📋 About This Mod
Mod: Bottomless Cavern, Version 1. 2 Game: TES IV: Oblivion Author: David Brasher Date: 10/13/11 ************************************* 1. CONTENTS ********************************** 1. Contents 2. Information on the mod 3. Installation 4. Version History 5. Copy Status 6. Conflicts and Troubleshooting ********************************** 2. INFORMATION ON THE MOD ********************************** This is an eight-level cave mod. The upper levels are the hideout of a large gang of thieves, rogues, and outcasts. The lower levels are a challenging spelunking experience. There are also some strange things in the water near Culotte because of the activities of one of the bandit hedgewizards. The entrance to this cave is south-east of the Imperial City, north of the Carbolo River, south of Cropsford, and south-east of the Ayleid ruin of Culotte. Just watch for the icon on your compass as you get close. This dungeon is large and difficult, having both leveled and non-leveled creatures. You may wish to wait until your character is level 15 before you attempt this dungeon. You may need to go back to town for aid and resupply part way through. ********************************** 3. Installation ********************************** Uncompress the .esp file to your oblivion directory. The default, unless you have Vista or something is: C:\\Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Oblivion\\Data\\ Extract to there. There are no new meshes or textures to install. On your mod manager, put a check or \"x\" by the name of \"Bottomless Cavern.\" You are then ready to play. ********************************** 4.
