Both games now gone.
Bioshock 2 and Morrowind GOTY
Ok, bought these the other day and have had a play with Morrowind but the graphics look that dated (even with MGE etc) I wont bother with it any further.
I've completed Bioshock 2 and whilst its an ok game I probs wont play it again.
I'd rather give these away than accept the pittance I'd be offered at trade in value or have em sat on a shelf, so first one to reply to this post gets to take their pick and the second gets the game thats left, then I'll chuck em in a jiffy bag and whack em in the post.
UK people only please, would cost me a fortune to send them otherwise.
Regards, Mart.

Yeah, I'm certain there will be a single-player TES.
I hope so Ub3rman I really do, an MMO could be fun in some respects but the biggest part of TES for me now is the modding side of things, people have come up with some fantastic stuff for Oblivion (yourself included) but I was wondering / looking forward to seeing what could be done with a new game with a more efficient game engine etc.
Guess we'll have to keep our fingers crossed and wait and see.

Hope that if and when TES 5 comes out I can buy it on DVD and not need steam or anything else to play it.
Call me old fashioned but I like to hand over my cash and walk out of the shop with whatever I've bought, Its that " yeah, thats mine now and I can go home and put it on whichever of my computers I want" peace of mind thing for me. :thumbsup:

This is what happens when you use a joke in everyday life (true story):
I was once asked by an iritating co-worker of mine, "What is your beef with christianity?"
I replied "They do stupid things"
"Like what?", he demanded.
"Well, like the christian baptism ritual", I expained.
"What is wrong with baptism?" he demanded, outraged and almost hyterical.
I looked at him and coldly replied, "For starters, your priests don't hold them under anywhere near long enough"
Needless to say, he doesn't talk to me any more.
Thats a beaut, have to remember that ome :biggrin:

I am 32, served 11 years in the Marines, 2 tours in Iraq, married with 2 kids, I play a female character... I wear whatever armor I think looks nice on the character. I think mods like DMRA are a lil much though, My body mod is HGEC (Dcup/LL) and 99% of the time I wear the Hentai Persona armor/Clothing. I'm not going to play some male character looking like he just shot up 47 syringes full of steroids to make me more secure with my sexuality.
There is no rule that says only men can play male characters
I drive a Mitsubishi Evo, you might drive a Ford Mustang. We all have different tastes, you might hate Mitsubishi. To each his own.
My wife walked over the other night while I was playing and goes "Wow she looks hott, Good job hun" To give you an idea of what some women think about it.
Skimpy, unrealistic, overdone, fantasy, and the like are what games are all about, are they not? How many of us have played Super Mario Brothers? How many of us go around bouncing on peoples heads to kill them throughout the day? The point it it's a game...
People don't play a game to represent themselves, they play to get away from themselves... I played enough "Man" games, when I got shot at daily, mortars dropped on my head, and having friends die...
I'm not trolling or flaming, although things like "they get off on it" are an open door for a closed thread... That imho is a little bit immature to say about people you don't know...
That is all, carry on.
~Tabu
Edit: In a nutshell I'll sum it up this way, If I am going to dedicate hours upon hours to this game I would rather be looking at Beyonce the whole time rather than Batista...
Post of the month.
You said it better than I could Tabu, and you hit the nail on right the head.
To the OP
We're all differnt and we all like different things, I play a female char for pretty much the same reasons as Tabu and many others.
I admit its a pain when you see a nice set of armor and find its female only, as I felt the same when its been the other way round and the armor I'd seen was male only.
If you ask nicely in the "Mod Request" section though, somebody may be kind enough to do a conversion for you if you really like a set of armor.
And check out Alien Slof's mods too, she's done some fantastic conversions and made a lot of stuff herself as she plays male characters, her work is top notch too, never had any probs with any of her mods.
Regards, Mart.

@Marthos: Looks like "Ys Lilia" by Zeo, though the color of the armor in your pic appears to be in full white. If you're not bothered by the color, then you can refer to this post on how to obtain it.
On the top right corner of the following screenshot is what you would get:

@Odile: Thanks and kudos for you and author.

Husband and wife are getting ready for bed and as usual she's gawking at herself in the mirror, "darling" she says, "I want bigger boobs, can I have a boob job ?"
"I have a better idea" he says, "wipe a piece of tissue between your breasts every day".
"Will that work ? will that make them bigger ?" she asks.
"Should do" he says, "it worked on your bloomin ass".

Somebody said age is a state of mind, couldn't be more correct.
I'm 42, have taken very early retirement and my only worry is that one of my black labradors keeps retrieving my mouse and dissappearing with it, its usually rather soggy when I get it back.
How old do I feel, like I'm 10 years old on christmas morning, every day :biggrin:

Hi all
Have spent a while hunting about so think I'm gonna be out of luck on this one.
Has anyone ever come across a hawk or eagle companion or CM partner ?
Thanks in advance, Mart.

I was also pretty dissapointed with DA, it could have been awesome, (should have been awesome) but it made me just want to get back to Tamriel for the same reasons as others have stated, and that camera was a pain.
Totally agree with Trandoshan & Illiad about having imagination, when I play Oblivion, I'm not sat in front of a screen with a keyboard and mouse, I'm in Tamriel.
Just hope that if & when TES 5 comes out, it aint been ruined by Beth trying to please everyone that picked fault with Oblivion.

All this "download it for x amount" blah blah from these sites selling games, maybe it is the future of gaming and many other programmes etc.
Call me old fashioned but I still think you cant beat having your own silver disc with your game / software on it, whatever happens to your hard drive, you've still got the ultimate back up.

Been using Win 7 / 64 since November last year and havent had a single problem.
This is the path to to the ini file that Fonger said to delete.
C:\Users\ "your user name here" \Documents\My Games\Oblivion

Yup, got the same thing, wonder if the site going down the other day wiped out our download history.
Edit:
Sorted guys, here we go.

From the Wiki
I use it when I want multiple sets of armor for companions.
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Glitches
Duplicate Items Using Scrolls
This duplication glitch will still work even after installing the version 1.2 patch (or on the PS3 version, which comes with the version 1.2 patch installed).
1.Acquire two or more copies of the same scroll. The number of identical scrolls that you have will determine the number of duplicate items you create.
2.Open your inventory.
3.Highlight the stack of scrolls and select them once.
4.Highlight (but do not equip) an item (either single or a stack) that you wish to duplicate, and drop it.
5.Close your inventory and on the floor will be multiple copies of the item that you dropped.
Acquiring a large number of identical scrolls can be difficult. However, as long as you can find two identical scrolls to start with, you can initially use the exploit repeatedly to duplicate scrolls. Once you have a large number of duplicated scrolls, you can then start duplicating other items.
If you try to duplicate a stack of items, duplication works as detailed above for duplicating with arrows. In other words, duplication of stacks of items works best if the number of scrolls is an exact multiple of the number of to-be-duplicated items in your stack. So 33 scrolls can be used to duplicate 11 rings (creating 3 "items" on the ground, each containing a stack of 11 rings). Or 1000 scrolls can be used to duplicate 100 potions (creating 10 "items" on the ground, each with 100 potions). Using stacks can be much more effective when duplicating large numbers of items, in particular because it reduces the number of individual items on the ground, preventing game lag problems.

Yeh, just managed to download Shadowfang Keep and was going back for another read of the comments when it went down again.
Glad it didnt happen half way through the download.

Always play a marksman character, don't think I've equipped a blade in months, make sure you have sneak as one of your main skills though.
Oh, and a good bow enchant is:
35 shock damage 1 second
20 drain health 3 seconds
That takes you up to the maximum (vanilla) enchant. :thumbsup:

I'm running Oblivion from an SSD, no increase in frame rates but load times are a lot quicker.
-
Fonger, thats a rather good idea :thumbsup:
Quick explanation why for those that dont know.
When OBMM installs the omod it would overwrite the original mods files, then when you uninstall the omod it would remove all the mods files and the mod is gone.
-
Or watercooling... :thumbsup:
Agreed, but it aint cheap and the thought of a leak makes me kind of edgy to say the least.

I am running Dual gpu's.
All the fans are running through a fan speed controller and are knocked right down speedwise, 3 are shoving air in, 4 are taking it out.
Result, massive air in, massive air out, nearly silent operation, I hate noise too.

Treat your poor CPU and GPU to:
Clicky
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-065-AN&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=
That's the case I've got, not only does it keep everything nice and cool it also has plenty of room in it.
I got one too, but wish I'd gone for the 1200 had to slide the hard drive bays a quarter inch forward to get my 5970 in.
And your gonna think I'm nuts but today I just fitted another 3 fans in the side panel, one of them a 225mm lol, now its cool in there :biggrin:

Ok Illiad, I'll put your name on it, pm where you are and I'll get a price on postage :biggrin:
Edit:
Postage cost would be to much so both of these available for folk in the UK.
