You can count on me for testing this. Once I get back into Oblivion, I'll get this tested real fast.
What are we looking for? Specific Bugs? Missing meshes/textures?

anything that could be wrong
Thanks for wanting to test it

[Ysne58]

I'm working on getting Morrowind set up for the next couple of days. If you still need testing when I am finished with that, I will test.

started my testing today, heres my report thus far:
i did a manuel install of this mod, putting the .esp, meshes and textures in the data folder. the first place i went to was kvatch to get the amulet and spell. i went into the chapel and found the amulet, note and book with the spell right where you said they would be. i picked the note up and read, then picked up the amulet and picked up the book and read, getting Force Push when i did. I then put on my amulet, equipped Force Push and saved. I then casted on one of Kvatch's citizens in the chapel. Nothing however happened. The spell fired like it should, i saw the red ball fire at the actor, but when it hit her she just got angry and attacked me. I casted at one of the guards and nothing happened either. SO i reloaded and went to Drakelowe. Thus far i havent been able to find a thing in there for a new spell. i'm assuming its a book i'm looking for? I havent talked to the woman in there, but i will in a few moments.
Edit: it appears its not her either. Is it in the drakelowe basement? I cannot find the spells anywhere

actually the books aren't in a container over there but they're laying in a barrel

[John]

Found the book! hadnt noticed it with the pitchfork there! it seems i misunderstood you, i didnt relieze i needed blood to make the spells work. where can i find blood just killing enemies and such?
Edit: still couldnt find any blood on people, am i supposed to do something else or what? I'm not sure how to acquire it to use the spells...

[YX33A]

I can field this one. Dagon shrine, right next to the fancy book that's quest important.

[Dane]

well, the manuals *should* contain the specifics on how to make the spells work
the force push spell isn't in need of blood so I think thats buggy

[YX33A]

OK, so I have a amulet, a book, and a note, all from Kvatch, but I'm not sure if the amulet is the mentioned or something else.
Going to have to rush the main quest, because I need that blood spell.
Also, I can write out a proof read version of the note, if you don't mind. Or any book in the mod, which may or may not have the same issues of formatting.

@YX that's fine with me, I'll wait until you get all the spells before I go fix anything because then I know al broken spells

I downloaded this just now. After extracting it I noticed you do not have a readme file packaged with it. You will need to complete one and add it.

Later: This mod does not show up on the mod list when I try to load the game through OBMM. It also does not show up on the BOSS list when I run that.

It does show up as a data file when I load Oblivion with the original load screen. The first time I tried loading it I got a CTD within seconds of loading the game. The second time it did not CTD but I got an ingame notice that OBSE v. 18 was no longer running. I closed it out immediately and deactivated the mod.

I have never seen any of these issues before. Any idea what might be causing any of these to happen?

Later yet:

I have now updated to OBSE 19. I still get the OBSE is not running message when attempting to run a game with Cruento activated.

[Dane]

that's strange I don't get the message and it should work I'll check OBMM
EDIT:
Checked OBMM (isn't showing up)
Checked Wrye (shows up)
Checked BOSS (shows up)
I don't know how to fi9x the OBMM problem I did notice it says .ESP instead of .esp

Ok, so it shows up when you run BOSS but not when I run BOSS. I will try running BOSS a different way and see if I can get it to show up that way. I am on Windows 7.
Would that make a difference?

As far as BOSS goes, I am running version 1.6 which was the last version Wrinkly had tested here.

[Dane]

I also use Windows7 so it shouldn't make a difference

how strange i didnt experience any of these issues except the one where it doesnt show in ObMM. must be the all capitalized extension, try renaming to .esp and see what happens.
