Oh wow, an update?? Been keeping a wandering eye on your work for some years now! Compiled the entire Oblivion Beautification Project several years ago just to see if my potato of a PC would even attempt to run it and got like 10FPS lol. Mind you, this was on an AM2+ socket motherboard, with an Athlon 64 X2 5200+ 2.7ghz, Radeon R7 250 2GB GDDR3 (OEM), and 2x2GB DDR2-800 lol. May have even been my Geforce 9400GT 1GB at that time.

Betting I could run it decently now, since I've upgraded to an i7-4790, GTX 1080 FTW, and 4x8GB DDR3-1600. Actually putting everything together though... takes... SO much time. I went through the old mod list and actually found some of the mods that had been delisted from Nexus and elsewhere using Archive's Wayback Machine. Still have them all compressed in a zip file for archival purposes.

Anyways. Thanks for all your work on this! And other mods over the years. I'm sure it takes a lot of time typing up detailed guides for the massive Bethesda overhauls.

Hi there. When i go to the author's website link, Malwarebytes blocks access due to riskware and possible malicious activity. Has anoyone seen this lately?

Thanks again, that did the trick! What I meant was editing HUD settings with the in-game DarniFied menu such as scale & icon positions, settings would not remain persistent and reset to default every time I restarted the game or loaded a save
Poking around per your tip I found '\Data\menus\prefabs\darn\hudmainmenu_config.xml' and changed the values there and it seems to have worked proper.

NP :) ..
You can edit the xml files of DarniFied UI. Or are you referring to some other settings? I'm not sure I understand correctly.

Awesome! thanks! I've been enjoying this mod build a lot. I do have one question I cant seem to find a proper answer to on google: Is there good a way to save/keep my settings in darnified UI?

@Beavis:
You are right!. I never noticed the eye disappeared. :steamfacepalm:
I made a new mod "Dynamic Crosshair for DarNified UI". That fixes the problem. It also moves the eye back in the center of the screen. - I never liked it in the bottom corner where DarniFied UI put it.

I made a few other small changes as well:

Including a small change the the ENB.. Since I was at it.

has someone tried both this and oblivion rebirth? i'm curious as to which ones is better. i myself am currently running a modified version of vegasstephenson's oblivion rebirth+hero of kvatch collections including open cities reborn epic necromancy and nekhanimals awesome vampire mod

Thanks for the reply. I've been poking around and replaced Amnes beautiful characters + better heads with oblivion character overhaul ver.2 + Eyecandy compatible textures & compatible body replacers. Seems to work fine and a tad bit better than stock potato

Also, might not be a bad idea to add a note to users in the guide that dynamic crosshair removes the sneak eye entirely. Ended up deactivating that one because I couldn't figure out why the eye wasn't showing up after enabling it in Darnified UI

Well it's been a while since I made the guide.. At the time, there was no mods that only replaced female hair. Unless you can find a new mod that does that, I guess you a stuck with the choice of original potato hair for everyone, or girly hair that at least fit's half the people.
