📋 About This Mod
Please note this is not OBSE this is just a program to help launching oblivion with or without OBSE. To get OBSE please go to http://obse.silverlock.org Update v1. 7 Fixed the program on x64 systems and fixed a few other crashes Update v1. 6 Updated so it no longer stalls and uses 100% cpu on some people. Update v1. 5 No longer needs to be in the Oblivion directory, Completely rewritten, Massive UI change, Plays the default launcher music unless turned off in options, Mods can now be turned on/off in the launcher, Your Oblivion install should now be auto detected, Bug fixes, speed ups and general awesome. Removed some redundant things. Well straight to the point this small program has the following features: 1. It can launch Oblivion with OBSE, 2. It can launch Oblivion without OBSE, 3. It can launch the Contruction Set with OBSE, 4. It can launch the Contruction Set without OBSE, 5. It can launch OBMM for those last minute mod changes, 6. It can backup your Oblivion.ini before you launch the game (so if a script alters it you have a backup). 7. It can open the incremental saver. 8. It can launch the Oblivion Character Manager. 9. It can turn on/off mods. And a bit more besides. And the best part? All this is from one shortcut on your desktop or start menu! It does NOT contain OBSE or OBMM you have to have installed those programs for this to be able to launch them ^^ This also requies the .net framework 2. 0 or higher.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with over 1.2k endorsements, so it's proven to work for many players.
- High download count (37k+) shows it's a go-to tool for OBSE users.
- Simple utility that does one job: launching the game with OBSE, no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2010 — may not be compatible with newer Oblivion versions or OBSE releases.
- No detailed description provided, so you're flying blind on features and setup.
- Utility mods like this can become obsolete if OBSE itself updates its launcher.
For Oblivion modders who use OBSE-dependent mods and want a dedicated launcher instead of manually running OBSE. Skip if you're fine with the default OBSE loader or play without script extender mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have OBSE installed separately, as this launcher just runs it.
- If you're on Steam, you might need to configure the launcher to point to your Oblivion.exe path.
- Check if your mods require a specific OBSE version; this launcher may not handle version checks.
