For the nth time, i'm reinstalling Oblivion (french version) in order to optimize everything, get rid of obsolete, unneccessary or conflictuous mods. So, as i'm a Fran/OOO/MMM fan, i use FCOM and thus, i refer to this page to try to have an as smooth as possible installation : http://devnull.sweetdanger.net/fcominstall.html Of course, my Oblivion is patched up-to-date, as well as all my drivers on my computer (Win XP SP3) Here's my load order : I've noticed that, now that i install Fran/OOO/MMM/FCOM, I don't have any voice playing anymore. The other sounds and music are fine, but no voice. When i just install Oblivions + Knights + SI, everything works fine, but not anymore as soon as i install the overhauls combo... I had a similar problem caused by Beautiful People because it was reverting the races' names to the default english ones, but i had found a way to correct this. But not this time, even when i go to the TESCS, i don't find any changed race name... Does anybody know why and how to fix it? Thanks in advance !

well, no, not for plugins to work, but depending on your computer, you might have to go look into the oblivion's ini to make things smoother. You can look there : http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Ini_Settings Or there : http://www.cyrodiil.net/html/oblivionini.html Or even there : http://www.tweakguides.com/Oblivion_1.html for some useful hints.

wrye bash is something like OBMM. You can adjust your load order with it, but more, he can help you to make mods work together in a more smooth way, in avoiding or warning you about certain possible conflicts. It's not very easy to use at first, but frankly, i couldn't play Oblivion without it anymore ! You can find it on TESNexus very easily, but i recommend you to read carfeully to readme and the instructions, it will avoid you many headaches.

I recommend you also to grab Wrye Bash. If you're careful, you can use both OBMM and Wrye Bash and get wonderful results !

THAT is definitely a very useful feature ! Now it will be far easier for us mod users to see what is main and what is optional ! Thanks for the continuous improvements you make to this already great website !
