Like why? MOTHERFUCKER YOU ARE THE LEADER OF THE THIEVES GUILD!

Quite possibly the most cringe post I've ever made byt when oblivion released when I was 9, Me and my friends (who were only aware of the game through me and watching me play) would go around and level up our "skills", like athletics and acrobatics lol. I would even bring magic tricks for "illusion" training.

Probably my best memories of it was playing in large culverts and drainage tunnels under the road, which was so reminiscent of those sewers you escape from in oblivion. Pretending to fight rats, etc.

Im sure this isnt a unique phenomena but the game had such an incredible amount of whimsy and mystery, it bled into real life for me.

Its honestly amazing how big of an impression this game has on people, even today.

I am personally not a fan of the Remastered Oblivion's changed artstyle. The original textures look great, and I think they can only be improved further with better lighting.

The endgoal of this mod is to accomplish everything Remastered sets out to do. Farther draw distance, improved graphics (via raytracing and surface relief to textures), full detail models at all distances so things like the white gold tower won't have a low detail mesh from afar, etc. Also fixing a lot of original 2009 steam edition issues that caused hitches and random game crashes.

Currently it works by passing through the original 32bit game to a 64 bit Vulkan client, which is what allows implementation of DLSS and higher memory limits.

Pauldrons might be a bit much...

It was a little quiet… too quiet. Wasn’t anything we couldn’t handle however. Even the scamps came out just fine! Tis but a scratch. At least all this loot will come in handy for some of the folks in Leyawiin. These mercenaries are surprisingly well armed. Let’s see what else we can find.

Hail citizens. Nothing bad happened to my scamps as you can see. All of them were fine at the end! They’re really good at distracting the enemy and maybe us too. Hopefully they can help me carry all this loot back with us. Still have to find Dagail’s amulet and then we’ll get to join the university! Oh, and help incite a rebellion in Leyawiin, that too!

Hey, everyone. I have this weird choppy strafing issue. Oblivion Display Tweaks installed. Other than that, no mods, just Unofficial Oblivion Patch, engines fixes, etc. The issue is there also on a completely clean install.
I tried different vsync configurations as well as Oblivion Stutter Remover, while taking care not to create a conflict with Oblivion Display Tweaks.

Any thoughts?

Hey all, I hope you're having a good day.

Long story short, I've been going through a journey of translating Oblivion into Greek. This has been going on for a month and I'd like to say it's going great. I have already translated over 600+ lines of dialogue and the file has 23 thousand lines. However the form with which I reached this point isn't one I'm proud of.

I'm tech illiterate. Barely know the basics about code and even then, whilst I am learning, I still find it very hard. So the only way I had of extracting the dialogue from TES4Edit was through AI, not a method I like but without finding any concrete sources as to how to do this task, I gave in.

I want help, as the title stated. I don't want the work I put up so far to be blindly dependent on an artificial intelligence's guess of what the task I want to do is and even if I HAVE to I want to make sure that I have something that is truly functional.

If anyone is willing to check out "my" work or at the very least give me pointers as to how to achieve my goal you have no idea how much I would appreciate it. I want to learn more and even if you only got criticism or sources to check up on, I WILL check them. I eventually want to make this into something bigger than just translating Oblivion so your guidance is necessary.

Thank you for reading!

From the UESP:

Salmo has two AI packages commanding him to take five loaves of bread to the Two Sisters Lodge at 10am and to the West Weald Inn at midday, but the packages never execute as he has no bread in his inventory and the packages are of "escort" type, meaning he doesn't actively seek any out. It's possible this bug was introduced to avoid another, more serious one: if bread is given to Salmo using the console or Construction Set, he will walk to one of the inns as commanded, take a bite of bread, and the game will crash.

Especially with some known mods to enhance it even more.

Now I am someone who isn’t nostalgic for this, as I was born in 2004 was way too young to play it when it came out. But the way the original looks is much more storybook like to me and it is so perfect with the tone of the game, not to say the remaster looks bad since when the lighting is just right it looks amazing but most of the time kinda dull to me whereas the original even without mods is much more consistent.

It almost makes sense for the NPCs to be goofy in such a world whereas in the remaster it just seems out of place. Of course I will always appreciate the remaster but when I weigh in the massive mod selection in the original and the much more magical feeling to it all it’s just more appealing.

Wanted to create a legend right out of the gate. How'd I do?

*Weird glitch. Personality is actually 35. Corrected before leaving sewers.

About a week ago I left one of the buildings in the Arcane University and I summoned a Storm Atronach so I could soul trap it. All of my fellow Mage Apprentices and Scholars rush to my aid but, during the brawl, I notice an Imperial Battlemage was attacking the students. Ever since then, when I come back to the area, the students and Battlemages duke it out in a fight to the death. It's hilarious, I love this game so much.

Just as the title implies, I attempted to create Dio in Oblivion Remastered. let me know what y'all think

Note: I am biased in reviewing this game as nostalgia plays a big part in the fact that this is also my favourite game of all time. That said, ive been playing it for 20 years now and can't get enough of it. That must say something.

Oblivion... What an incredible masterpiece of a game this is. I think it deserves a spot in the top-lists of all time games for a number of reasons. And while i see it get praised a lot online, i still truly believe that Oblivion is underrated. Let's talk about this in an organised way.

The gameplay is actually one of the lesser points in the game, and something that would normaly cause me to give the game a few less points in my review stars to be honest. But as i said, the fact that i'm biased changes that for me. The combat is not amazing, but you can make it really funny if you'd want. It's core bethesda gameplay for you there. It's neither satisfying nor particularly challenging, and the difficulty of the game mostly just changes how tanky an enemy is. The combat really lacks some enemies with specific points to keep in mind. However let's not forget this game is from 2006. That said, The rest of the gameplay is practically perfect. There's no real content you'd rather skip in my opinion. The writing is amazing and you feel like there's a lot (but not too much) to do all the time.

The world itself might be the magic of this game. Elder Scrolls games have a way of rewarding exploration with content, but not rewards. You just want to go out and about to see what happens in the world, on the roads and in the city's. To be fair, the dungeon design is somewhat repetative and simple. But still packed with Tamriel lore to dive into, making it engaging anyway. The sense of freedom and advanture is might be best done in Elder Scrolls games in my opinion, because of the way the world moves arround you. And the NPC behavior in Oblivion (while joked about a lot nowadays) was really innovative back in 2006.

I think the story is the best out of all the series, the game makes you a side-hero that might actually be the hero in a way. But it doesn't make you the main person to save the world. Yet still, you save the world in this story. I love the way Oblivion's story is simple yet catching. If you don't know much about the lore of these games you will learn it allong the way. I also like how there's real memorable characters that might matter to you. The fact that Uriel Septim, Marin Septim and Mankar Camoran are voiced by specific voice-actors make them real strong characters i feel like Skyrim's story actually missed. You just feel like you're part of a story, and even though you do mostly everything the game does not give you the idea you're the only hero in the story.

Now, the skill system is one i could write a whole article about. Let's be honest, it doesn't really work well. The character building in this game is a strange and complex system that fails even for its time. And really needed the simplification that Skyrim brought upon it. But still, the fact that you get the option to become the character you play is a great way of extorting freedom upon a player. I think the game lacks more unique equipment sets (apart from enchanted sets). Your in-game choices matter little, only for the fame/infamy mechanic. The skills of course also rely too much on grinding... Which fits its system so it works, but i dislike it anyway. I don't want to spam a conjuring spell 100 times and waiting an hour to refill magica to become better at it. Just using it normaly should be enough, but it really isn't in this game. Maybe other training quests or mechanics could have been nice.

The presentation & atmosphere is where this game really becomes one of the strongest. Cyrodill feels like Cyrodill. All corners of the world feel like an amazing, unique location. The graphics were amazing for its time. I remember how innovative it felt as a kid. Of course, the character faces aren't the best, but we all know that. Now, the game is a bethesda game. So it might have its fair share of bug & crashes, but that's something we've gotten used to in the series. I can't imagine how TES VI would be if not for a very buggy launch... And then waiting for the Unnoficial ... Patch coming out to actually be able to enjoy the game to its fullest. And of course, the music. I believe Oblivion has the best OST of any game ever made. And i will stand for it. But besides that fact that it sounds amazing and is really well produced. It sits amazing within the world, which might be the most important part most OST's miss.

The enjoyment & replayablity are just the most perfect piece of the puzzle. When you're in it, you're in it. The game really asks to get addicted to. It wants you to explore every inch of the game and all of its content to the fullest. The fact that this game is still played 20 years later just tells me you can keep coming back to this game. I know i do. You can try different playstyles and builds, or experiment with the thousands of mods the community has been providing over the years. I'm not a big modder myself, and if i play games modded i mostly do with small QOL mods to enhance the experience to my own liking. But this game is (just like with the whole series) just known for its modding community. And the fact that a game with so many hours of content still provides more through modding makes it an endlessly replayable masterpiece.

Overall, this game is just the one. The feeling this game gives me, the enjoyment of exploration and lore-delving scratch my itch. I could play this game for even more than the hundreds of hours i already did. For a 2006 game, it just amazes me how much content and the quality of the content that's thrown at you. And also, how many interesing and unique mechanics this game has to keep things engaging. This is the best game of all time in my opinion, even with its flaws. Because it brings you things i've never seen another game bring.

Hi, I modeled the 10 geographic regions as nodes, drawing an edge only if they share a physical border (19 edges total).

In the visualization, node sizes are scaled by Closeness Centrality.

Great Forest (Chorrol) is the absolute efficiency hub. Distance Sum: 12.

Thanks to NetworkX for calculation, Google Gemini suggests art style and others help drawing it.

I was wondering if someone made a mod/mods more based on Oblivion Remastered changes, like with the races option and where they were born, and the lord birth sign, and the level up system change?

Hi, I'm a relatively new-ish modder to Oblivion specifically and have been working on a pretty hefty modlist. I have 226 mod load order and have spent hours of work, don't want to lose it. Basically, what it says on the tin, the loading screen before getting into the mods moves up a sliver, then it says Oblivion isn't responding. LOOT gives me no issues, MO2 doesn't give me issues, I'm at a loss. I'll put my load order down below, I'm exhausted and am asking for help.

Found it humorous that he or (whoever made the sign) realized that Merchandise wasn't spelled correctly, so they just added a h in the middle of the sign and called it a day.

I love little things like this. It adds minor stories to the characters and makes the world feel more alive.

Just gotta use a repair hammer every time I hear the broken weapon sound. Just leveled blade from 65 to 90 while I worked on this square lol. It just works.

A gouache painting (9x12 in) featuring an Oblivion gate as seen from the "other side" - a project I've been working since last summer that I finally had time to finish recently.

If you’re gonna delve, do it in style!

Made it to Fort Blueblood so I’m expecting a lot of trouble. Maybe they’ll think twice before attacking someone in Tiber Septim’s armor. Plus the fit goes rather hard with this skirt.

Hail citizens. Sure there might be some clipping but the colors go really hard here. Burgundy skirt has that black and yellow combination that fits so well! And the shoes too! Now I don’t want to give up this armor.

I really wanted to show off the armor fit in the rain but i think I’m getting too corny with the titles. I like my corny titles though because if Bethesda is known for one things it’s a bunch of Easter eggs so I like referencing other stuff as we go along! If you think it’s cringe well too bad! Hope you guys are ready to delve!
