    I've been installing Oblivion mods for nearly 3 hours before I had to go to work today.

    I installed the following

    Qarls Texture Pack 3
    Deadly Reflexes
    Midas Arcanum
    Lich King Frostmourne Sword and Armor
    The Lost Spires
    The Thieves Arsenal
    Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul
    Assassin's Creed Altair mod (lets you wear Altair's outfit and look just like him)
    Ancient Tower Mod
    Oblivion Mod Manager
    Oblivion Script Extender


    Am I leaving out any good mods? I did Google essential mod lists so I could see what was good, I was wondering if I might have overlooked some that you guys would consider essential to adding to the experience of Oblivion.

    Also when I get home tonight, I think i'll install Daggerfall Episodes 1 and 2 for Oblivion, that should be good.

    Also note that I have Shivering Isles and I also am using the 1.2.0.46 patch

    exnems eye candy, faster arrows + more damage (for more realism, if i shoot a guy in the face with an arrow he should die.) lighter arrows, way of the wild (oh, i always play a ranger btw) i think im missing something, but i havent played in a month or so so i forgot what mods i use.

    I will look into that, you reminded me that I've never played a Ranger extensively.

    Also I should add that I AM interested in extra gameplay additions, like player houses or towers, or anything that involves some kind of exploration.

    Also, I do like mods that change how you look.

    I recently installed Oblivion on my notebook, but I'm waiting for FCOM 1.0 to be released before playing :)

    Wonder why it seems like such a big thing to move out over in the States... lots of people live with their parents here - even after marriage, heh.

    Remember to get Streamline, to smooth out the games fps and the unofficial ES patch to remove a hell of a lotta bugs (they say something like 1,500
    I think)

    OMG, that just doesnt work.
