📋 About This Mod

Tired of running out of Lockpicks in the middle of a dungeon? Think it\'s lame that you, as the indepedent and resourceful thief, must rely on thieve\'s guild fences or other merchants for a few measley lockpicks? Not anymore! With this lockpick mold, you will be able to mold your own lockpicks--out of your hard-stolen septims. Not only that, the mold can be used as a weapon...but it is extremely powerful and is not intended to be used as such. (It\'s your fault if you abuse it\'s terrible power) Location - The Mold and Instructions are found lying on the left side of the top of the steps at the IMPERIAL MARKET DISTRICT. (Fast travel there to be sure you are at right marker.) This is my first mod ever, a fair amount of work went into it because I had to learn how to script and figure out the editor. Feel free to send feedback, I would enjoy all kinds of comments, suggestions for improvements I will most likely do, if not consider. Hope you have fun with it...by the way, I also included a small story in the instructions for all you roleplayers out there.

  • Since the mod is from 2008, check if you're using Oblivion's latest patch and consider using a mod manager like OBMM to avoid conflicts.
  • If you're using other stealth mods, test lockpick crafting early to ensure it works with your load order.
  • Look for a readme file in the download—if none, manually place the files in your Data folder as is typical for Oblivion mods.
