I can figure out what to do, but I nice starting point is knowing where Oblivion checks for .ini files, if at all. 3 major locations that I would suspect but haven't worked: /Oblivion, /Oblivion/Data, and /documents/my games/oblivion Also, if the mods are a must to know, then it's the Stealth Overhaul http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/6359/? and the HUD Status Bars UI http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/34905/? Which require a seperate .ini script to be interpreted by the game. So, 1) either there isn't a location where it will check for .ini files, 2) there is location where the .ini file will be read, or 3) I have to go through some other process in order for the scripts to be read. @bben46, thanks for acknowledging my question anyways, even if you don't have a clear cut answer.
