Really odd problem

[Grimmjow0006]

When I load or start a new game after getting into the game it goes blue. I can't see anything but I can move but my vision is blue if I'm outside and black or dark dark brown if I'm inside. I of course can't do anything while the vision is all blue. If you can tell me which of my mods caused this it would be helpful because I have no idea which would cause this.

Here's a video of it happening

http://www.xfire.com/video/18967b/

[wswedin]

My theory (I may be completely off)

 

Darker nights

Natural_Weather_Darker nights (or natural weather itself)

Light Spell White_Dimmer (I like that one personally doesn't bug on me though)

_darker_dungeons_

Let there be darkness

 

Any Light-affecting mod, especially new ones. (I may have not listed all your mods that can do it)

[Grimmjow0006]

No idea why but I decided to come back to see if anything cool happened. I saw Midas had an update and thought hey I'll update for the hell of it. Then I tried it out. No blue screen. It worked for five minutes then I went to another game I was playing because I didn't think it would work.

 

EDIT:I just got back from playing the other game and wanted to play Oblivion. But the problem came back. Nothing changed too except the break time period. About a month compared to a couple hours. Not sure why that matters though. Wait I think it changed the video options though. I put the res higher, went to HDR, and a few other things. Maybe those are it.

[bben46]

This looks a lot like the Nvidia Black screen problem. If you have an Nvidia board be sure you are using the latest drivers.

 

Any mod that reduces the fog to zero in an interior space can cause it.

 

Here is one 'fix' that sometimes works. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13632

 

And another: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13322

 

If it only happens in specific places, I have had success by disabling both HDR and Bloom lighting to get passed that place, then reneabling after wards.

[Grimmjow0006]

Thanks but I have a ATi card. Also it's not specific places it's all places.

 

EDIT:Got back from school and I tried playing Oblivion it worked. I changed the options back to whatever my computer can supposedly handle. It's weird. I'm going to have to do some experimenting to see what causes the problem exactly.

 

I found the problem. It's something with HDR. I turned on all the mods I had turned off that could have been the cause of it with bloom on. Then I turned up my resolution. Then my graphics settings. Then went to HDR and it didn't work. Then I turned it to bloom and it works. Anyone have an idea why HDR is doing this? Never did it before.

[XJDHDR]

That's the first time I've heard of HDR problems on an ATI card. Unfortunately, I can't say why HDR causes problems. I personally just stick with Bloom lighting.
