Can you start Oblivion from the Nehrim Launcher or Vice Versa?

[ZeroCore]

As the title says, I'm wondering if it's possible at all to start Oblivion from the Nehrim Launcher, or the other way around (start Nehrim from the Oblivion launcher).

 

I tried before, but it kept saying that the main files weren't loaded and thus it aborted the load with an error message (yes, the main files WERE activated--as in, they had a check mark next to their names in the file load screen--but still it told me that the files had not been loaded).

 

I'm wondering if it's possible to load both Nehrim's files and Oblivion's master files at the same time.

 

Also, I had an odd idea for a sort of mod that more or less depends on being able to load Oblivion's master files and Nehrim's master files at the same time; a sort of interdimensional travel mod which would allow your Nehrim character to visit Tamriel, or the inverse; your Oblivion character to visit Nehrim.

 

I have no idea if that's possible at this point. If anyone could provide help, I'd appreciate it.

The problem with trying to combine Oblivion and Nehrim is that there are numerous gameplay differences between them, most notably their leveling systems. That I know of, the closest thing you could do to "interdimensional travel" would be to activate the Oblivion races in Nehrim and use Wrye Bash to paste an Oblivion character onto a Nehrim save file, or vice versa. This, of course, would not transfer your inventory, spell list or quest progress, just your name, race, appearance and stats. Porting Nehrim's assets to Oblivion is forbidden in the EULA, if I recall correctly; assuming that applies to races as well, that means only characters of Oblivion races would be able to travel between the two games.

That's irrelevant; gameplay style, in this case, doesn't matter. Whether the gameplay would interact well, or be entertaining, at this point doesn't matter at all.

 

All I'm trying to figure out is if it's possible to load the Oblivion master files and the Nehrim master files at the same time. If there are code inconsistencies, I could always write a patch (that would take a long time, but not be impossible provided that both sets of master files can be loaded at the same time).

 

At this point, this concept is less for the sake of making an entertaining, playable mod and more for the sake of seeing if it's possible to load these master files at the same time.

In theory, it might be possible with the help of TES4Gecko. I can promise it won't be as simple as cut-and-paste.
