✅ Pros

  • Solid community backing with 152 endorsements and 3.7k downloads.

⚠️ Cons

  • No screenshots or detailed feature list in the description—you're flying blind on what's inside.
  • Last updated in 2017—might have issues with newer mods or the Steam version if you're not careful.
  • Only 152 endorsements—it's a niche pick, not a community favorite.
🎯 Is This For You?

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Oblivion Data folder and activate the .esp in the launcher.
  • If you're using a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install it through that to keep your load order clean.
  • Check the mod's page for any compatibility notes—it's old, so it might conflict with overhaul mods that change the Colovia region.
