Great mod. My parents used to kinda bother me when I played oblivion, but now they don't mind. I just think Oblivion's storyline itself (Without gore or bloody corpses) can scare some smaller kids when playing, like the dark brotherhood, and maybe the storyline too.
I'll endorse it for the person who actually is kid-protective.
I have an idea, you could replace the companion cubes with skeletons, kids see them every halloween, and if that is too harsh (Overprotective parents much?) you could just hang a plain suit of armor (Daedric most likely).
I would DL but I don't mind gore. This mod is perfect for child-proofing Oblivion, if the parents don't mind if the children play Oblivion(Which I believe some don't) but don't want to scare them. Now I just wish someone would make a no foul language mod :p
OH wow. I was just playing a sneaky char, and apparently the blood splatter on the floor didn't QUITE get replaced properly. For some reason, a texture with nothing but Alpha displays as a black box in Oblivion. I've got a fix in the works, that'll be practically invisible. Hold on.
EDIT: Fixed. Also uploaded comparison shots between my mod, No Blood Corpse mod, and vanilla.
The companion cubes are optional. They're in an entirely separate directory, and are really only added for laughs. Trust me, if I could find something else that fit in those spots that DIDN'T look really out of place, you can bet I'd swap that in. Unfortunately I can't think of any diamond-shaped meshes that stay floating in mid air and have the correct properties to count as a container (hanging corpses don't have much loot, but they DO have loot, which means a noncontainer mesh actually changes the game ever so slightly), so miniature Sigil Stone containers are currently impossible.
On that note, if I was actually skilled at modeling I'd replace the corpses on ropes with a Companion Cube on a rope, which would at least make more sense than floating heart crates. As is, the companion cubes are just there for lulz.
I would think that it would work better to have something just a little gross, or have something like an invisible mesh or mist cloud rather than a great big box with a heart on it wherever a hanging corpse would be.
I can understand the gore reduction intent of this mod, but the boxes with hearts don't quite match the rest of the decor in various dungeons.
