📋 About This Mod
Announcement:
Ver 3. 5 is available - SI Update. Ruins Exterior Gates, Palace Prison Gates (cages) added. Also, Arcane University Gates and Cave Torture Cages added.
Dear stealth archers and adventurers:
Normally, because of an invisible collision mesh on various gates in game, you cannot attack and deal damages to enemies no matter how hard you try.
This mod fixes that.
Now you can attack with whatever resources available through the holes. How glorious! XD Oh, they can also attack you, so beware!
Currently penetrable are Ayleid, Fort, Prison, Kvatch, Shrine, Sewer, Dungeon, Fence Gates, Bravil Bridges, Arena, Fighters Gates, Bridge End and Cave doors, Ruins Exterior Gates, Palace Prison Gates, Arcane Univ. Gates, and Cave Torture Cages.
Ver 3. 5 Showcase - Shivering Isle update and more!

Installation
==============
Unzip and put 3 files inside...
SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Paks\~mods\
XboxGames\The Elder Scrolls IV- Oblivion Remastered\Content\OblivionRemastered\Content\Paks\~mods\
if you don't have ~mods folder, create one.
if you accidentally put the file in Paks folder, it works just fine.
even if you create a folder inside ~mods folder and put it in there, that's fine, too.
i.e. if you create a folder named electionis and put all my mods in there, no problem. It just works.
this is particularly useful if your mod list gets longer and takes time to recognize all different names and versions, preventing a possible confusion.
