Hot new mods

It's been a while, so here's a little update for you Oblivion mod freaks ..
One of the coolest mods seen in a long time, almost a total conversion for Oblivion I would call it (since most other TC's never actually got finished and released !! Morrowind was more fortunate in that matter...)
Druid aka Path of the Druid mod for Oblivion ... the name says it all in this case. A mod that will allow you to play a Druid ! Read the mod of the day article on my favorite site :
Mod of the day : Path of the Druid

Then another cool one, Fransesco's optional items and creatures mod. This adds a lot of cool stuff to vanilla Oblivion. Download and install this one without even thinking about it .. it integrates seamlessly into Oblivion anyway !
Fransesco's optional items and creatures

that's it for today .... keep checking back here for tips for the very best mods for Oblivion !

Oblivion mods revived !

The entire has site been rebuilt after they had lost all the data, but it's all back online.
The Oblibion mod download database is slowly being filled again, and I noticed the admin is playing around with a new forum as well. Some of the old 'mod of the day' articles are back, and I also saw some new modder interviews !

bad news

The Oblivion Mods site is no more ... it's a very sad story which I will explain briefly here.

The site was hosted in sweden with friends of mine, and the server got hacked after I neglected to update the Joomla CMS installation. Then the server was taken down and I lost everything. I have some very old backups, but even if i restore those all I have is a vulnerable site that will be hacked soon again. Updating from such an old version to a newer one is a pain in the ass as well. I think I will have to setup a local server and restore everything on there, and then build a new site. That's going to be a ton of work I can tell you.

hundreds of downloads with nice desriptions and screenshots .. modder interviews ... other unique stuff .. hundreds of forum posts ... all gone ...

I'll let you guys know when I've got something back up there. Stay tuned for updates.
