PyreBorn Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I was wondering if anyone had a link to the Elsweyr mod for Oblivion. I've checked Nexus, and a few other sites but the file is either hidden or gone completely. Any link would be appreciated Peace, Pyre
DogOnPorch Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Hmmm....this mod seems to be missing in action.
gregathit Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Iliana, was hacked off at the nexus and pulled the files. Left a megaupload link (which of course is now lost) and was fine with it being there, just wanted the mod out of the spot light. I have the Nov 2010 version if you want it. Take me a day or so to throw it up on media fire if anyone is interested.
Kodiak Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Yea that would be great actually. Just one of those mods I wanted to download and never got around to it.

You might wish to grab Valenwood and perhaps Vampire Hunting OVB while you're at it before a similar tragedy occurs. That pretty much finishes that end of the TESIV map. These are part of the mix, as well. http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=35920 http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=27302 http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=34931 http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=39782
Poontank Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Actually, I'm uploading my November version to my 4shared account at the moment. Will take five more hours with my crappy connection though (it's already busy for a few hours). I've also included some other files like patches and the David Brasher mod DogOnPorch linked to. Oh, I've just seen 'Order of the Virtuous Blood' is also by David Brasher! The mod I've included is 'Tales from Elsweyr Anequina'.
PyreBorn Posted March 27, 2012 Author Posted March 27, 2012 *Edit* Thanks for going through the trouble to upload it, can't wait to try it out! *Edit* Thanks for the other links, missed a few of them while looking around Nexus earlier. Peace, Pyre
gregathit Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Ok, MediaFire upload complete for November version (remember November version is just the combining of the Jan 2010 and the July 2010 update). Use 7.zip to extract! Links (4 parts): http://www.mediafire.com/?prgtjebd988fege http://www.mediafire.com/?ohh8nnxz7jx5bmx http://www.mediafire.com/?5paf45fnoqk353m http://www.mediafire.com/?r2v6g9tab04pdi6 Sorry for splitting it up but mediafire only allows 200MEG files sizes but if you are close to the limit it just seems to bog down and take forever to upload. So I dodge that with 100MEG files. I plan on leaving this here for quite a while but do grab it soon just in case
Poontank Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Ninja'd by Greg... No wonder with my slow-ass connection. I keep my upload running for Day X when they'll take Mediafire down . Many hours later... This is the alternate download with some goodies added: http://www.4shared.com/get/uQn1piDW/Elsweyr_Deserts_of_Anequina.html Keep in mind the 'Unofficial Elsweyr Patch' must be loaded immediately after the Elsweyr esp itself.
gregathit Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Ninja'd by Greg... No wonder with my slow-ass connection. I keep my upload running for Day X when they'll take Mediafire down . That is a good idea! Exactly the reason I try to archive everything I can get my hands on anymore. Good stuff is disappearing all over the place it seems like.
Poontank Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 That's true. I got myself a 1.5 TB external HD just for that purpose, exclusively filling it up with Oblivion stuff. Also great for multiple Data folder backups and all my screenshot material. I imagine guys like Uriel have many, many Terabytes of precious mods lying around...
DogOnPorch Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Oh' date=' I've just seen [b']'Order of the Virtuous Blood'[/b] is also by David Brasher! The mod I've included is 'Tales from Elsweyr Anequina'. VH-OVB rocks. Greatly extends the vanilla quest. Has a Buffy the Vampire Slayer element to it which was very well done. Includes 'Mr Pointy'.
Poontank Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 This sounds like a great mod for these two chicks here, characters I haven't really used yet: I think I'll get 'VH-OVB' to finally have something to do for them, to have targets for them to hunt down - lots of adventures for this badass vampire huntress in the vein of 'Dante Son of Sparda' and her clumsy near-sighted assistant. Also a romantic lesbian couple by the way. Good thing the mod even has two Morrowind locations. And it's by Mr. Brasher - top quality guaranteed! I simply love his work.
Kodiak Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Thank you very much for the suggestions Dog and the upload efforts to Greg and PT. I'll make sure I snag it all ove rthe next couple of days. More and more it starting to feel as if I may be reinstalling my Oblivion again soon.
Poontank Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 That's a brilliant idea! I have a few mods for you to go with the reinstallation once you're ready, one of them a more recent version of that old 'BFG' add-on. Just think of all the juicy Lovers fun to be had... Meanwhile, my upload advances at the speed of a racing snail! 320 MB complete.
DogOnPorch Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Thank you very much for the suggestions Dog and the upload efforts to Greg and PT. I'll make sure I snag it all ove rthe next couple of days. More and more it starting to feel as if I may be reinstalling my Oblivion again soon. You're most welcome. PT: Also a romantic lesbian couple by the way. Buffy had plenty o' that at times.
Poontank Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Aww, they are adorable! Confirms the age-old trope 'Everything's better with lesbians'! Just to be sure I mention it here - the download link to my alternate file is in post #9 on the previous page. Included are the unofficial Elsweyr patch, Iliana's LOD files, 'Tales from Elsweyr Anequina' and the very cool 'Topal Bay Walkabout' which I have cleaned with TES4edit.
PyreBorn Posted March 28, 2012 Author Posted March 28, 2012 Thanks to gregathit and PT The Comic Freak for the Elsweyr links, and to DogOnPorch for links to some mods I can't believe I missed. They are all appreciated And for anyone enjoying the added lands for Oblivion I highly recommend http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=37120 < Dibellas Watch. Adds the continent of Vasthelm to the game, I've enjoyed it so far. There are a few expansions for it on nexus as well.
Poontank Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 'Dibella's Watch' looks really promising, thanks for recommending this one! I've read the mod's title many times before, wouldn't have guessed it's a true expansion that adds new regions. After some disappointing experiences in the recent past with several high-profile expansions not working in my game despite all my efforts, I'm eager to get beautiful new regions to explore and use as 'exotic' backgrounds for my pictures. Enjoy the wonderful desert/savanna/jungle setting and the new quests, enemies and items Elsweyr has to offer!
gregathit Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I too was looking forward to Dibella's Watch but I never could get it to work. I think I must have blown 15-20 hours fussing with it before I gave up. Likely it boiled down to incompatibilities between the extensive plugin list that I already had The joys of modding
PyreBorn Posted March 28, 2012 Author Posted March 28, 2012 I too was looking forward to Dibella's Watch but I never could get it to work. I think I must have blown 15-20 hours fussing with it before I gave up. Likely it boiled down to incompatibilities between the extensive plugin list that I already had The joys of modding I had some issue but found this on Nexus' date=' using Wyre Bash to fix some CTDs I was having From Arthmoor: If you cannot give up slot 01 because another mod in your order is occupying it, there is a way out, but you need to be somewhat versed in using Wrye Bash to get around it. 1. Rename DibellasWatch.esm as DibellasWatch.esp. 2. Right click on the renamed file, select "ESPify self" 3. For the DibellasWatchAdditions.esp file, highlight it in Bash, then go to the right window pane. Select the DibellasWatch.esm file that's listed as a master and "change to" DibellasWatch.esp. If all that went well, set up the load order for DibellasWatch.esp however you like. I put my copy in the same area BOSS puts other province mods like Elsweyr. You can go to Anvil at that point and visit the continent just fine. Again, I *DO NOT* recommend you try the above though unless you have some idea of what you're doing. It will resolve the issue of not being able to play the mod because of Oblivion's stupid worldspace bugs. This method can also work for other mods of the same type that add large new worldspaces, but they can't all be converted this smoothly. You'll also need to be aware though that you have to do this procedure again if you're updating the mod or you'll lose all your progress in it and be back to having all the landscape missing. Helped for me, but not sure if it'll help all the time.
gregathit Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Thanks Pyreborn that was very thoughtful! I did all of the above and a great deal beyond that, but I still had collisions with OOO, Elsweyr, Better Cities and the other 170 some mods that I had running. In the end I was not willing to spend anymore time on it and was unwilling to give up any of the mods I had running so well together.
Poontank Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Seems like many mods of this type are having that problem. I couldn't get some of them to work, let alone the game to start properly, it simply froze on me even before the main menu was loaded. This described technique I hadn't tried because I didn't know this function of Bash before. Is this different from 'copy to esp'? Or is this maybe just the way it was handled in a previous version of Wrye Bash? Reading how it does away with a mod's necessity to load immediately after Oblivion.esm, it makes me want to try again to get these certain few mods to work, especially 'AlAlonim Ubanga'. Unfortunately, the mod has a set of dependent esps that must be loaded last - this certainly can't be good as the two esps 'LoversIdleAnimsPriority' and 'LoversAnimObjectsPriority' must be the last in the load order... It probably won't work anyway as the mod already has an esp of the same name as the file you get when ESPifying the esm.

The comments thread suggests he's disgruntled with the Nexus community. First I've heard of it *shrug* The whole user nexus community should be exterminated. Another great mod after Deadly Reflex is down because of those stupid fucks. Anyway I am looking for the link to Elsweyr's Kingdom of Rimmen.
gregathit Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Nov 2010 version is the latest available? Yep' date=' it is the last version that was made. See post #8 in this thread for mediaFire links to grab it. Anyway I am looking for the link to Elsweyr's Kingdom of Rimmen. That mod seems to have flat out disappeared.
