📋 About This Mod
I really like oblivion crosshairs so i made one for Morrowind's plugin "Ownership indicator" which is part of MGE XE package. You can get in here: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/41102/ in optional file.
It isn't default stealing icon from Oblivion but default pick-up-icon in red color. Nothing more.
To install it just unpack archive in Morrowind folder. To uninstall remove ..\Data Files\Textures\target_ownership.dds
Make sure that you have backup copy of this file if you use another custom icon.
This mod replaces Skyrim's default ownership indicator with the red hand icon from TES4: Oblivion. It's a simple cosmetic swap for players who prefer the classic Oblivion aesthetic. With 300 endorsements and 7,222 downloads, it has a modest but dedicated following, though it hasn't been updated since 2014.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Nostalgic touch for Oblivion veterans (300 endorsements).
- Lightweight and doesn't mess with your load order.
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, no extra scripts.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—might not play nice with newer Skyrim versions or DLC.
- Only changes the icon; if you wanted more UI overhauls, this isn't it.
- No screenshots or detailed instructions in the description, so you're flying blind on install.
For Skyrim players who grew up on Oblivion and want that classic red hand back on their stolen loot. If you're a UI purist who likes subtle tweaks, this is a quick win. Skip it if you're on the latest Skyrim patch and worried about compatibility—it's old and unmaintained.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple texture/mesh swap, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—no need for LOOT.
- If you're using Skyrim Special Edition, this mod is from 2014 and likely won't work without conversion—check the comments for user fixes.
- Test it on a single container first to make sure the icon shows up before you commit.
