Top 10 Mods For Oblivion
SkyUI is undoubtedly the undefeated king when it comes to UI mod improvements. Whilst the base Skyrim UI is clunky and inefficient for mouse/keyboard use, SkyUI has been built from the ground up to be as clean-cut and responsive as possible.Everything from finding items to sorting it in a manageable way has been implemented on SkyUI. You’re able to use text search to quickly find items, organize by different modifiers, and access items based on new categories such as smithing, crafting, enchanting, and alchemy. The entire interface is also incredibly customizable so that players can remove or adjust features they don’t find useful. Live Another LifeSome of the best mods are those that give you alternate gameplay experiences that steer away from the vanilla game.
