I got gatvol after going bankrupt from buying lock picks and failing at the lvl5 locks all the time. :(
 
I'll check into hectic graphical mods later, I'm still updating and testing my gameplay mods and compatibilities, Gameplay before graphics :)
 
All apart from ooo (oscuros overhaul) are a mere 600-800mb zipped. OOO mod in total is 600-800mb with patches, extracted they amount to around 5GB.
I actually downloaded all the mods (friend at work wants it) apart from ooo mod after I wrote that up, and I'm allready done :)

ooh! will definitely DL these mods for my next play though. but you missed some gems!
Mart's Monster Mod (MMM): makes you feels like you actually is actually animal life and makes it so you can live of hunting.
Elven Cartographers: beautifully coloured map
Illumination Within: A very well designed mod that makes windows light up at night, not all at once, they all on their own times and add quite alot to the atmosphere
where is my horse: adds a quest so you can find your horse every time it wonders off
Kumiko Manor: Adds a very nice manor (costs a pretty penny)
Almost Everything VWD: Fixes the view distance, now you can see buildings and trees, not smooth land, allso has a mod that works Illumination Within

MMM, is included with OOO release 1.33, well the better part of it, there are official plugins in the ooo mod for MMM :) as are is the super view distances to spot distant buildings / towns etc.
I like the HD super rez map more than the elven one, but personal preference.
Illumination within, the chimney smoke and window lighting mod is better. The windowlighting mod it houses is a remake / upgrade of Illumination within.
I forgot "where is my horse", that is indeed a handy one, I've misplaced poor Shadowmere countless times.
As to Kumiko manor. Currently my mods list only incorporates towns/villages etc, not single buildings etc. But I will check it out none the less as I will be adding singular buildings/playerhomes/castles later on. I'll update my list tonight, then start working on some more.

lol Neo, not really hey, in total, the downloads are (ballpark figure) roughly 2gb if you download extras.. That 2GB goes a long way as Oblivion aint a short game, also adds loads to the stock game, so it's going to keep you busy for a while, and you won't believe how the game has changed.
 
Thanks for another awesome thread!

Will certainly come back to this when I feel the need to play this.

Now we need a comprehensive Fallout3 and DAO mod list.
 
The Shield skins also a good one to look into, there is one for 9 skins for the shields makes the shields all pretty like.
 
Only about 2GB? That's a nice surprise! I'm fine with that!

I was reading that list and thinking : OMW - 100GB. Thanks. lol
 
LOLOLOLOL. ja they are supercompressed, unzipped its big hey :)

Try them it's really worth it, some of them are a bit of a tiff to install, so post and I shalt helpeth :D
 
I loved oblivion. Have started it twice but somehow something always seems to come up and I have never finished it! Maybe I should try for a third time with all these epic mods. :-D Thanks for the post.

But I just bought The Witcher Enhanced Platinum and have to play that first. Sigh, such a long list of games to play. I still need to finish Assassins creed II as well. Im on memory 10/14. Although its gettin a bit repetitive now! :-(

thanks again for mod list!
