Oblivion:Unofficial-Hishutup-1.0.0

Complete Oblivion Modding Guide

What does this guide entail?

This guide is here to be an up-to-date Oblivion modding guide that is exclusively on STEP. This guide does include recommendations from other guides and the credit will be given from where I found the original content. This is supposed to be community driven meaning, the community is going to take charge of how this guide is formatted, the content in the guide, such as, mod descriptions. If someone has a better way of doing things then post in the provided topic when I get it going but if I don't then PM me and remind me as well as a question/recommendation. "FIX LATER" 30+fps

What about lore and the mod content?

This is mostly going to be lore friendly but not 100% because every mod author has there interpretation of how Elder Scrolls should be played.

Where do the links go?

A majority of the links to the modding pages are directed to the Skyrim Nexus site.

Is this modular?

Sadly, no but when I find a good way to do a modular set up I will hopefully get something together.

"FIX LATER"?

Those are markers for me. I can do a simple search and find areas to fix. Ignore it and the couple of incomplete sentences that follow it.

Mods that are not going to be included at this time.

Better Cities: I chose this because it will cause the frame rate of the game to drop to around 15fps.
