weto1210 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 So I wanted to start making some mods and I decided to pick oblivion as my start. I don't really know what programs and tools specifically that I need to download/use to make mods, if anyone would like to help me figure out what I need could you put the name of the tool and possibly a link.

mhahn123 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Just for basic starter tools you will want the following: 7zip - for packaging, unpacking compressed filesBSA Commander - for extracting mesh and texture files from BSA, OBMM has a built in function alsoNifskope - for working with mesh filesGIMP - for working with texturesBlender - if you want to do more complicated work with meshesTES4Edit - for cleaning mods before you publish themOBMM and/or Wrye Bash for load ordering and otherwise managing mod files. Both have pros and cons. Sorry no links just now...my laptop is getting ready to die. If nobody expands on this i'll add links later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
