No Mods will work

I can't get any of my mods to work in the game, but I can load them all and get them to work etc. in the CS. I recently started using a no-dvd crack because I "lost" (long story..) my Oblivion dvd. Could this have something to do with it? thanks in advance

the no-cd cracks and other such software are generally flawed. Most are incomplete, have viruses or are re-written in a different way. Stay away from such software. I would reccomend buying the game used via ebay, then get a program called power iso. It will make a burn of the game completely. You can then archive your original disk and play from your copy. I use this method for personal use only and in no way condone digital piracy. People worked hard to make the game function (even as little as it does). Other people had to invest into the project. All parties involved deserve their fair compensation.

 

I'm not sure if you are referring to a pirated copy or not, but if you are you should remove your post quickly (or edit it).

 

In the future, you don't need the no dvd crack. Ive found my oblivion runs faster and longer on my computer when loaded from my hard drive into a virtual drive with power iso. Then you don't have to worry about the illegal stuff messing you up (legally or virulently).

well I am running the original game because I did buy it. First on Xbox, then on computer for mods. I just replaced the oblivion.exe for a no-dvd cracked version and im not sure if that would have anything to do with it or not.

Theuseless already said it probably does. It's a bad idea in any case. Go back to the original .exe and (if you haven't already) download the appropriate latest official patch. If you can't "find" your original DVD then you'll have to buy or borrow a new one. Or buy a copy off Steam.

The no-cd cracks generally work exactly the same way as the pirated versions. No Obi ESM or an altered one = No Mods, as Oblivion ESM is a requirement for every mod out there. They all gotta start somewhere, and thats where they start.

Forget steam and Ebay though. Go to your local second hand game shop. Gamestation in the UK have Oblivion for like £6 so no 2 year download (gotta love Steams DL servers. :| Not. ) and no chance of getting a dodgy disk. And if you do they'll swap it for you if you take it back within a couple of days.
