hey guys i have an iMac 27-inch with mac OS X and i have oblivion for it. i dont know how to get mods on it! please post detailed easy to follow instructions, and a link to download them for the mac. and one more question: if i download regular mods, would they work for mac even if they were meant for windows?

[Fonger]

since mods aren't written for an operating system

but rather are written for the game

try installing them

look for the data sub-directory in your oblivion directory.

k will do! thanks

I don't think that you will be able to run mods that require OBSE however...

[SubZeroSniper99]

so to "install" it i should just copy and paste the file in the data folder?

[SubZeroSniper99]

obse? what is that?

[Shadowfen]

obse? what is that?

OBSE is a scripting language extension for Oblivion which allows mods to be able to do things that were impossible with the basic script language Oblivion came with. It is a windows dll which hooks into the oblivion program so that "extended scripts" inside mods are recognized and run properly.

hmmmm... that might work for me cause i have this folder in my game called "transgaming" and from there it goes to the c drive, just like in the windows version of the game...
and is there a certain process that i have to go through to actually "install" the mods?

OBSE will not work for you unless you have a Windows version of Oblivion for it to work with.

i found a way to get the mods in for mac! you just have to create .txt files in these folders and boom! i already have several working 100%! but ttheyre probably regular mods! but thanks for helping
