If you have enough lockpicks for the a better set of picks, a new set of picks will be added to your inventory (the quality of the lockpicks depend on the number of lockpicks in your inventory, see section 5d).
To upgrade to a better lockpick open your inventory and find the vanilla lockpicks.
When the mod is loaded for the first time, it will convert vanilla lockpicks to the best possible equipable lockpick. You may have to reconfigure the mod through menus (more in section 5). There shouldn’t be any problems in upgrading from older saves. Uncheck ZumbsLockpickingMod.esp in the launcher and delete the five files mentioned above. Wait three days (or whatever your respawn time is). To uninstall the mod, remove all lockpicks from your inventory (except for vanilla Oblivion lockpicks). If you wish to hide the difficulty of a lock, also make sure that ZumbsLockpickingMod – Hide Difficulty Addon.esp is checked. Scroll down the list until you find ZumbsLockpickingMod.esp and make sure the box is checked. In the launcher, press the button “Data Files”. If you prefer to keep the minigame as an option, remove \menus\lockpick_menu.xml first. If you wish to disable the minigame, just copy all files into your “Data” folder. This time there are a few options, so you’ll have to copy the files to a temporary location, and open the folder “Data” in folder where you installed Oblivion (probably “C:\Games\Oblivion\Data”). ZumbsLockpickingMod – Hide Difficulty Addon.esp The mod should contain the following files: Installation and uninstallation a: Installation It should work with older versions, but I haven’t tried it out. This mod is made for TES4: Oblivion version. Please take your time to read it.Ī new and more advanced version of this mod is available here.
Beware that someone may see you and report your crime! A more detailed description of how to use the mod can be found in section 5 below. When one of these lockpicks is equiped, you can attempt to pick a lock by pointing the lockpick towards a locked item and leftclicking. The mod adds three new equipable lockpicks. This mod gives you the option of getting rid of the lockpicking minigame and replace it with one that is much more realistic. Have you ever wondered why time magically seemed to stop when you started lockpicking? Even if it took you 500 tries? Or why a falling tumbler could break your lockpick? Or what happended to all those broken pieces in the lock? I did, and that’s why I made this mod. This shows how holding the lockpicks looks in 1st person while sneaking.
