Your Skyrim game doesn't have any sound effects? This fix is for you. The reason it does that is simple but the explanation not much so. Most likely, you have Skyrim installed outside of your main drive or perhaps even on an external HDD. Many games including AC: Unity and AC: Origins simply cannot load sound files stored outside of the main drive. The fix is simple, we're gonna move the sound files to the main drive and create a symbolic link. *1. First of download and install Link Shell Extension which can be found here http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html *2. Navigate to your Skyrm/Data folder and look for a file named Skyrim - Sounds.bsa. Copy this file and paste it somewhere on your main drive. *3. Delete Skyrim - Sounds.bsa from the Data folder *4. Go back to where you copied Skyrim - Sounds.bsa on your main drive. Right click on it and you should see an option that says "Pink Link Source". Click that. *5. Go back to your Skyrim/Data folder. Right click anywhere and choose "Drop As" and then "Symbolic Link" You will see your sounds file with a shortcut symbol. You know it works when you do. Et voila! Your issue should be fixed. What we did is very simple. We kept most of the game files in the same location but moved the sound files to the main drive where Skyrim likes them to be. We then created a link so your Skyrim game can go and get these files in the main drive. This works for both the standard and Special Edition.

I'm seriously wondering. Better Cities as a patch for Open Cities Reborn but even with it it doesn't work, Already done.

Howdy, long time I haven't posted here. I'm experiencing an issue with Open Cities Reborn and Better Cities. Well, it seems to be a compatibility issue. If I activate them separately, they work but together, the game freezes as soon as I push Enter/Start. Here is my load order.

When in the Launcher go in Data Files and make sure all needed content is checked. Also I assume you used to mod Oblivion before. Remember that if you modded manually and did not uninstall the mod afterwards, uninstalling through Steam will leave the mods in the Oblivion/Data folder. As a result if you reinstall, Steam will look for the same folder and readd the missing files to make Oblivion work. The fresh install will still have mods in its data folder which might prevent Oblivion from working properly. If you are 100% sure you have no mods at all, simply Verify the Integrity of the game cache on Steam. Just rick click on the game and select "Properties" and in the "Local Files" tab you'll see the option "Verify The Integrity of Game Cache" This will reacquire whatever files that you are missing.

How do you start it via script extender? OBSE is now attached to the launcher in the more recent version. In the older versions OBSE was a separate file that you could launch on its own. Are you using an older version perhaps?

Are you using a controller? Because you gotta tweak some things in the ini files for it to work properly. Look in the Oblivion.ini for a parameter called bUse Joystick=1 and set it to bUse Joystick=0.

So nothing from anyone yet?

Howdy, long time I haven't posted here. I'm experiencing an issue with Open Cities Reborn and Better Cities. Well, it seems to be Better Cities alone actually. As soon as I activate it my game freezes. I chose "Open Cities" in the installer to make sure they'd be compatible but Better Cities just won't load in my game. I get to the startup screen, press enter then boom, freezing. Here is my load order.

If it gives you any consolation, I don't remember a time when I could load saved games from within the game. Just too many mods: somewhere over 250, if you count my merged groups. This isn't something you're going to be able to change, unfortunately, unless you use fewer mods. And that's...unthinkable. ;) Thing is, I used to play just fine with as many mods until I went into Castle Leyawiin. For some reason there, I tried saving and reloading and it started crashing whenever I would do that in-game.

That's the thing, when I exit to the main menu, it does work, so my save files aren't corrupted. It also started doing this recently, way after I had all my mods installed.

Update: Works like a charm, I can quit with no crash but I still can't load my saves when I'm in game.

I'll try that. Don't think it'll fix the entirety of my problem but half of it will likely be gone. My main problem is that I can save just fine and load when I'm outside the game but whenever I'm in the game, loading saves causes the game to crash.

Hey guys, I'm having a bit of a problem out there. My game was working fine until recently. I installed Natural Environments, and for some reason, whenever I exit, Oblivion would almost always crash, it didn't bother me all that much because it wasn't that much of an issue. But 2 days ago, it got worse. I was doing Ahdarji's heirloom and things took a turn for the worst. I saved and whenever I tried to load my save IN-GAME, Oblivion would crash. The save files aren't corrupted, I can load them whenever I boot Oblivion but whenever I'm in the game and try to load them, it crashes. Any advice? Here is my list of mods and load order.

Hey everybody. I have Oscuro's Overhaul installed and I selected the option of making abilities level up two times slower. I installed a few mods on top of it, and it seems they caused the weapon and armor degradation rate to go back to their vanilla level. I was wondering if there was a way to make them degrade slower(like 25% the speed of vanilla Oblivion). Thank you.

Yeah it persists. Why would it stop? Edit: I deleted the whole _male folder and it stopped. Won't the deletion of that folder cause a lot of problems?

Alright, done, what should I do next?

Alright, so many times I install animation mods and it seems next to impossible for me to get rid of them. My most recent problem comes from the Seductive Idle mod. I installed it because I always thought the way females walked looked silly. Problem is, the male characters also started walking that way. I tried uninstalling the mod and deleting its file but it wouldn't work. I even uninstalled the game and it's still there. How do I get rid of it? Some help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I looked around everywhere and couldn't find a solution. Whenever I uninstall that mod with Oblivion Mod Manager, I end up with female characters having no bodies at all, a black face and purple hands. All I can do to fix this is reinstalling the very same mod. I use the latest version of that mod. I tried manually deleting the stuff it added but it made no difference. How do I get back the default female bodies? Edit: I also got Beautiful People installed and all the DLC's.

There is a mod called Better Beasts mod for the Khajiit and Argonians I believe. It was done by Slof I think. There's also the beautiful people mod which lets you choose a good few different races and some of the humanoid ones look much better than the default ones.

Thanks for your replies guys, works like a charm. Quite a nice mod, should have gotten it sooner.

Hey guys, I wanted to ask something. I want to install OOO but I've made a little mistake. I downloaded the stand alone exe(OOO 1.3 exe) fil thinking it was just a new thing that installed the mod more easily for the inexperienced modders, turns out I was wrong. I extracted the files and copied them in my data folder directory. I usually use Mod Manager and I happen to have the archive version of the latest OOO(OOO 1.33 Complete). If I try installing it using Mod Manager, won't it cause some kind of conflict because I already extracted the exe files in my data folder directory? Thank you. Oopsie, wrong sub forum. Can a mod move this to troubleshooting please? Thanks.

I got a problem with this mod too. I can play the game just fine, the problem is, whenever I try to load a game when I'm in game, Oblivion crashes. Whenever I try to quit the game or even go to ''Main Menu'' the game crashes too. I know Better Cities caused this as I tested the other mods I had before installing it. The other mods I have are Beautiful People(most recent version), QarlTP3, HGEC Body 1.21 and Oblivion XP. Anyone knows where the problem might be?
