No....does'nt the setting in FOMM work? i have also manually changed the .ini too. Will happily give it a go though. thanks. *****EDIT***** NO CHANGE.

Hi, Old time player of FO3 from when it was first released.....and after an extended replay of Oblivion, thought i would fire it up again for a bit of modded fun. But, im having trouble gettting any mods to appear in game (have read through help posts) I have a clean install,patched 1.7,unofficial patch.no DLC installed yet. Using FOMM and FOSE so far.Archive invalidated and using 'live' workaround in FOMM. Game runs fine, no problem,and so far i have only tried to install stuff like coloured map and MTUI.....THEY SEEM TO GO IN OK VIA 'PACKAGE MANAGER'......but not appear ingame.I have even tried manually adding folders to DATA folder,but still no change ingame. So as i say,i have been away for a long time,and im sure its something real simple im missing.....but can someone help? many thanks.

Hi, Lets all chill out a bit.....just trying to help denraymon out. But you did'nt specify which program you meant in your first post titan,that was all i meant.We were discussing OBMM at the time. But you have pointed it out now, thanks.....and thanks to Mark for adding that extra info on the link.

291 does as well, though it sounds like he's making the changes from there already? amirite?

Im trying to build a bashed patch including COBL and MMM without getting the black eyes issue? Anyone done this with success? if so, can you let me know which files to add/not add when rebuilding. many thanks.

Ok thanks a lot. I will check out OBMM I'm not bothered about tweaking the mods at the minute so might just leave wrye bash alone. I'm bothered about the BAIN order though because the person who did the guide I mentioned said they have to be in a certain order. Do I just load them into OBMM the same as it says to do in wrye bash? THanks for the help. OBMM Oblivion Mod Manager. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2097 very easy to use and pretty indispensable.....go through the read me, but basically you download mods in .zip and .rar and can load them via 'add archive' or unzip then load via 'add folder'....it does all the data file installing straight into oblivion 'data file' for you. A lot of mods will come in OMOD ready format so OBMM can read the multiple file/menu structures. Runs perfectly well with BOSS and Wyre Bash. As i say, when you have loaded mods in OBMM, run BOSS to sort the loading order and then open Wyre Bash and you will see all of the mod .esp files in BOSS order and which ones are mergable (in green text) to build your bash patch. The bash patch will also appear in OBMM list if it exists already. Dont forget to check 'data files' in Oblivion launcher too. Not sure what program Kingtitan is on about as he does'nt specify. If you get stuck,let me know and i will try to help. Good Luck.

Hi, Not so much a mod question. Im doing a fresh install and want to use my last set of saves/character from my last install. I have pretty much created my previous mod build in OBMM will be building a bash patch once all is stable.What files do i need to copy over to the new install? (kept all the old ones). So far have copied old .ini's/textures/meshes and so on from old folders into the newly installed ones. I have a new char running just for testing,and all is running ok... but if i try to load an old save it crashes....i realise im missing something maybe from the vanilla oblivion folders? On a side note, when i exit the game (already have weOCPS installed) it now takes about 15-20 seconds to close to desktop......seems to be happening since installing UL compilation. Anyone else get this? Thanks.

Hiya, I literally started using 291 yesterday and tried to install mods through BAIN.....went badly. I have been advised that is a lot of trouble to do it this way....and stick with installing through OBMM, and follow this routine. install with OBMM then close. Run BOSS Then use Wyre Bash to build your patch and do any tweaking and so on. Beyond that, im pretty limited in knowledge as it sounds like we are in the same boat.

Noob suggestion* Is it as simple as scrappiing your bash patch and rebuilding a new one??

If you using version 293,did you see fix here? http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22368 just a thought.

If your using version 293....see here for potential fix http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22368 Not sure beyond that, im just learning myself and using 291 Try using OBMM to install mods and wyre bash to build you bash patch...thats what im being told to do.

This one is good if you are sticking with vanilla races http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25524 Beyond that,there are so many custom races.....hard to list. This one is good too,and i have played it as a main char....good stats. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34797

Hi, spent most of the night trying to get a fully patched and working clean install,and cloned in mTES4......MADE IT! DONE.....phew. Now i need some advice on which way to go with wyre bash, i have 291 293 wyre python 0.3a wyre python 0.4a python 2.5.2 which version should i use (for stability) and in what order do i install? also, have OBMM,OBSE 20 and BOSS 1.8 installed. Anyone feeling generous to help.....i will be up all night :( thanks. crudius.

ok, think i have naiiled it.....damn missing .esp for battlehorn castle! thanks to the guys who replied, really appreciate it.

reluctant to try a manual install.....if i get the same problem,its a lot more messing around to resolve and back track?

Game wont launch with supplements installed.....take them out, game works.....WTF? Little help...someone please...

I have installed this and created two clones......now i have three copies of oblivion that wont launch! looking for help,as so far my fresh install has been a f***ing pain in the arse and im getting ready throw it through the window. Clean install with (DLC/Patches) OBMM AND OBSE only so far installed.

as i say, i let it overwrite all requested in the pop=ups first time i tried to install but then the game wont launch

Hiya, Hmmm, its weird....have the Supplementals in omod format already from previous install. so dropped it into OMOD (green icon on right) clicked on it to create and i get the pop ups.....but surely i dont want to over write patch.esp's?

Hi, Doing a fresh reinstall now.... Installed Oblivion and all DLC Official patches Unofficial patches Now im trying to install Unofficial patch supplements (3.3.6) via OMOD When i create the OMOD the message tab pops up saying UOP.esp already exists, do you want to overwrite it? and the same for USIP/UOMP and then a load of text/mesh/voice file overwrites. I let it do it the first time, but then the game would'nt even launch! So had to reinstall UOP and USIP and UOMP.....and at the same stage again. Is this right? or do i say no to all the overwrites? Have installed these before and dont remember having file conflicts? and this is a clean install....

Thanks again Mark,got your PM.

Hi, Im just in the middle of a reinstall and want to make clones using mTES4.....the readme is unclear as to wether it is just Oblivion (on its own) you can clone, or oblivion with all the DLC and patches installed? Anyone reading who can answer ASAP i WOULD READLLY APPRECIATE IT! THANKS.

I was asking the same question....here are some. http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php?/topic/404886-oblivion-gate-mods/

I knew i would regret this....been messing around for an hour and still not even got 293 working...... i can feel the fun being sucked out of the game as i speak.

Hi All, Sorry if on wrong board. Im about to do my first fresh install since starting to play Oblivion on p.c. I think i have ironed out a lot of my noob mistakes/experimenting and now have a pretty solid variety and number of mods...and really enjoying the world i have constructed. I want to do a fresh install and use mTES4 to create a couple of clones for future experimenting/modding/over-hauls. Im using OBMM/BOSS/OBSE as my main core tools and learned to use them through trial and error. So im looking for advice and tips from the very helpful and knowledgable community :) I have seen and read some of the articles dotted around the web on the subject.....and if you want to post links,then post away, thanks. My main questions/doubts revolve around WYRE BASH and should i? there seem to be just as many people wringing their hands in frustartion as people singing its virtues recently. How easy would it be to recreate my current game? straightforward as i see it..... Also, any suggestions of stuff i should consider/include as im about to start a clean slate. My current load out main component mods, include Better Cities Oblivion XP MMM COBL Supreme Magika HGEC Roberts And lots of other little stuff. Thanks for reading, Crudius.
