Candex Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Hola! Welcome!Most mods don't need you to start a new game. Some will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 A suggestion: Make a backup of your data folder before starting on mods. - create a new folder somewhere outside of the game folder and copy the entire data folder into it. And if you . like so many of us have either Vista or Win7 and made the mistake of installing the game into the default location :rolleyes: - move it now while it's still unmodded to make things work much better. The default location causes problems with mods due to windows UAC trying to control that location. Just using the windows move or drag and drop will NOT work. The built om game uninstall doesn't work properly either. :facepalm: Here is a link to my complete uninstall/reinstall procedure located in the WIKI section of the Nexushttp://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Oblivion_reinstall_procedure It allows you to preserve any saves and mods, or remove them completely - your choice.
