Awesome new tutorial, thank you![edit source]

Well written, lots of pictures, thorough - it's wonderful.

I am a bit concerned about using just a random old mod, but I think that could be acceptable. Some discussion about that probably should occur... but probably won't...

Thanks DragoonWraith, you're welcome!
I completely understand your point about using an old mod, and to be honest, I didn't thought about that too deeply as I should. If you feel it could cause problems, I can rewrite it to not use any mod. Do you want to discuss it in some other open place? I understand that there's some sort of discussion topic here on the Wiki, right?
One solution I see is to make a fake mod, just creating a new ESP, and copying random records from Oblivion.esm, maybe changing some of them to show that their aren't removed, and then rewrite the tutorial using that file.
That should work the same as if it were a real mod. Maybe then I could upload the test file as an attachment so everyone who want to reproduce the steps can just download and repeat the procedure until they find comfortable with their understanding.
Just a thought, nothing else. Please, tell me what do you think about it? If you wish I'll work on it as soon as I have some spare time.
Best regards.

If you are willing to redo the images, I think that would be ideal. I just wasn't sure if you would want to redo all that work; felt kind of bad suggesting it. I think you can upload .esp files for this kind of use here on the Wiki, but if not I'll ask Gstaff to enable that for you. The G.E.C.K. Wiki has that ability, shouldn't be hard to add it for here.
By the way, the Wiki software ignores a single Return (so you have to use >br /<), but if you double-return, it creates a separate paragraph. You have to re-indent the new paragraph (actually, if you do a single Return and use the colon to indent, it will create a new paragraph, no need for a break tag in that case), but it makes the plain text much easier to read. I've edited your comment to use this instead of the break tags.

Thanks for the tip!! Well, good then. Hehe ... don't feel guilty. No problem on my part for that, I should have thought about it before doing it that way :)
I'll start working on it as soon as I have a few hours of spare time (most probably it will the next weekend, but it may be sooner than that I hope,) it's that ok? It's ok to keep this version as is until that time? I promise I will take care of it by the weekend, at the most ...

Excellent work, looks great! I changed a minor grammar typo, but other than that it seems perfect.

I will e-mail Gstaff about allowing .esp uploads here. Thanks for your fantastic contribution!

I got an auto-reply from Gstaff that he'll be out of the office until Dec 29, so probably won't get done until then. I'll try asking TS7, on the off-chance he's not also on vacation, but otherwise we either wait or you just put it on TES Nexus with appropriate links and the like.
