I was playing Oblivion with a friend (awesome game) but my friend told me he wants apply some mods but have problems with a file called "blockhead". Searching around the web looks like a common problem but this is because we are a bit confused with instructions.
If you "follow the instructions" you surely think the obse plugin (as blockhead) goes inside
OBLIVION\obse\Data\OBSE\Plugins, but NOP, mods go in
OBLIVION\Data\OBSE\Plugins.
So move to this:
(dat horse)
to this:
Installing well the plugins, image show off the same as write above (
OBLIVION\Data\OBSE\Plugins):
Also it is important copy and paste the obse files (exe and dlls) on game root.
If everything is ok, when you run the game with the obse_loader.exe (always) a blockhead.ini will appears in game root. (Note: ignore the blockhead.dll file in game root, a mistake):
If you have the
latest obse (0021) you will see is not the same as the image, some dlls are missing but no problem, I guess those dlls are for modding (Still if you want those files you can found a link at bottom).
-But still I don't sure if obse plugins are working, how I can know if they're working?
A.Inside the link I added an .eps file called
OBSE TEST PLUGIN (or OBSE TESTER) which must be installed
OBLIVION\Data and run it with
OBMM (Oblivion Mod Manager or any other mods manager tool).
Well, my friend is happy as a freaking flea, installing mods as crazy.
A recommendation, if you want to use
HG EYECANDY BODY and
OBLIVION CHARACTER OVERHAUL V2 (OCOV2) install first
EYECANDY with OBMM as an omod file (mod itself has instructions how to do that) and then install the
OCOV2 mod
BUT with the
Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) [yup, require an account in Nexus), and let OCOV2 replace textures as default, their looks yummy with eyecandy body, this way you will save a lot of time, headaches and hurt the game.
Including links to mods for credits to owners and authors, also I don't own or modified anything of the link, its a recopilation of the obse tool made since
the official site.
Good Luck, questions, problems, no comprendes my english and need a better explanation, make your comment here or in forums.
