Title: OB 16: Cheydinhal
Post by krigl on Sep 11^th, 2007 at 4:47pm

2 sets of some of my latest shots from Oblivion... Cheydinhal, west of the Imperial City, is a charming place in it's Vanilla non-modded incarnation - perhaps that's why no-one has modded it yet.

Just arrived. Finally picked up some better heavy armour - doesn't look too nice, but it goes.

Oh my. Look who got hit with the ugly stick....

Covered bridges, rivers, rushes, mountains... very picturesque.

Not again! That walking handbag is wearing MY dress!!!

Just a Cheydinhal scene...

A bit of local colour... :D he's got a bit of a chip on his shoulder, this gentlemen after being wronged by the head of the town guard.

There's a fun quest in Cheydinhal where you rescue someone trapped in his own painting - some shots in the next set.

Hope you liked

Vanilla means the game out of the box. Like vanilla FS2004. Playing unmodded vanilla Oblivion is like playing FS without addons...

...shudder.

My face and body is modded in all my shots, the female armour probably too, all the textures of ground, buildings and sky - all modded. My magic, HUD, the behaviour of the animals and monsters I meet... all modded too. All 'freeware'.

Actually it's still a great game even without mods - but like I said, it's slow. Advancement is slow, travel is slow, many quests are a bit weak.... it's like a simulator. The fun for me is in exploration, in adding mods, in creating the game how you want it to be using other people's hard work... and taking screenshots. Just like FS - for me :)

OMG did I just say 'playing' FS.... :o :-[ :-[

FS is NOT a game. FS is NOT a game. FS is NOT a game........ ;D

Cheers

Although if you "feel" the need to bend the rules, there are cheat codes you can punch in to get tons of gold,weapons,armor,spells,etc. I never messed with the level of my character but loved the money code. That's how I got a house in every town and furninshed them ;D. It helps to have a home in every town so you can always have a place for your loot and a comfortable place to rest or save for the next time you go off on an adventure ;)

I use the money code a lot too. The game practically makes you do it ::)
But like you I never alter anything else - though I plan to change sex and race in the future.... using the Wrye Bash utitlity I can import my face back from an old save when I feel like playing as this girl again. I just love her face... it took a while to craft it in the editor...
