't like or replace them with an alternative if you want.
Feel free to use the mod manager of your choice while going through the guide, but I'm going to assume that the user is installing everything manually and will only mention using a mod manager when it's necessary. Before starting, it's a good idea to install the game outside of the Program Files folder so you don't have to deal with any UAC issues. As you follow the guide, unless I say otherwise you should just download and extract the mods to the appropriate directories, overwriting anything that was already there. 7zip is a good program for dealing with zip files if you don't already have one.
For those who may be interested, I've also made a short gameplay enhancement guide based around Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul (OOO). Despite being a gameplay overhaul, OOO also includes some visual modifications of its own. So to keep the two guides compatible I'll make note of the mods you can ignore that would be redundant when using OOO.

Tools
Name | Description | Installation |
---|---|---|
BOSS | Used to automatically sort the load order of your plugins. | Download "BOSS.Archive.7z" and extract the files to a new folder. Rename the folder "BOSS" and move it to your main Oblivion directory. Run the program with BOSS.exe. |
Wrye Bash | Mod manager that is also used for creating the Bashed Patch. | Download "Wrye Bash 306 Standalone Executable" near the bottom of the page and extract the Mopy folder to your main Oblivion directory. When you open Wrye Bash for the first time, right-click the top bar and uncheck "Lock Load Order". |
TES4LODGen | Used for generating distant LOD objects. | Download the main file and extract the exe to your main Oblivion directory. You should rerun this program anytime you change your load order. |
Landscape LOD generator tes4ll-v5 | Used for generating distant LOD meshes and normal/color maps. | Download "Landscape LOD generator 5_03" at the bottom of the page and extract the files into your Oblivion/Data folder. Rerun this program anytime you download a mod that changes the landscape. |
Multi Purpose GUI | A GUI for running tes4ll. | Download the main file and run the setup.exe. I would suggest installing the program at Oblivion/Data/ini/tes4ll for ease of use. |
4GB Patch | Allows users with a 64-bit(x64) operating system to use more memory when running Oblivion. Don't use this if you are on a 32-bit(x86) OS or if you're unsure. | Run the program and select your Oblivion.exe file. |
OBSE | Oblivion Script Extender adds new scripting functionality to Oblivion and is a requirement for many mods. | Download obse_0021.zip and obse_loader.zip at the top, and extract them to your main Oblivion directory in that order. Click yes when asked to overwrite. |
MoreHeap | Supposedly makes Oblivion more stable. | Download and extract the dll file to your main Oblivion directory. Run the game once and you should see a "MoreHeap.ini" show up in your Oblivion directory. Open the file and change both values to 768, save and close. |
(Optional) Oblivion mod manager |
Very simple mod manager for anyone not using Wrye Bash. | Download the full manual version and extract to your main Oblivion directory. |
OBSE Mods & Unofficial Patches
Name | Description | Installation |
---|---|---|
EngineBugFixes | Fixes bugs, as you may have guessed from the name. | Extract main file to Oblivion directory. Find the EngineBugFixes.ini, open and set all the patches at the bottom to 0. If you understand what they do and want to leave them enabled then go for it. |
Oblivion Graphics Extender | Oblivion Reloaded's predecessor. Obviously you want to skip this one if you are using Oblivion Reloaded. We'll be downloading the core-retro version and using it solely for better quality water reflections. | Download "OBGE Core - Retro 3-0-0" from the Old Versions and extract only the OBGEv2.dll to your OBSE/Plugins folder. Run the game once to create an OBGE.ini in your Documents/My Games/Oblivion folder which we'll configure later on. |
Oblivion Stutter Remover | Prevents or mitigates a number of issues related to stuttering and framerates, and can reduce the frequency of stutter related crashes. | Download "OSR_4-1-37" and extract the Data file to your Oblivion directory. Open the sr_Oblivion_Stutter_Remover.ini and make the following changes: bReplaceHeap = 1, fMaximumFPS = 60, iHeapSize = 768. You can change max fps to anything you want. |
OneTweak | Borderless windowed mode + no crashing when you ALT+TAB. | Extract the OneTweak.dll and OneTweak.ini to your OBSE/Plugins folder. |
Unofficial Oblivion Patch | Fixes lots of stuff. | Download both files and extract the Unofficial Oblivion Patch to your Oblivion/Data directory. Save the QTP3 Compatibility Patch file for later. |
Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch | Fixes lots of stuff in SI. | Download and extract. |
Unofficial Oblivion DLC Patches | Fixes lots of stuff in the DLC plugins. | Download and extract, goes without saying but you should only use the esps for the DLC that you own. |
Base Texture Packs
Name | Description | Installation |
---|---|---|
really textured normal maps | SI skip weapons, armor. normal skip trees | Extract the OneTweak.dll and OneTweak.ini to your OBSE/Plugins folder. |
qarls texture pack 3 | Borderless windowed mode + no crashing when you ALT+TAB. | Extract the OneTweak.dll and OneTweak.ini to your OBSE/Plugins folder. |

INI Tweaks
You can find your Oblivion.ini file in "\Documents\My Games\Oblivion". I would suggest setting your ini to read-only once you've finished making changes, so that the Oblivion launcher doesn't overwrite any of your settings in the future. You can find your OBGE.ini file in the same folder, no need to set it to read-only.
