Awesome. Thanks Shadowfen for the quick and helpful suggestion. :D For those who come after, I'll detail the rest of the steps I took: I created and changed a shortcut as above, and I was getting the error "couldn't inject dll" when I tried to run it. Searching for that error message on-line, I found the source code: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:AV_D61pMGSQJ:www.qwerty-games.com/viewvc/OblivionReborn/obse/loader/main.cpp%3Frevision%3D2%26view%3Dmarkup+obse+loader+%22couldn%27t+inject+dll%22+editor&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca which after updating my OBSE (from 17 to 18), and opening the obse_readme.txt, suggested I run it in a command window, just typing in obse_loader.exe -editor in the Oblivion directory. Doing this, I got the error: CreateRemoteThread failed (5), which suggested it was something wrong with multithreading, or perhaps a multi-processor issue. (I had previously fixed with System Shock 2 by only having it run on one CPU, but it crashed too soon for that to work here.) So, I ran it in Windows 95 compatibility mode, and I was able to run the editor with OBSE enabled and was able to save the scripts. Once I get out of the sewers, I'll let you guys know how the res of the modding goes. Thanks! -Nayrbnayrb :D
