The proposed install path did not work for me; there were no data files to load (ObvData actually has an empty Data folder in it). I had to install it to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvDataAnd not one level deeper, as suggested. This reflects the structure in OG Oblivion..
Hey all! I'm trying to open the TES Construction set for the remastered. I can see all the data files, but when i check the mod with the armor I want to edit, and the Oblivion base one, it infinitely loads, and freezes. Any suggestions?
Hi. I downloaded Version 1.2.404. CS starts up but I can't load any esm Files, after clicking "Data..." in the "File" menu nothing shows up to choose from, the window is empty. What did I do wrong?
"For me, here's what I did step by step - note that I play the original oblivion sometimes, so this works for me. You can just skip step 1 if you don't have it
Install original oblivion
Install CK. There's no file path it asks you, it just installs on your PC regardless into the Oblivion folder in step 1
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion\ folder, and copied both the TESConstructionSet.exe and ssce5432.dll into a new folder
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\ and paste the 2 files from step 3
Launch TESConstructionSet.exe in the new remastered folder
File > Data > Double click Oblivion.esm. Should work now
you can also ask in the obliv remaster modding discord, someone may be able to help."
Except for me and it won't save a new file. Well it will "save" the first time but after that the asterisk next to the file name wont go away and the esp is nowhere.
Has anyone else had the construction set take forever to load a plugin? It's been loading for an hour at the time of writing, and I know it's doing *something* as CPU utilization is hovering around 3 cores' worth (whether that "something" is actual progress or spinning in an infinite loop, I don't know).

So after MANY hours i finally opened Construction Set Extended (CSE), you need a specific .dll file from this original construction set, anyone who says CSE is a standalone is wrong. Also this basic construction set doesnt do anything to the game, you NEED CSE too along with obse to mod oblivion internally
The FIRST thing you have to do and that nobody has said is you need to make sure Oblivion Remastered is installed outside of program files, personally i formatted a spare drive on my computer and named it 'GAMES', and went to the steam settings under storage, added that drive, then moved oblivion remastered to that drive.
then you need to install this construction set which is the original, into the Obvdata folder (one folder back from the main data folder with esps) next extract the obse (old) then the CSE both also in the Obvdata folder. if you already installed and uninstalled CS forty times like me and worried about wiping registry keys, dont, i didnt wipe anything and it worked regardless, so nerd level doesnt have to be robotics tier. Turn on administrator priveledges for Obse in the properties, open the CSE batch file and it should work.
NOTE: i only opened it, i have had zero minutes to tinker with it yet
Thanks for this! Thankfully, due to early problems with having Steam libraries in Program Files and resulting permission issues, I've long since installed all my games into Games folders on my drives, including the main Steam install, itself.
hey everyone i have a problem with this, For some reason every DLC related item just comes back as an error when i spawn it in. Ive tried making sure that the dlc is active when i select my Data files but they still don't load. Id like to be able to use items from the dlc for my house mod but cant get it working. does anyone else have this problem? anyone know a fix?
Under the instructions, it is stated to put in the data folder, that did not work. It wasn't showing .esp's when loading CK. i put in in the folder before data... the ObvData folder and it worked. and now showing all esp's e.t.c.

Can anyone explain me why I can't find Oiblivion.esm on the Data list? - What am I doing wrong?
.... I was trying to follow this guide AI provided for me:
Any help is much appreciated! 💚
