Requirements: Oblivion Patch 1.2.0.416, Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE)

Description
===========
A simple 'convenience' mod for vampires. Days are shorter (x0.66), nights are longer (x4).
You'll get a warning message 1 hour before sunset, and 30 minutes before sunrise (because time passes slower at night, 30 minutes is more than enough).
Also, the rooster's cocka-doodle-doo will be heard twice before sunrise, and again when the sun rises.

Details
=======
This is a total rewrite of syclonix's 'Longer Nights for Vampires' mod with additional features.

OBSE is required because OBSE functions are used in the mod to get the time of sunset/sunrise for the current climate, if another mod changes the climate, the player will still get the reminder correctly.

In Oblivion, the mod keeps tracking the time in Tamriel so when you leave Oblivion, there will be no nasty suprises from the Sun.

In v1.0: If you fail to hide from the sun, when your health drops to 50 percent of your base health, you'll burst into flames. The flames will not do any extra damage, they are just an eyecandy effect to remind you that vampires and sunlight do not mix. The flames will go out if you start swimming or when you enter an interior are where you are safe from the sun or if you heal yourself above 50 percent of your base health.

Install
=======
1. Copy the contents of the Data folder in the compressed archive to your (install folder)\Oblivion\Data\ directory.
2. Make sure that OBSE v0016 or newer is installed.
2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click 'Data Files', place a checkmark beside the .esp file(s).

Uninstall
=========
1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s).
2. Delete the .esp file from \Oblivion\Data\
3. Load your last savegame, it will complain about the mod not being found, ignore it. Open the console, type 'set timescale to LVNOldTimeScale' to restore the timescale used before installing the mod. As a safety measure, save and overwrite your last savegame.


Incompatibility
===============
Not that I know of.

Known Issues or Bugs
====================
- Uninstallation is a bit complicated, I will try to add an uninstall block to the mod in a later version.
- There may be bugs or conflicts, please bear with me, I'm new to modding. (I have some PHP experience but that's all).

=======

Example:
0.9, 05/19/2010 - Initial release. Sunrise warning with rooster, sunset warning (without sound).
