Sinking through the floor like that can be a mod problem. I would suggest that you uncheck Better Cities and see if the pirates bounce back to where they're actually supposed to be. If not, I would try disabling all mods and reabling them one by one and loading up the game in between each reable to see what is effecting them. If nothing, it might just be a strange glitch? Or, since its not that big of a problem, you can just leave them be.

Well, you'll have to be veeeeeeeeeeeeery patient if you expect to see me release any mods... Haha. :D I've actually managed to discover how to open up stuff in the CS, but other then that... well, I'm working on it. ^_^

ThePearl&dezdimona, ah, thank you, that seems to be the problem. (: No wonder I couldn't get it to work.

After having played Oblivion for a few years and Morrowind even longer before that, I decided to open up the CS for the first time ever today (never really felt the need to before). It was complete gibberish to me, but then in the end I found the little "Help" button at the top and started reading through the Tutorials. No dice. I do what the Tutorial says, and the picture on the tutorial shows that I should be able to see something in the Render-window when I drag and drop things from the Statics-window. Yet, nothing. Am I doing something wrong, or is there something wrong with the editor? How should I go about fixing this? And for some reason, I am unable to open up any Oblivion files in my CS, it seems only to recognize Morrowind. How do I get to the Oblivion CS? Or do I need to install something new? Blah, this all just seems waay too difficult for me. ^^''

I'm really a total wuss - all my dungeon-crawling is sneaking around rendered either 50-75% (or more, but I don't really like 100% where I can't see my hands - it makes it really hard to fight) invisible or chameleon and shooting things from behind corners with a well-aimed arrow. And if somethings manages to see me before I see them, or manages to survive my first arrow damage + extra sneakattack damage and comes running at me, I pull out either dual-wielded shortswords or a one-handed longsword. Usually the longsword, so that's what I put up for the poll. Longswords are nice and pretty. I can basically fight with any melee weapons and win the fight, but longswords have definately been the preferred method since day 1 back in Morrowind.

Varla, Welkynd and Sigil stones as well as armor, jewels, weapons, jewelry and clothes (I just love all the different kinds of clothes... :D) are all part of my collectionitems.. ^_^ Morrowind was awesome, I would steal the pillows from everywhere I saw and in the end I ended up having over 7000 pillows in one room of my house, all stacked on top of each other up to the ceiling. It was AWESOME! In Morrowind I also collected all kinds of Dwemer crap, especially the coins. And then of course I had a full set of every armor and every weapon type in the game.

This is what UESPWiki has to say on potion weight. Have you made the same potion with heavier ingredients before? That would be the cause of your problem.

After 100, I your Speed and your Strength etc still get better - you can still run faster, you can still carry more stuff, you can still get more health and more magicka. But there aren't any more skill perks, and things like Mysticism and the other magic-casting-skills, Hand-to-Hand and Blade really don't get any better anymore after you level them over 100. I guess theoretically you can deal more damage, but in practice when I've tested it out my character with level 255 Blade skill still takes the same number of hits to kill the Gatekeeper as my level 100 Blade skilled character.

Here in Finland, at least, we have it for sale at most game stores. o_ô GameStop, GameStore, Peliaitta etc still all sell them. I don't really know about the rest of Europe, though. You could always order it online.

UESPWiki is a really great source for all kinds of stuff, and you kind find the lists of creatures there as well, with their levels and all kinds of info on where to find them etc. Vanilla Oblivion Creatures Shivering Isles Creatures These (of course) don't display mod-added creatures. Mods like MMM and FCOM (haven't tired FCOM, but I have MMM and works great!) also add more creatures, some more challenging than the Vanilla ones.

I once filled Lake Rumare with watermelons. Spawned 30 000 at a time using the console, did this maybe 10 or 15 times and my computer got sooooooo slow. But yeah, I achieved my goal, the whole freaking lake was full of watermelons. :D Using Unnecessary Violence and killing guards and other NPCs with stuff like oranges, cheese wheels and apples is loads of fun. Blackberries work too. I can entertain myself for HOURS if I have about 700 cheese wheels - I climb (or TCL...) the wall at the Arcane University and pummel people down below with cheese wheels! Yaaay! The NPCs start running around and yelling "HELP! SOMEONE'S BEEN MURDERED!" but the guards can't catch me and just give me more targets. <3 Gotta love UV. Oh yes, and shooting an arrow straight up in the air and trying to get it to hit yourself straight through your head is loads of fun. I actually managed it once, I was so excited. ^_^ And once a random dude named "TEST NPC" or something like that fell out of the sky with an arrow through his chest when I was doing this. o_O I resurrected him with console codes and he turned out to be a beggar, or atleast have the voice and clothes of one. It was quite wierd.

My most epic kill was probably when I was fighting a few guards in some town, and one of them forces me to talk to him while I had an arrow in like "ready position" to shoot. I tell him I'll surrender, and after the conversation exits the arrow goes flying through the guard's head and immediately I get the loading screen because I'm being taken to the castle blahblahblah. When the loading screen exits, the guard with my arrow through his head suddenly falls down from the sky right in front of me. o_O Miraculously, he was still alive after falling, and tries to re-arrest me for attempting to kill him. As soon as I tell him that I'll resist arrest, he just crumples on the ground dead. :D

The painted trolls-quest was really hard, though that might be because I tried it out the first time at around level 15 or so. The freaking trolls just kept killing me, and I couldn't kill them and used up the turpentine bottles on the first troll. Aaaaaa. But I finally managed to find this one rock they couldn't get up on and I could, so I just hid there and shot them all coward-style. ^_^ The Ultimate Heist was hard, I just kept screwing up all the time and I probably had to restart the quest 5-7 times before I realized I should save more often. For one, I missed the hole-thing and lost the special arrow you needed (Arrow of Extrication?), kept getting caught by the guards, died while falling down from the chimney after forgetting to put on the Boots of Springheel Jak etc. I failed so bad at that, but I was really fun. :D

The unicorn will attack you whenever you pull out any weapon (if I remember correctly), so it's really only a possible mount for people who depend completely on magic during fights and have no followers (it will attack your followers if they are wielding weapons as well). You can use a moderate-leveled Command Creature / Calm Creature-spell on it though, which should work to make the unicorn not attack you. The unicorn isn't really usable as a mount anyway, as soon as you leave it at the stables somewhere and go into the city / leave it outside of a ruin and exit the cell, it wanders back to the Harcane Grove.

Well, out of just plain normal creatures, I think the highest leveled ones are Gnarl Elder, Grummite Deathdealer and Mended Flesh Atronach (all level 23) for Shivering Isles, and Lich (starting level 26, but levels upward with the player) for Oblivion. Then there's all the special animals and creatures that are only part of one quest. I would have to say that Mehrunes Dagon is probably the hardest thing to kill in all of Oblivion, as he has 1000 health, 100 melee attack and is impossible to kill by a mortal (unless you find a workaround for this, I think there are a few). It's only possible to stagger him temporarily.

Azura is the greatest, but not my favorite in any way. Azura seems to always get her way over all the other daedra lords, so wouldn't you think that makes her the greatest? As for my own personal favorite, I have to say Nocturnal, Sanguine or Sheogorath. Nocturnal because of the Skeleton key-quest prize (that I happen to adore in Oblivion, saves me loads of time and I never really liked the lockpicking-minigame), Sheogorath cuz he's just awesome that way, and Sanguine just is cool. I can't really explain why the last two are great. They're just a lot more fun then the rest of all the daedra lords.

Well, considering I couldn't play Dungeons of Ivellon without having my boyfriend, little brother and best friend with me while playing, and even then I sometimes got so freaked out I had to make someone else play while I just watched and whimpered at everything that moved, I'd have to say Dungeons of Ivellon is the scariest mod out there. But then again, I haven't tried Gates to Aesgaard yet, but after reading the earlier posts I think I'll give it a shot, sounds scary. And even though I'm a total wuss, I like being scared. ^_^ In Vanilla Oblivion, the only things that ever freaked me out at all were the cellarplace of the haunted house of Anvil and the Dark Brotherhood-quest that had the mother's head and the really freaky diary in it. Oh yeah, and the Oblivion gate-closing expeditions had me totally disgusted and edgy, what with all the hanging corpses and everything. Just.... eww.

I guess I'm just a wimp, but I really hate running into a fight sword held high and yelling some kind of freakish battle cry. Just sooo not me. I'd just rather hide behind a corner and shoot arrows at people so they don't even notice me. ^_^ And a glass or amber bow with daedric arrows would be my weapon of choice from Vanilla Oblivion weapons, but now I mostly use mod-added weapons anyway.

"HELP! MURDER! I SAW IT THROUGH THREE WALLS WITH MY SUPER-EX-RAY-VISION AND NOW I MUST REPORT IT TO THE ALREADY PSYCHIC GUARDS SO THEY WILL ARREST THE KILLER!" .... aaaargh. What, does the whole freaking empire have a) x-ray vision and b) some serious psychic abilities? And the fact that your horse never seems to get tired even if you gallop through the whole of Cyrodiil, just stands still and doesn't move even a little bit (umm, wow, it SHAKES ITS HEAD :O) if dismounted, and knows automatically how to get back to its home-stable-place from anywhere in the world. This makes me wonder if the horses are magical and psychic as well as all the citizens and guards? And I guess they first clone and then brainwash all the guards so they all a) look the same, b) sound the same, c) fight the exact same way and d) say the exact same lines over and over and over and over and over and OVER again. I mean, I love the game to pieces, but I really would like some extra realism in TESV, please! ^_^ <3 How about more then one voice actor per race per gender, for a start?

Use custom classes with major skills like security, sneak, marksman, short blade and light armor etcetc. Khajiits, Argonians and Bosmers get bonuses for skills useful for thieves / assassins, but you can be whatever race you want and still make it work.

Bonewalkers, Ascended Sleepers, Ash Slaves, Ash Zombies, Ash Vampires, Lame Corpruses, Ash Ghouls, that whole bit. Dagoth Ur also scared the hell out of me. And the werewolves in Bloodmoon, they're so fast and the sound effects are reeeeally scary. And I have had nightmares about draugr chasing me through huge icy caves while playing the Bloodmoon MQ. Oh yeah, and the first time I saw a Mudcrab, I started squealing "OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT KILL IT KILL IT!!!" to my friend, who was playing at the time. :whistling: Nope, not scared of Mudcrabs anymore though! I actually really like them, they're all cute. ♥ (What can we decode from this post? Most of my game-playing consists of sitting on the edge of my seat, petrified with terror and killing everything that moves.)

Sadaneen...?

My game bugged while I was fooling around with my level 42 char, and as I jumped straight up into the air I found myself flying. I just let it continue, and after a lot of loading and flying through clouds I landed in Khuul. This is cool, considering I had taken off in Sadrith Mora and wasn't using any cheats or anything. And once when I was walking around right next to the outside of the Ghostgate, five dead cliff racers fell out of the sky on top of me, all at once. I hadn't even shot a single arrow, and I couldn't see anyone else who could possibly have killed the cliff racers. Hm.. what else. Once I found seven ash slave corpses piled under the silt strider bridgething in Balmora, and I couldn't get rid of them even though I tried disposing of the corpses. I waited next to them for a day, and they had all disappeared when my waiting ended. BEAT THAT (;

Been playing Morrowind for a really long time now, maaaany years. I like grew up playing Morrowind... Played it until Oblivion came out, then played Oblivion until I got bored of it and went back to Morrowind. I haven't fully appreciated how great Morrowind's MQ questline is until I've played Oblivion for a really long time.

Weynon Priory? Are you sure you don't mean Fort Farragut, which is Shadowmere's return-point-thing-whatever-you-want-to-call-it.
