This mod can be installed with WB, as to MO2, probably too but I never used MO2 for Oblivion, so I don't know if it can install a mod that is packed in a way WB always use, such as Francesco mod here; try it and see.
An error occurred in the wizard script:
Line 520:SelectSubPackage "08 Optional Extras SI"
Error:(Line 520, Column 42): Sub-package '08 Optional Extras SI' is not a part of the installer.
The mod seems to run fine without it, but I'm not sure if i'm missing out on anything important here. Should I just forget about it?
So, unpack the main file, then unpack the update file and move update's files over to folder containing the main file content, say yes to replace files. Then pack what you have, move it into WB's Installer folder and install using Wrye Bash's wizard.
EDITED: and it would be good to stick that post so that it remained on top. Unfortunately, I didn't get response for my queries to stick some posts yet. Might be good if someone bump it if it got buried then, but such things rarely happen.
I found a really old post on some Japanese website that mentions an "aaNoRunBackwards" quest which could be disabled by one of the patches for Fran 4.5b. except -- in the post it is said that the quest is part of MOBS?.. and the 4.5b patches are obsolete and gone from nexus, naturally.
aaNoRunBackwards seems to be part of THIS mod's .esm file, and there's nothing that mentions speed in the .ini file.
confused. also, I have literally zero knowledge of modding and I don't wanna mess things up.
please help?
That said, it's part of Combat Tweaks .esm (01 - Combat Tweaks folder) that is chosen during installation (but without it, other things will be off too).

Just download the "No MOBS run limit" file, I tested it and it works fine for version 5.
IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS check out this fine guide: https://sites.google.com/site/khettienna/mod-user-guides/mod-use-troubleshooting
=============================================================================
IF YOU CHOSE TO USE MOBS with Francesco, install standalone MOBS as well: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/28537 (install MOBS Shivering Isles - if you have GOTY or SI version and MOBS Knights DLC Fixed 2b - if you have KOTN(included in GOTY) and/or DLCs).
IF YOU USE OTHER MODS THAT ADDS NEW WEAPONS, check out MOBSification of MODS: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/45522 (you may easily make your own patch for any mod with instructions there too; I even wrote an article there about why MOBS is important: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/articles/44198
IF YOU WANT MORE WEAPON DAMAGE (for shorter fights) check out this page: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/17621 (these are patches for Frans 4.5b but that particular patch - Francesco's Optional Skill Based Damage & Durability - will work with 5.0 with no problem).
IF YOU ENCOUNTERED CALIPER BUG (lots on calipers in NPCs inventory):
use this fix mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/41961
as an alternative you might uninstall Frans, resave the game, reinstall Frans, wait in game for 3 days + 1 hour for leveled lists (with loot, NPCs and so on) reset.
You may alternatively try console commands to fix the bugs (make sure to hit Enter after each line...):
StopQuest FranLoot
Set FranLoot.ReSet to 1
Set FranLoot.Set to 0
Set FranLoot.DoOnce to 0
StartQuest FranLoot
=============================================================================
This post may be useful for Frans users, so hopefully it might be pinned or bumped in the future.
""Francescos Optional Skill Based Damage and Durability
Based of the MMM plug, and provided with permission. tweaked to remove the 50% increase to base damage. ""
looks like this patch has been tweaked! no more extra damage!

I found that the extra damage from skill is quite enough for faster fights (matter of taste perhaps) - and the satisfaction - that your skill in a weapon matters more now is good too ;)
