Welcome to

The Elder Scrolls


Construction Set Wiki

Featured Article

A Beginner's Guide

This is a series of Tutorial Lessons aimed at teaching how to mod TES IV: Oblivion aimed at beginners. It will build up into a Complete Modding Course. Don't worry; there are no exams, though there is some homework. It is not intended to aid the transfer of modders from Morrowind nor it is intended for experienced modders, though experienced users may find something of interest here.

The lesson structure will begin by looking at buildings and structure Mods. They will then move on to NPC's, scripting and Quest Writing. Finally they will explore texturing and re-meshing.

It will at times be very simplistic, but as the series develops they will delve deeper into the Construction Set's functions. The series allows you to work from a base knowledge of zero.

So if you've never modded before and feel inspired then join me.

Did You Know...

Using the TES CS Wiki

The Elder Scrolls Construction Set Wiki is a very large resource - if this is your first time using it, it can be quite daunting! Even if you have been using the Wiki for months, there's almost certainly things here that you didn't even know about.

So come this way for a list of tips and tricks for finding the information you want, for improving your experience, and for simple ways you can help out!

 

The Elder Scrolls Construction Set Wiki

This is a community-run site where you'll find everything you need to use the The Elder Scrolls Construction Set and make mods for Oblivion. You'll find documentation on the Construction Set, tutorials on how to build your own dungeons and quests, and more.

Please check out the Welcome to the Wiki guide for more information about what we're striving for and how you can help, and take a look at our Community Portal to see what we're working on at the moment!

Wiki News: August 7, 2007

Welcome to the first ever Wiki News!

Several updates have been made to the Wiki recently. First of all, notice the new Community Portal, complete with its very own link in your Navigation toolbar! This is the place for discussions, thoughts, and comments on the Wiki - feel free to comment on any thing you'd like to see done! Or learn all about what we do here and help out!

Secondly, and this is huge, the Search function has been changed to search Categories and User Pages by default. This 'is very important, because a very large amount of information is included in Category pages, which you previously could not find by Searching. If you had previously created an account, your preferences were not changed! You can set your own preferences in the Preferences page, under Search.

Also, please note the creation of Article Tags. You can easily help out at the Wiki by learning what these tags are and how to use them, and marking any articles that you come across that fit in these categories! If there are other tags you would like to see, please say so in the appropriate section of the Community Portal.

Finally, highlighting a policy change. While the rules themselves are not new, previously they had been unclear and unenforced. When submitting articles onto the Wiki, you are officially waiving any special rights you have to that text - it may be edited, moved, or deleted by others as necessary. You may, of course, maintain the article, and contributors are expected to discuss an article in its Talk page when multiple people are working on it. Therefore, you may not add a "byline" to the article, as this discourages others from improving the article.

Articles which had been bylined before have been marked, and those authors will be contacted regarding their wishes for the articles.

Please go to the Community Portal for the latest news and discussions here at the Wiki.
