Povuholo Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) Tweakguides' Oblivion Tweak Guide is a regularly updated tweak guide for Oblivion. This article explains many lines of the Oblivion.ini file you can change to either improve the visual quality, performance, or something else. Both high and and low end machines can take advantage of these tweaks. It also has screenshots which show what the different game settings do and change in the game. And there's more. Just go there and start tweaking! :thumbsup: Edited April 16, 2008 by Povuholo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThetaOrionis01 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 There are two .ini files - the _default one in Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion, and one in My Documents\Games\Oblivion. It's the latter you should modify. If you open the .ini in a text editor you should be able to search for any terms you can't find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverstar Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Here's a major suggestion for anyone using an ATi card(I'm using a Sapphire Radeon X1600 Pro 512, for instance): Grab and use ATi Tray Tools. You will NOT regret it! AA 6x enabled through Oblivion: getting ~30 frames in dungeons.AA 6x enabled through ATi Tray Tools(disabling the application-specific setting): Getting ~40 frames in the same dungeons. And it doesn't disable taking screenshots in the game! :) (sorry for posting some of this to the screenshot topic as well.. it applies to both, since I'm getting 10-20 frames more using the driver-level AA, compared to the game-level AA) Just did an actual performance test with the ATi Tray Tools software(Hardware> overlocking settings> bench) and the performance difference is absolutely freaking astounding! o.o Without AA: 1881.77With AA 6x: 3476.85 And to compare it to other cards, the Radeon X800 Pro, which has far more graphics power overall than the X1600 Pro, scores 3558.41.The rating for the X1600 XT, which is the higher level version of the X1600, only scores a 2671.15 on the benchmark. Which means that by enabling hardware-level AA x6, you're almost doubling your performance. And no, I'm not overclocking at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webby_0005 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 (edited) Hey, i used the guide and it made my GeForce 6600 256MB run it on 1280x1024 resolution with everything on nearly full (except grass on lowest view and no antialiesing) Defenetely Pin-Worthy EDIT: Removed that link. Looked highly suspicious to me. Edited April 29, 2006 by Switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
