How do I fix an page that has errors due to vandalism?
To revert is to undo all changes made after a certain time in the past. The result will be that the page becomes identical to how it used to be at some previous time. A partial revert undoes only some of those changes.
To revert a page to an earlier version:
- Go to the page you wish to revert, click on the History tab at the top of the page, then click on the time and date of the earlier version you want to revert to. It will not work if you click on 'cur', 'last', or "Compare selected versions".
- When the page displays, text similar to this: (Revision as of 23:19 Jul 15, 2003), will display. It appears below the page's title, in place of the From {project name}, usually seen.
- Verify that you've selected the correct version, then click a link to edit the page as you would normally.
- You'll get a warning, above the edit box, about editing an out-of-date revision.
- Ignore the warning and save the page. Be sure to add the word "revert" (or "rv") to the edit summary.
You can also email a mod and they can fix the problem, as well.

Do I need a copy of Oblivion to use The Elder Scrolls Construction Set?
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is required to create and play content created with The Elder Scrolls Construction Set. However, the Construction Set will install and work without the game.
When I start the Construction Set without Oblivion loaded, I get several errors.
Simply click on Yes to All to skip the errors. The Construction Set looks for several default textures and meshes, but you can open it and look at the Construction Set without the art. However, to start creating any content, you will need Oblivion installed.
Will Morrowind's master file and plugins work with The Construction Set for Oblivion? Can I run Oblivion with plugins from Morrowind?
