Recommended, Lore Friendly Mods?

[Proddit]

I'd like to get back into playing the game, but I'd prefer to have some mods installed. I know there's the Nexus, but I can't really decide which ones I should get, apart from the Unofficial Patches.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend any lore friendly mods? Also ones that make the characters not so 'ugly'.

I would also try some other enhancing mods, like better cities mod. That mod is by far lore friendly, but also amazing!

And I would also strongly suggest against Better cities, but what do I know.

Being built on essentially the same engine as Skyrim, Oblivion's environment can be modded to be on that level. The only trouble is the way Oblivion handles memory allocaiton makes it pretty slow the more textures you make it render. I use the mod from the OP and it is pretty amazing.

And Oblivion is built on the same engine as Morrowind and then we can do a: Morrowind=Skyrim? ;) The engine shouldnt been seen as the same. Easier that way

The memory issue can be solved rather easy with an 4gb patch and also with a mod called OSR that fixes the iHeap. But that mod requires some (easy) reading.

archeology guild is in my own opinion, very lore friendly and has some of the top of the line voice acting, maybe better than Oblivion's own.

Agree. The mod is called "lost spires"
