Level-Up Pacing Overhaul

In original Oblivion, you would level up after you increase your 'Major' skills 10 times, in remastered however, the leveling up is based on experience gained. Some quirks of that are:

• []Leveling up from level 1 to level 2 is faster than leveling from level 21 to level 22

  []Increasing a skill from 5 to 6 will contribute a lot less to leveling up than increasing the same skill from level 99 to level 100

  I don't think this system is bad per se, however, I think that leveling happens way too fast now. For me it seems like you completely miss the middlegame, as you level up so fast that you end up having the best gear in no time.

  Note: this mod doesn't modify the speed it takes your skills to increase, but rather the amount of skill increases required to achieve a level up.

  This mod offers a number of configurations which adjust how many skill point increases you need to level up.

  Configurations available:

  • []1. 0x original -- max level 43

    []1. 5x slower leveling -- max level 38

    []2. 0x slower leveling -- max level 33

    []2. 2x slower  leveling (recommended) -- max level 31

    []2. 5x slower leveling -- max level 29

    []3. 25x slower leveling -- max level 25

    []4. 0x slower leveling (for RPG purists, slow, but definitely playable) -- max level 23

    []1. 2x faster leveling (for the crazy ones who don't think that vanilla leveling is fast enough) -- max level 55

    Installation guide

    You simply have to place your chosen `.pak` file in the `Paks` directory, which should be found in

    Installation Directory --> OblivionRemastered --> Content --> Paks

    No need to update Plugins.txt or anything like that. Just paste the file in Paks directory and you are done.

    More in-depth explanation

    The settings which control how fast/slow your character levels up (not the skill increase) are stored in

    OblivionRemastered-Windows.pak --> OblivionRemastered --> Config --> DefaultAltar.ini

    The default settings are:

    SkillLevelUpGrantedXPExponent=1. 500000

    PlayerLevelUpBaseLevelXP=1940. 000000

    PlayerLevelUpXPFactor=60. 000000

    By looking at these values, I'm guessing that formulas for XP are:

    XP from increasing skill = (skill_level)^SkillLevelUpGrantedXPExp
