📋 About This Mod

Does your character just burn up whenever he's under the sun? This mod aims to make the game more enjoyable for vampire characters by making the nights longer and the days shorter so you can do more hunting and less sleeping in coffins. Specifically, it makes the hours between sunset and sunrise 50% longer and daytime 50% shorter. Moreover this mod will work with any mod that adjust the game's timescale so long as it is installed after that mod.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Directly addresses the vampire daytime penalty by giving you more night hours to play
  • Lightweight and focused—does one thing and does it well
  • Decent community traction for a 2008 mod (72 endorsements, 3,340 downloads)

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2008—likely incompatible with modern Oblivion versions or mod setups
  • Only affects time distribution—no other vampire gameplay improvements
🎯 Is This For You?
For Oblivion players who love vampire characters but hate the constant sun damage and forced indoor waits. If you want a simple tweak to make night play more viable without overhauling vampire mechanics, this is for you. Skip if you're on a modern setup or want more comprehensive vampire overhauls.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod is from 2008, check if your Oblivion version is patched to the latest—older mods may need compatibility patches.
  • If you use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install manually and place the .esp in your Data folder, then activate it in the launcher.
  • Test the time change early in a new save to ensure it doesn't conflict with other time-related mods you might have.
