It's more than what we've got so far so i'll talk all the advice I can get. Yea that's what I was thinking since they already have programs developed for the PC it would be easy to or at least easier to create or convert into so to speak than coming up with something brand new. Anyways though I'm hoping something comes up soon but I just think part of the reason is Oblvion, at this point, is slightly outdated and therefore not on people's minds as much as a game thats just coming out but really it's a shame all these modders for the PC who, I'm sure atleast a portion of, are PS3 owners themselves and don't seem to have any incentive to port the programs over to PS3...

Just a heads up, Mr. GotHisAssBanned over there also stole this guide from the source below. Its the DOC file you had to download.
