Manual Download

The COEF source is available under the Code/Downloads tab here on Github. The site will automatically provide a tar or zip archive of the latest source code.

Once downloaded, extract the contents of the Common-Oblivion-Engine-Framework\ folder in the archive to Oblivion\Data\OBSE\Plugins\COEF\.

Git Pull

If you have Git or one of it's cousins, you can use it to download ("pull") the COEF repository. Git can also be used to upload changes to COEF, if you are interested in contributing - see Contributing to COEF for details.

The git link for read-only access is git://github.com/JRoush/Common-Oblivion-Engine-Framework.git.

As with the manual download, the target directory should be Oblivion\Data\OBSE\Plugins\COEF\.

Moving COEF to an alternate directory

COEF can be installed in an alternate directory, but it requires additional steps:

  1. Move all files from Oblivion\Data\OBSE\Plugins\COEF\ to the new directory, except
    • ...\API\ExportInjector.dll
    • ...\API\ExportInjector.ini
    • ...\Components\Components.Game.dll
    • ...\Components\Components.CS.dll
  2. Open ExportInjector.ini and edit the "FileName" field to point to the API\ subfolder of the new directory. For example: 
    Filename = "*.eed"
    becomes 
    Filename = "C:\My Oblivion Mods\COEF\API\*.eed"
