Mhmm. Saw someone on Lovers who had literally maxed out their Oblivion plug in limit, was running TES Reloaded, and everything else. Looked gorgeous. Never did find out what they were using unfortunately.... Which is part of the problem with trying to earn to mod Oblivion and whatnot, most have moved onto other things, such as Skyrim (Which I just can't seem to get into), and things from mod sites to modding tutorials have vanished. XD
Oh, just a forum oriented towards more... "Adult" based mods. XD And no, unfortunately not, their account's been dead for a long while now, five years or so. Besides, I don't think my laptop would run TES reloaded. XD
Haha, I think that sounds interesting. Though I'm not so sure what I should think about "adult". If it is what I'm thinking that it is, then it's probably not for me :-)
But I'm happy it exists for people who like such things. ^_^
:D No need to explain, doesn't matter to me if you do or don't. I'm not a hater ;-)
"it harm none do what you will" is one of my motto's. Not that I'm Wiccan, but I like the motto.
Totally of topic xD but interesting. I researched it quite a bit in my "Harry Potter" era.
I loved the idea of it being close to nature and such, but I never was into the really believing you can do magic part. But I do believe it can be healing in a way. The rituals and meditation.
Also, I don't know how many Bethesda titles you've played (If you're familiar with them and modding you can disregard the rest of this, as it was written in case you haven't done too much mod wise), but they can be a touch buggy at times, so CTD's happen occasionally, my mod order/list is by no means 100% proven, I leave that to the big name modders. I myself had some issues modding as a lot of resources weren't available due to the age of the game (read: old sites being removed, dead links, et cetera). For example:
59 Better Cities - IC Imperial Isle.esp [Version 6.0.2]
Conflicts with some of the Unique Landscapes stuff, however the patch removes the Aquaduct, so I put up with the (significantly) higher CTD chance.
With the more known mods, not only are their patches, but they tend to list where things have issues, and most have either OBMM or BAIN wizards (Oblivion Mod Manager and Wrye Bash respectively) on install allowing you to piecemeal them (both Unique Landscapes and Better Cities have Bain installers, off the top of my head) as well as apply any patches that come with the games. I myself decided to use a mostly manual installation (instead of things like MO, or any of the other countless organizers) wherever possible, and the most valuable thing I learned? Backup the game files. XD
But yeah, if you need any help I can try to help/point you to some resources, assuming you need it. If not, and you're familiar with modding, I apologize, figured better I tell you something you know than you have as much fun as I did. :P
P.S.: If you somehow come across a valid FCOM download let me know, last I saw it could only be gained from TESAlliance, which uses an outdated reCaptcha (thus no new accounts). Would have eased some things I was trying to do a lot. XD
Thank you for the infos and tips! I first plan to play and finish the game without mods then with mods. I had some experiencing with modding DOOM 3 BFG and Rage titles (id Tech based games). Since this game has different engine, i'll definitely need help and i know who to contact =) I hope i learn quick. If i want to play the game on one day with mods i may contact you.
Edit:
and the most valuable thing I learned? Backup the game files. XD
You're so right about that, i know that feeling :)
It's an awesome game ^_^
I was able to play it a bit on a friends playstation (long in the past)
What mods do you use?

Had more at one point, but my precarious tower of modding kept collapsing (read: CTD's).
E: SG Forum playing with the formatting (bolded some things).

OHMEOWGAWD!
That's a long list... Don't know what to say haha :D
You really left me speechless!
I hope that the winner enjoys the game, with or without mods :P

I don't know what "Lovers" is but that seems like a feat! Maxing your plugin limit...
There is no way to contact that person and ask what they used?

Yeah. As you can see, I don't actually use it, just made an account practically everywhere hunting for modding knowledge. XD

Mhmm, I always perceived the magic as more a state of mind thing... And I was more eclectic anyhow, but that's another story. XD

Yes, I felt the same :D
But you found some people and books that had different ideas.

WOW i won! Thank you so much! Stay safe. I took your mod list :P
