Modder ‘Halk Hogan’, known for his HD Reworked Projects for The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, has released his first mods for Oblivion Remastered. So, let’s take a closer look at them, shall we?
The first mod introduces high-quality skin to all characters. The mod improves body details, from toes to neck, for all female and male characters. It will affect all races except of Argonians and Khajiits. Plus, it covers both the main character and the NPCs. You can download it from here.
The second mod adds 8K body textures to the game for the Imperials. It packs 8K diffuse textures and 2K normal maps. As I said, this mod will only cover the Imperial race. In theory, the modder will cover other races in the future. So, hopefully, he will release an AIO modlist that will include all of them.
The third mod reworks faces textures to be much smoother and younger. For best results, Halk Hogan recommends putting the player age slider in character creation on maximum left (youngest possible age). However, even if you haven’t done that, the mod will improve the faces of all ages. It’s a cool mod that takes advantage of the RHQS Mod. In fact, Halk Hogan recommends using both of them.
It will be interesting to see whether we’ll get an HD Reworked Project for Oblivion Remastered. To be honest, most of the textures used in Oblivion Remastered are fine. But then again, that’s what we were saying for TW3, too.
Speaking of Oblivion Remastered, you can also download some other cool mods for it. For instance, you can download mods that can revert the Male/Female setting change. We also have a mod that can improve the graphics of the game. Plus, you can download a mod that enables every creature and NPC to catch on fire from open flames.
A couple of days ago, we shared mods that restored the game’s original colours, extended the light radius, and enabled unique feminine locomotion for female characters. Thus, I recommend checking them out.
Earlier this month, we also shared the first 4K Texture Pack for the game. This pack improved the textures of armors, weapons, clothing, and jewelry. To upscale the vanilla textures, its modder used AI tools. As such, the new textures retained the art style of the original ones.
Yesterday, we also shared a mod that aims to improve the behavior of all animals. So, make sure to download it.
Finally, we know that Virtuos is working on the first patch for Oblivion Remastered. Right now, there is no ETA for when it will come out. However, I really hope it won’t break compatibility with the mods that have already come out. This is something we’ve seen in other Bethesda games, like Skyrim. So, let’s hope that things will be better in Oblivion Remastered.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

lmao the unmodded skin in the first screenshot… Do the texture artists never bathe or something? It looks dry as fug
looks like the texture of a car plastic/leather surface dashboard
An elephant's skin.
Considering most of the dev teams are disgusting woke land whales. I'm sure you're not far off. They are not known to bath or wash themselves for days.
Damn that skin looks disgusting!
And even the mod makes it only slightly better though.
I don't know if the artists live in Skid Row or something and that they're used to see Fentanyl-fed zombies, but gee, my skin looks infinitely smoother than this, and I'm in my 40s.
Smooth textures for smoothbrains who think this looks any better.
Nuff said!
I prefer the original, more grainy look. it`s realistic, the "improved: version looks like some instagram beauty filter.
Exactly, it just looks like sh*t!
Original looks awesome!
Never been much into mods, as they often f*ck up the graphics and looks like trash. Only mods for higher res textures etc are okey!
she still got those fat arab lips. like kissing a dam camel no thank.
lmao you're Jewish? Jews are same ethnicity as Arabs unless they're fake Jews.
im not jewish you fruit loop. im american
Jewish American then
You should know better.
Look at the nick of the lad there.
Brother those big lips can be used for something else. Like wrapped around my mushroom tip. Mmm
Most if not all the faces need to be fixed so they don't look so disturbing. This is just skin deep.
You’re so awesome! I don’t believe I have read a single thing like that before. So great to find someone with some original thoughts on this topic. Really.. thank you for starting this up. This website is something that is needed on the internet, someone with a little originality!
One of the best modders out there. Looking forward to seeing what else he does for this game. Would love to pair them with the dismemberment mod.
Smooth faces – yeah if you like Rubber totaly clay unrealistic Look. Then this POS mod, is for you!
smoother belly button?….. wha ar yo gae?
The game looks fantastic. The big downside is the old gen used on the skins of the npc.
the world texture packs are awesome though.
Those women look stoned.
Are you saying they're from Afghanistan?
Oblivion Beverly Hills edition.
If the textures would look like that mod by default there would be a texture pack to make them look like they are now.
LOL
Indeed.
So it went from leather face to plastic face. gg
This must be the shïttiest MOD attempt that I've ever seen!
Now everyone will look like Instagram whöres!
