OBLIVION RELOADED COMBINED (ORC) and WIN 10

[jwoltz]

Okay...one last time...I'm taking the advice of several gamers who claim Oblivion Reloaded Combined is the way to go. I (finally) got my game to work (minus OR) on Win10 on my new computer. HOWEVER, BEFORE I go horsing around with ORC, I would like to know if anyone is having any...ANY issues with conflicts on Win10. I cannot afford to foul up this game (again) as it has only taken me uninstalling-reinstalling this game 4 times! Any SINCERE and HELPFUL hints SPECIFICALLY on this topic would be greatly appreciated! Oh, how I miss my Win7! A very big THANK YOU in advance.

 

EDIT: PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!! I abandoned any use of Enhanced Camera and returned to again using OR 6. which in the past worked brilliantly. I came to understand that Win10 has issues with video rendering on older games, particularly Direct X regardless of which graphic card you may be using. I discovered that it wasn't OR 6.5 as a whole but one particular .ini setting which was causing the conflict. By turning off the changing of the opening titles and logo feature, any video presets were also turned off thus eliminating the weird graphic display issue which followed. As a result, I now have a fully restored Oblivion game. As a side note, System 32 bit processing is by default turned off (false) in Win10. By going into the Application Pools settings and turning it on (True), you gain full funtionality with older 32 bit games like Oblivion. As such, you don't have to play under any Compatibility Settings such as WinXP. HUZZAH!

Congratulation! You really worked hard on this. But with flow of time such similar problems running old games will only worse. Maybe someone will take pity on us and prepare for example Virtual Box with drivers accelerating both DirectX and OpenGL which will give incerased VRAM like 1-2 GB.

One can only hope, RomanR! Thank you for all your help.
