Help installing Unnessecary Violence

[svrptw]

Hey everyone, I bought Oblivion GOTY Edition Deluxe off Steam a couple weeks ago, and just lately have gotten into using mods. I dl OOO, some enhanced terrain texture one, and some minor stuff, then decided to try downloading UV.

 

At first I thought that the compatibility patch for OOO was all I needed, and so downloaded and installed it. Then I realized that I needed the main file too (duh), along with the Unofficial patches, OBSE, Nifscript, and Pluggy, so I downloaded and installed, them, then dl UV.

 

I unpacked it all, updated the ini, checked the .esp and .esm, and then started Oblivion... and nothing new happened.

 

I don't know what I did wrong. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thanks.

Make sure you're running the game from 'obse_loader.exe' otherwise any mods that use OBSE will not work.

UV can be a pain to get working sometimes, just make the .esp load last, re-check to make sure other people haven't found incompatibilities in the comments etc.

I don't think that I have any incompatibilities, since there are no CTDs or missing meshes and textures or anything like that.

 

I think it might be because I don't use the obse_loader.exe, but I don't know because I read the readme and it appeared that you didn't need to use that .exe with the Steam version of Oblivion. I actually read it over a couple times because it seemed strange that it would work like that.

 

I'll try using the .exe then. :thanks:

You have to load Oblivion from OBSE for the scripting functions to work.

Well, I got it to work, but without the obse_loader.exe. Turned out I had placed some of the .dlls that came with Pluggy and OBSE in the wrong places, and simply had to replace them.

 

Thanks for replying :smile:
