📋 About This Mod
Time Manager Readme v1. 21 by Tekuromoto Don\'t miss my other mods! SEE THE README IN THE DOWNLOAD FOR FULL INSTRUCTIONS, CREDITS, ETC. ------------ Introduction ------------ Time Manager is a multi-function suite of time-related functions, including Variable Timescale, Immersive Waiting, Timed Training and Timed Menus, Clock Display featuring an immersive timekeeping option, and a Realtime Alarm Clock. I was inspired to make Time Manager after trying a bunch of different mods with time-related features; either they didn\'t do all that I wanted, or they were bundled with a bunch of features I didn\'t need, or I simply felt I could improve upon their implementation. Thus Time Manager was born. ------------ Requirements ------------ Oblivion Script Extender version 17. Get the latest version here. Pluggy version 126. Get the latest version here. You MUST have OBSE v17 and Pluggy v126 to use all of the features of this mod. If you for some inexplicable reason do not want to install Pluggy v126, you still be able to use most of the features of the mod, but the Realtime Alarm will not work and you will not be given the Alarm config item. If Time Manages doesn\'t work as expected, please ensure that you have the latest versions of OBSE and Pluggy installed before reporting any bugs. Time Manager was developed with Oblivion 1. 2. 0416, OBSE v17a, Pluggy v126, and over 200 mods of all sorts installed (Fran\'s, MMM, COBL, body replacers, Race Balancing Project, LAME, All Natural, Better Cities, Unique Landscapes, quests, you name it). I haven\'t tested it with Shivering Isles or any DLCs (because I don\'t have them), but it _should_ work just fine with any setup. ------------- Customization ------------- Time Manager features six separate optional modules, each of which is fully customizable via the included file \"DS Time Manager.ini\". This file is located in \\Oblivion\\data\\, but if you prefer to tidy your Data directory the mod will also look in \\Oblivion\\data\\ini\\ for the config file. By default, the mod is usable out-of-the-box with the values in the ini file, but you can open the file with Notepad or something similar and adjust the values to your liking. Any of the modules can be turned on or off (via the ini file) at any time without affecting the other functions of the mod. Variable Timescale ------------------ This function allows you to set the time in the game to pass at different rates depending upon where you are and what your are doing in the game. The default timescale for Oblivion is 30; this means that for every minute that passes in real life, 30 pass in the game. If you play for an hour, almost a day-and-a-half go by in the game. While this may feel realistic when traveling from city to city, it\'s not very realistic to finish a battle with a couple of opponents and look up to find that the sun has travelled half way across the sky since you started fighting.
