Crashes after loading new areas AND not after changing video settings


Recommended Posts

My Oblivion crashes after loading new areas. I finished the Uriel Septim death and enter the sewer and it crashes. Tried it a grand total of maybe 30 times by now. Also I cannot change the video settings in any way without the return button crashing the game. My computer runs the game fine, smoothly, on medium graphics up until I have to enter the sewer, which is when it crashes. Load screen still appears, loads all the way, and then crashes.

 

General specs.

Intel Core Duo 2.33 ghz

4 gb ram ddr3

no graphics card

intel expresss chipset g33

NO hardware t&l

 

 

Any ideas as to what the problem is? I figure its not a graphics problem or I wouldn't be able to play the game at all, but then again, I could be wrong.

All advice is welcome. Thanks!

when you say "no graphics card" do you mean you have shared graphics?

oblivion is a very resource intense game, even unmodded. a dedicated card is a must..

do you have any mods loaded?

the first dungeon where you escape the prison is low intensity in terms of graphics, then when you leave the sewer, bam the whole tamriel world hs to load.

I had the exact same problem years ago with a laptop, ok with morrowind, oblivion owned it inside 5 minutes....

Hi there.

 

@ x42oblazeitf@&#!tx : i 'don't think so the Oblivion's engine is not like the Morrowind 's engine , only a few cells are loaded . and not the whole Tamriel, but you need a true graphic card with 512 Mega minimum ... ( a "old " GT8800/9800 is still ok to run this game).

 

You can try a few mods like this one ( it works for Oblivion too) :

 

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/12801 .... and this

 

http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/35510 ... but without a real graphic card , i am sceptic ...

 

Welle one more thing : at this time ( 05 hour in Bussels) you cannot dowload from the Nexus server ... all files are gone "somewherere " ... ;°) , take a look at this link for more indications :

Bye , and sorry for my English , this is not one of my native languages.

 

 

PS : to use the " Optimizer Texture" you need to extact all the files from the BSA files first ... there is a BSA extractor in the utilities section on Nexus ( Oblivion, Fallout3 or Skyrim ... the last works for these games).

 

PPS , the skyrim section is Ok to dowload, but not the Oblivion section at this moment ( 05.45 AM in Brussels) ...
