PS3 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Minor DLCs on PS3 + Vampire Cure bug fix

[RollingThunder]

Aside from the two major add-ons included in the Game of the Year edition, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion had a bunch of small DLCs that were never released on PS3 in any capacity and were only available on PC and X360. I was able to get them all working on PS3 (models, textures, voiceovers - the whole nine yards) as well as fix the infamous Vampire Cure bug that made one of the quests unbeatable in the English version of the PS3 GOTY. I would love to share the files, however I don't know if it would be against the rules or not - those ARE official DLCs, however they were never available for the PlayStation version.

i am not a lawyer, but i think it might be a bad idea. maybe it would better to explain how you got them working?

In general you should avoid redistributing official files under copyright whenever you can.
If there are patches to apply to official files, you can post them in ppf or a similar format.
If other files must be downloaded or copied, you could provide a batch file for that or similar.
If the processing is too complex for a batch file alone, you can use a language like python as a last resort.

Yes, I guess this is the route I'll have to take, though unfortunately that means I'll have to redo the entire process just to remember the exact steps needed - it did take me quite a few tries to get everything just right, and it was over a year ago.

Any update on this? Been trying to get them working myself with little to no success, can't seem to get the .BSAs to load without the game crashing

An xdelta patch for the files might could work as it only creates a file containing user-made data.

Also, this can fix the vampirism issue and works on PS3: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/11083

Also don't forget to capitalize all the file names and extensions when using mods on PS3.

Well, it's gonna sound stupid, but by the time I sat down to write this guide I realized I... forgot all the details and remembering them would require me to basically retrace all my steps.

I did post the files I ended up with elsewhere on the net, so with a bit of googling you should be good.

Do you at least have the site name or something to make the search easy?
