bkyeahboy Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hi everyone at Nexus, I'm new to the forums and pretty new to modding. So I recently downloaded Oblivion (version 1.0.288) and want to spice up my character a bit if you know what I mean. I love this site, so many great mods but to a newbie like me it all gets a bit confusing trying to trawl through pages of mods trying to figure out which mods I need to run other mods and which mods are compatible with each other... major headache imminent :wallbash: To begin with I downloaded the HG EyeCandy Body mod and installed the standard body mesh, no problem there. Still my character looks a bit bland, so what I'm looking for is a good skin texture, face and hair mod that can be used in conjunction with the HGEC mod and work with a female dark elf character. Links would be greatly appreciated. So what mods do you use? What mods would you recommend? Are there any patches I will need? Are there any tools I will need to install these mods (except the Oblivion Mod Manager, I got that already)? Oh and is the Unofficial Oblivon patch worth downloading and if so which version will I need? Thanks a lot for your time, I'm sure you guys have answered these questions hundreds of times.

bkyeahboy Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Thanks for the advice dsaboteur... Kudos to you :biggrin: The body of my characters looking good but I still suck at creating faces and there is a line across her neck where the textures don't match. Do you know of any good face mods or saved faces while I'm here?Anyway thanks again and here she is: 1 & 2 ps. I tried both the BAB mod and Ozmo's high rez skin textures and found I prefered Ozmo's mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezdimona Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Oh and download the 1.2 patch, not the 1.2.046 but the one just before, <snip>I've reported your post on cracked patches,those type of discussions are verboten here! @ OP, get the unofficial patch, latest version.Its definately worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Do get and install the latest official patch. v1.2.046. It's free and many mods require it. Available here:Evidently the guy that recommended against it has a pirated version of the game and the patch will not work on them. http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/updates_patches.htm Be sure to get the proper patch for your language version. There are 2 English versions, UK & US and they are different. If you do not have Shivering isles do not use the shivering isles patch. scroll down to find the Oblivion patches.
