About this mod

===================== ATTENTION: This software is no longer supported (hasn\'t been worked on in years). I now highly suggest people to use Wyre Bash for all their saving and mod needs. http://wryemusings.com/Wrye%20Bash.html This software probably doesn\'t even work on Vista/7 so don\'t even try :D If you found this tool useful in the past

This software probably doesn't even work on Vista/7 so don't even try.

If you found this tool useful in the past consider visiting http://kyorisu.net and http://rurisu.net where we blabber about whatever nonsense we consider posting on the internets.
=====================

About: The first editor didn't work so well and I thought up this with my brother.

Instructions: Copy the TES IV Save Manager.exe to any folder you like.

If you already have characters make sure you copy each characters saves to my documents/my games/oblivion/saves/Character Name/

When you run the program it will scan the save directory for character directories. Upon hitting load it will alter your oblivion.ini's default save location. This allows for all characters to have their own autosave.

You can also create a new character which again changes the defualt save location and auto creates the directory (oblivion can auto create, but this is just safer).

Character Image
---------------

To use the image feature take any image and rename it to char.jpg and place it into your characters save folder. Note - litterly use char.jpg not your characters name.



Prompts
---------

Active Save - the current active save
Last Operation - Load or New
Outcome of Operation - Success or Fail. Fail shouldn't happen.
Dir Listing Mode - On or Off, On will make the program use it's root directory rather than XP's MYDOC hack.
Game Difficulty: Alters the game difficulty
Rename Screenshots: Alters defualt screenshot name to CharacterName01,02,03 etc

Note: Please make sure you follow the instructions for existing characters.
