Oops, :P . Got my facts mixed up.... post 2 i totally agree with... oh, and +1 on mounted combat... Also: - Get rid of the horrible zoom interface when you are talking to someone. - IF (hopefully not) the game crashes a lot, being able to set an autosave-auto timer, so you don't lose your valuable play. - Make the landscape change to seasons; say if it were winter, lots more snow, less sun, and trees lose their leaves (in the months leading up to winter) bitter winds that can take HP if you are too unexposed to the weather. If it's summer make some of the snow melt, and make a possibility of slipping on the snow-melt and hurting yourself. - I'm sure it's already here but, no fast travel. You must pay for transport like in Morrowind. - Varied voice actors (very unlikely due to so late in dev :verymad: )

I would like to see: - The other provinces of Cyrodiil to come out as expansion packs. (I really want this one :thumbsup: ) - Skyrim to actually be big.... or at least bigger than Tamriel. - I know this is already on the list, but more diverse dungeons. Maybe some more quest dungeons. And please don't have only four types of dungeons: (Alyeid ruins, Forts, Caves and Sewers). - Get rid of the levelling system.. or at least make the game more random and varied. And please make bosses hard... The only reason I play Oblivon anymore is with FCOM... - More quests. - Waaaaay more weapons and armor. - Make magic more varied, so you don't have to cast flare 10 times to kill something. - Multi-path storyline, so you can choose to be good or evil... - More voice actors... - Maybe some creatures from very popular mods to be added, like Frost Titan from OOO... Thats all I can Really think of. When you get back, tell us of your experiences. (maybe sneak in a photo?) Thanks, Eltath

Hello Nexus, I'm back in Technincal support again :down: . Anyhoo, I've recently got a very stable install of FCOM, with a perfect Bashed patch, and my favourite mods to go with it. But today I installed a few mods such as MenuQue, Qarl and Timeslips depth of field, and Realistic encumbrance. When I Rebuilt my Patch, and launched oblivion, I noticed that the ground texture was not quite right, as you can see here, here and here. So I thought, this is weird, so I travelled to Bruma, still no luck. Then off the Cheydinhal, also messed up. So what do you guys recommond to do to fix this problem. I really, really do not want to reinstall for the seventh time in two months....So any help what so ever, would be greatly appreciated. Load Order (in order) .ini And Renderer info (just in case) Thanks, Eltath

Hey guys, I'm back at this forum... I've finally got a working install, but I can't seem to change my Graphic Settings (via Options/Video) I've got a video of my problems, http://tiny.cc/aloyn Ini: So what do you guys think about this problem?? Thanks

I run Oblivion.exe as administrator. I've installed the game to My documents/Games. And All my Utilities are run as administrator.... So what do you think

Also, Now That I've tested after about an hour, Oblivion won't even startup when I run it, It just CDT's as soon as I open it.... I'm just hoping I won't have to re-install for the fifth time in three weeks :verymad:

Well, I'm back again and this time I have no clue on what's going on.... To start off, After ages and ages (maybe 15 hours) I Finally got FCOM to work, no problems. I followed what everyone said about testing after I install each mod, so I did. And finally yesterday, I went to install Streamline the game worked without a hitch. Then I installed weOCP's (oblivion Crash Preventative System) worked perfectly. Then I installed Alive Arena. I didn't test, then I went to have some sleep. Today when I installed watch you sleep. There were problems. I opened up Oblivion (via OBSE) Dark UI had screwed up; it wasn't taking up the full screen, so I thought "I must fix that," But first I wanted to create a new character, so I pressed new on the menu, It said "Do you want to create a new game?" I said yes....Then as soon as I clicked yes, I could see my normal windows 7 mouse; only for a second, then I got a CTD :wallbash: . So then I Opened up OBMM, Re-Installed DarkUI and Oblivion XP. I tested the game again, no DarkUI problems, but when I went to load a game it CTDed with the Mouse thing again. So I thought Something is wrong with my .ini, so I backed it up, then deleted it (from my docs). I ran Oblivion through the launcher to make a new .ini. So then I had to re-install DarkUI and Oblivion XP again. After that I changed my Graphic settings to what I want, Closed and ran oblivion again. Chose to make a new save.... CTD :verymad: I did this a couple of times, still got a CTD. So then I un-installed all of the mods I installed since today and the last part of yesterday. I chose to load a savegame this time. CTD. I chose to make a new game. CTD. Made a new .ini. CTD. Rebuilt my Bashed Patch. CTD. So finally, quite frustrated I came here. What is the problem?? Load order ahead: And with everything active: So what is the problem? If you want my ini Any Ideas on what Is going on?? Thanks Eltath

Thanks for all the info timestamp, this time, I swear I will properly test after every mod is installed..... Oh and one last thing, when I run boss, and for example it says for Marts {{BASH:Actors.AIData,Actors.AIPackages,Actors.Spells,Actors.Stats,Delev,Factions,Graphics,Invent,Names,Relations,Relev,Scripts,Stats}}, should I rebuild my patch with all of those selected? Thanks sooo much for all of your help, Eltath

Good news everyone.... IT WORKS!!! :woot: :woot: All I had to do was check my bashed patch, because I didn't install most of the DLC (Frostcrag and VileLair) I accidently selected Harvest Flora Frostcrag in my patch, and that screwed everything up....But now it works now. Should I risk installing DLC and any other mods (like All Natural, Better Cities, Unique Landscapes, Oblivion XP levelling, Streamline, etc)? Thanks for all your patience. Sorry i got a bit angry at times, but it paid off...... Thanks sooo much

Well this is my current report, I went to start with a clean install yet again :verymad: . This is what I did: 1. I uninstalled Oblivion through setup.exe (located on the disk). 2. I uninstalled all of my DLC and utilites through Add or Remove Programs. 3. Next, I Deleted my Oblivion folder (9.71gb!!!), and my saves folder. 4. Then I rebooted my computer to delete tempory files. 5. I re-installed Oblivion to: My documents/Oblivion (because I'm a Windows 7 user) 6. After installing Oblivion, I Installed The Shivering Isles (so I could use the latest official Patch) 7. I installed the latest official Oblivion patch, the I Rebooted my computer. 8. After rebooting, I installed my Utilites (OBMM, Wrye Bash, BOSS and TES Construction Set) 9. Then I installed Graphic Patches (i.e: Qarls, Bomret's etc....) 10. Then I ran Archive Invadilation, to make sure the packs would work. 13. I installed the Oblivion RAM booster Patch to make the game run more smoothly. 12. Then I did my first test of the game, works perfectly, no problems here..... 13. Then I installed the Unofficial Oblivion Patch. 14. After that I installed OOO. 15. After OOO was installed, I used BOSS to sort my load order. 16. Then I tested it. It works perfectly, Right whats next? 17. I made a FCOM_MMM.bsa and copied the esm and esp from MMM 37b3 release. 18. It works perfectly. 19. Warcry is up next...... 20. Installed and works fine 21. Frans is next... 22. Installed Works fine 23. Made Ufcom Omod, 24. Installed 25. Bashed Patch: I selected: Merge Patches, Import Cells, Import Graphics, Import Scripts..... It changed 1365 records.... And, three hours later. It still doesn't work!!! I have no Idea what I'm doing wrong or what can fix it, but If you have any Idea on how to fix this, please reply and give me your thoughts....

So, After hours of re-installing and installing FCOM, it still CRASHES (AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!) :wallbash: :verymad: Well, I did as you all said. Completely clean install (except for defrag (it would have taken about 10 hours otherwise!)) and installed all the mods separately. I tested OOO but I didn't test Frans, Warcry or Marts. Then installed FCOM completely, built a bashed patch, ran the launcher through OBSE, and it crashes to CTD as soon as I open the game. So what do you guys think the problem be? Or should I send all my information toward Dev_akm?

Sorry about my last un-readable post :wacko: . Anyways, I used Bben's revert to Vanilla post to, well, revert to vanilla. And the news is bad. I reverted to Vanilla Oblivion to test to see if that worked, I went to launch Oblivion through the default .exe (OblivionLauncher.exe) well it got passed the Bethesda Softworks Movie-ette, then it crashed. So I unchecked everything, still crashed :wallbash: ! So Just to see if you can decipher the Error report: But I think I may well have to re-install oblivion AGAIN :blink: . There goes an hour of my life.... Anyways, if you think there are anyways to save this install of oblivion... (but even I doubt it....) please reply with your hearts content.. Oh, and I think I didn't tell you what OS I've got, Well I've got Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. And I have installed Oblivion to, My documents\ My Games\ Oblivion - Game.. So tell me what you think. Thanks sooo much

Ok Thanks for your replies. Well I did what you guys said, All of the Mods work fine on their own, but as soon as I activate FCOM and launch Oblivion it just CTD's as soon as I open it up :huh: .Then I decided to just use FCOM with OOO and Frans. Still CTD's when I open up oblivion (through OBSE) So, does anyone have any Idea of what the problem could be? Thanks again, Eltath.

Hello Forums, I've got a critical problem with my oblivion. I wanted to download FCOM. It recommends to start with a new install so I re-installed Oblivion, nothing wrong here.. Then I installed FCOM after some thumb twiddling. Later I installed the rest of my must have mods. And when I went to launch Oblivion (via OBSE) it just crashes and goes straight to the desktop... I'll give you the Following (in order too!) Mod list, Graphic Enhancers, Utilities, BSA list, Ini and my Computer Specs Mod List: Graphic Enhancers: Utilities: BSA List: ini: Computer Specs: Well, If you bothered to go through all of that, I thank you and await your reply. While I wait I'll go Play some Civilization V!

thanks for more of these great ideas.....

Thanks for the awesome reply TriForce1, Some Awesome mods there! So does anyone else have anymore..?

Hello everyone!, I recently re-installed Oblivion, and I am looking for some good mods to maximise my time with the game. So what are your favourite mods? (no Adult ones please) Or would you prefer to give your full mod list. Fire away..... Eltath

Hey, It works! I did what you said, and It worked! Thx soo much Rilez

Hey, I did what you said, but still no luck. I can give you an excat copy of my ini if you want it: I'll also tell you my system (just in case!) So is there anything wrong, Or could my GFX card just not be compatable with Oblivion?? Thanks Again...

Thank you sooo much, I'll try it a bit later and see if it works.... I will post if it does or doesn't.. Eltath

Welcome to the Nexus' Forums, Cooleao352! I totally Agree with BFG99, The CS is a very complex tool. (i've been using it for about two years, and only two days ago i found the most important funtion to me: Snap to Grid! :wallbash: ) Well to make cities and Villages, you will need the CS (construction set) Download link: here, If you have Shivering Isles, Download the Construction set: Here. Once you have installed that, go to this link. That website has wonderful tutorials, and Has a getting started section which would be perfect for you.... Also, If you want to make your own weapons and armor click on these links: Modelling Section, and texturing section. Have fun and good luck. It will take you quite some time to get used to all of the functions... Eltath

Totally the same here, I'm still in cyrodiil doing quests and stuff, And i haven't started the shivering Isles yet and 30 hours have past

Umm, I'll give you my full mod list In order: Red Means Definate Weather Mod, Blue Means; I don't really know.... Also, Yesterday I got A new Graphics Card: ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU (1gb, DDR5) And the day before I wasn't having any problems with fog (as I know of).... Anyways, Thanks

Hello everyone, I'm currently making a mod which requires fog fx (it's in a dungeon) And when I test the mod, there is no fog fx?? I've gone into other dungeons which i know have Fog FX in them (for example Vilverin (level 3) And, There's no fog fx there either.. So help would be appriciated... Eltath

Hey Tesnexus, Got A really good idea for a mod, and I've started to make a dungeon for it but I need some landscapers scripters and quest makers to help me.... I'll give you a run down: You find a mysterious portal (probably near the sea to the south of leyawiin) And being the smart, save the world kinda guy (or girl), you enter it. When you arrive, your on a high hill looking over an epic aleyied dungeon (kinda like this (thanks to the team if nehrim for that)), just waiting for you to explore. On the way down the hill you find alot of dead adventures, corpses etc. (who died trying what your doing now) When you enter the Dungeon, its full of undead, Lots of traps, pits, loot and fun. After about; I think 6-8 levels :blink: you get to the boss level, which is full of hard challenges; i.e skeletons in groups of 3-4. Once you finally get to the last chamber there is a man (or woman) who has the lich shader effect, wearing a unique armor (or armour), which adds a trait of damage personallity 100, adds a dread zombie shader effect on you, and gives you all the negative and positive effects of the undead. (i.e dread zombie has a water breathing effect, but also has a weakness to fire effect etc.) When you go to kill him/her, about 3-5 undead come at you and try to kill you, as well as the boss person...... So what do you think. Its pretty basic, but I think if it's pulled off right, it will be a very fun mod to download and play. So, I need some people to make the land, scripts and possibly a quest. Also a good dungeon maker to help out with alot of levels.... Thanks for reading, Eltath
