2018 and this MOD is still going strong...but I'm still confused after reading the instructions for all Loading Screens replacers...
I've followed the instructions BEFORE installing OOO, as stated in the read me from the AddOn pack: If you have LSTR and LSTR:SI installed: - copy 'LoadingScreens.esp' file from 'LSA_Optional\AddOn+Base+SI' to 'Oblivion\Data' and overwrite old file.
So then for OOO, from the read me in the AddOn pack... If you have separate LSTR patch for OOO installed: - copy 'LoadingScreensAddOn.esp' file to 'Oblivion\Data'. Don't use any files from optional folder as those aren't compatible with patch for OOO.
It's the next line and the OOO Patch instructions that confuses me: From the AddOn pack readme In Oblivion Launcher choose 'Data Files' from menu and mark the checkbox close to 'LoadingScreensAddOn.esp' or 'LoadingScreens.esp' if you chose that one.
If I didn't have OOO, if I follow the instructions, you load the LoadingScreens.esp from the optional folder because that LoadingScreens.esp will load the screens from all three packs. I wouldn't activate the LoadingScreensSI.esp or the LoadingScreensAddOn.esp.
If I do use OOO, I don't use the LoadingScreens.esp from the optional folder. So do I only use LoadingScreensAddOn.esp? Will that only pull in AddOn screens but not Vanilla or SI? Now when you say to use LoadingScreensAddOn.esp OR LoadingScreens.esp, is that the LoadingScreens.esp from the Vanilla LoadingScreens? Will that mean that only Vanilla screens are used?
Now after loading the LoadingScreens-OOO.esp after OOO, I activate the LoadingScreens-OOO.esp. What other esp from what other pack do I activate? Can you have LoadingScreens.esp, LoadingScreensSI.esp, LoadingScreensAddOn.esp and LoadingScreens-OOO.esp activated and be done with it?
I guess the end question is, what ESPs do I activate and from wich MOD if I want all four activated?
Anyone know why some of my loading screens have the text cut off at the bottom? I guess some of the fonts are too big but I can't pinpoint the cause. I'm using Darn UI and I'm pretty sure that I made this mod overwrite Darn UI. I installed Darn UI in OBMM first, but my primary mod manager is Wrye Bash. After installing Darn UI in OBMM, I installed this mod in Wrye Bash.
Darn UI has an option during install that has compatibility for this and Loading Screens Themed Addon.Choose Trollf Loading Screens during DarnUI installation. It edits Loading_menu.XML to play nice with these two mods.I don't use OBMM but in the BAIN installer it's in folder 101.
Complaints about mod-specific stuff showing up notwithstanding (and you can replace the "offending" images pretty easily) this is 1000% better than the vanilla loading screens, which all look like they were made in 1988 on an Amiga by a teenager.
Nice idea but the non vanilla clothing and actions ruin it...Woman in halter top drinking coffee on Oblivion loading screen? Why make a mod like this with 50% of screens showing things that can't happen in the game.. Also, you need the ini edit fix described by Wenslydale below or it wont even display properly. 5/10
I'm not sure what is happening but there seems to be two distinct screen styles -- some use the native text below the picture, some use Photoshopped text embedded directly in the picture.I'm really not a fan of the latter and wish they all followed the same style.

Hello I think it is a very good mod, but they could not get the translation into Spanish if it is not much annoyance
All the text is inside the picture for me :/
