Silver Glass Armour
I use this now, forget the screeny it looks ace in use. just re-textured glass but fully chrome and reflective

Saurons Armour Chest
I love this one. from the film LOTR. an evil looking set. the mace is handy too if you like blunt. i keep it on an armour dummy and save it for special evil occasions. (like beating the Gray Prince into a bloody pulp!)
it's in a cave which is a chore cos its right down in the depths.

ShadowMail Armour set
The screeny does'nt do this justice. its really very good. (used in OOO). very comprehensive set.

Sallets
A German style medieval helmet. i think it looks fantastic with steel armour. (ebony sallet included too)

P.S.
i can't stress enough that you need to go to TESS to browse the collections.

yep thats the one linked from UESPWIKI.

Be sure to tell us what you think of Shivering Isles.
I think i'll wait to see if its available as a download. the disc seems a bit pricey.
 
Dang it!

I lasted all of 5 min then ordered the disc from an e-retailer...im so weak willed :D

Shivering Isles shall be mine :p
i did have a full schedule for my character, looks like he's going to have to take a break from saving Cyrodil and play with the loonies. I can't wait :eek:
 
there was an old post about quarls killing fps with a 320, can't find it though.
have you read the quarls "readme"? i would imagine uninstalling was a case of removing the relevant texture and mesh files, so you should'nt have to uninstall.
 
enchant a set of leather armour or summat with chameleon. you'll get over 100% chameleon which is invisible. you can then just run the gates without the fight.
tis a gamebreaking exploit :D
 
it tells you in the readme posted above. you'll need to have a blade skill of at least 50 - journeyman as i think the rotating attack refers to the "disarm" move you get at 50, or its the reverse power attack you get at 75-expert.
 
SHIVERING ISLES

Just started it tonight, does not disapoint so far..... very impressed.
found out some info though.
firstly there seems to be some issues with black screens and crashing. yep i had this tonight. cured mine by de-activating the mod - Mart's Monster Mod. this has a tempory update to fix it but its slightly unclear about patch states.
the last officia; patch was 1.2.
shivering Isles only requires 1.1 HOWEVER it takes the game to 1.20201 so you need to take that on board when looking at mod fixes.
(if in doubt the load screen tels you your version No in the corner).
Heres a link to Bethesda's hardware and issues forums. there is a fair few problems so if you have troubles i suggest you take a look there.
(one of the posts is building a S.I mod compatibility/problems list which is a great idea).
Bethesda S.I problems forum
I also thought it would be a good idea to de-activate the "unofficial oblivion patch"

here's a link to the UESP Oblivion WIKI - it's already got a Shivering Isles page up. have'nt read it really as i want this expansion to be a suprise.
S.I WIKI

Shall post some screenies soon - ah yes. apparently patch 1.2 and the shivering isles exp 1.20201 apply better shaders or summat. the Isles are definetly very sweet to look at.

If you find have any S.I induced probs and find what the issue/bug/mod compatibility cure is post it here so we can build a knowledge base.

I'll reiterate my mods that cause crashes

MARTEN'S MONSTER MOD - black screen followed by crash (temp patch out)
UNOFFICIAL PATCH - suspect only

Beth have released a beta bug fix patch
http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/updates_patches.htm

this is to fix the 1.2 shivering isles issues. i'd hold out until they release the final version.

here's the link for a bug fix which slows the game down after 50 hrs of play or so with S.I installed
http://tessource.net/files/file.php?id=10278

(note the beth beta patch contains this fix)

for any mod queeries or bugs induced by S.I go to the official bethesda forums (linked at OP)

there are also updates for construction set and oblivion mod manager
(linked at OP)

i've decided to do a fresh clean uninstall/install and load the newer mod versions rather than incrementals.
im also NOT going to reload S.I until the next bug fix official patch is released.

you got fined because you had a bounty on your head. if you commit crimes your bounty increases ie 1000 for a murder. to check if you have a bounty click on your stat bar then click the far right icon which is game statistics. bounty level is there.
the only way to rid it is approach a guard and pay up or go to jail, or join the thieves guild and go see armand at IC waterfront or s'krivva in Bravil, you pay them half your bounty and they "fiddle it".

you're right about the mages guil IC hq being locked. you don't get access till you complete the seven MG recommendation quests and become an apprentice.
just pick the lock when its quiet and find Raminus Polus.

Alternately buy the "Vile Lair" plugin (available from TES official site linked @ main post). within the lair is a purgeblood pool which will instantly cure vampirism.
 
no screenies of Shivering Isles for a while......
my games hdd has thrown a wobbler and i can't even boot with it connected :eek:
im seeking assistance in the general hardware forum but it looks like i've lost my save games since last backup :eek: :eek:
that makes me sad, my characters got over 120 hrs and im sure my last backup was about 50 hrs ago :mad:
 
Ha!
i thought they were meant to be husks of nothing?
have you met a knight of order priest yet? you kill em then activate to try and pinch his staff and the bugger recovers! i was next to an obelisk and every time the priest recovered another knight of order teleported in. i goddamn wore my sword out killing them all! then i forgot to guzzle health potion....
died....
could'nt be arsed to rekoad and save.....
now my drive is dead...
bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaa
*rivers of tears* :D

ah well. my last back up was only 4 levels ago. i needed to reinstall anyway.
point here;

most mod patches post S.I require patch 1.2 then S.I then mod patch.
also there may be issues with LOD mods as the patch post dates them and hence may not read them. the tweakguide link (main post) gives details.
so i'll reinstall and patch up and catch up.

told the missus how distraught i was and she nearly had sympathy.
i think i might, just might be able to scam in some gaming sesh's on the pretense of getting back to where i was :D :D
 
aha, shame i won't get to try it for a while :(

considering im about to flog a load of carp fishing gear on the bay im hoping to get a whopping great top notch tft and the next ATi or Nvidia gfx card. (might need a new gaming hdd too....) so i might hold off Oblivion until i can play it in all its high rez high fps glory :D
luckily i have the sup com and c&c3 demo's to keep me occupied ;)
 
WOOOOOOOOOOOOT !!! :eek: :eek:

tried the hdd in a sata socket (not its native sataII) and guess what??

yep it now works :D

got my screenies and it all works.

i dunno why i was worried about saved games though.... they're saved in my games>my documents

meh, what a dumbass :p
 
thanks, that was the sole intention of this post. to make all the mods, links etc collective in one post so people could get a brief idea and then follow the links to customize oblivion into a stunning game.

regarding your deadly reflex mod try asking AndrewP. he's running that mod. im not at the moment as im holding back on the mods because im going to coincide a fresh uninstall/install + patches/mods etc in correct order with a big shiny monitor and top of the range gfx card.
