Trouble with Streamline first, now a general problem

[AshPoet]

Hey guys, just reinstalled Oblivion (first playthrough in Vilverin currently) and after installing a couple of mods via NMM and OMM, my installation is already in a pretty bad shape.

 

So I got Streamline 3.1 after my game started to crash every 30 minutes or so. With Streamline 3.1+patch installed, it crashes in 30 seconds. (Currently in the first Ayleid dungeon across the sewers) I did not even alter the sl.ini that much, I just changed the interval that streamsave is performed. I have the Crash Prevention System for OBSE installed, but no perfomance-enhancing mods. Running on Windows 8, x64, 8GB Ram, Intel i7.

I do NOT have the English version of the game though, which is a huge pain in the *** anyways, but should not lead to my game dying after 30 seconds (UOP and OOO are translated versions). 30 seconds is not a figure of speech here, it literally dies within <1 min without fail. Load order looks a bit weird to me, but I did run BOSS with it. I deactivated the Streamline.esp to atleast enjoy 30 minutes of gameplay, but it crashes even faster now.

EDIT: Now I have around 10 playable seconds before CTD occurs (when closing in on a skeleton archer), whether I have streamline.esp active or not. Looks my installation is pretty much finished

Streamline was never completed - the author just disappeared from all forums. It has several known bugs that were never addressed.

It was never intended as something to be used on any except low end computers. If your system runs at anything like a decent fps without streamline ( anything over about 25 fps) just don't use it. If all you are using it for is the streamsave I believe there other mods that do that without the other stuff.

 

Have you tried using LOOT in place of BOSS?

A BOSS log might help - I see at least 2 mods that probably aren't needed as they are included in the unofficial patch - KT Custom Race fix & Citadel door fix. I also see 2 male body replacers and deadly reflex is known to not play well with some other script heavy mods.

A fast ctd as the your one is due to a script problem or incompatibility between mods. Disable mods and activate them in steps to find the problem.

Thank you for your tips! Unfortunately, the suggestions did not really help to solve my problem, so I opted for a reinstallation. After unistalling the game, I cleared the registry with CCleaner and deleted the original Oblivion folder. After that, I installed the game to a new directory C:/Games/Oblivion. I also installed Shivering Isles and downloaded the official Shivering Isles Patch. I wanted to do a test run, but the game crashes now midway through the intro (with the Bethesda logo). I thought that installing the translated UOP & USIP might be of help, but that didn't do it either. Just to be super safe, I took a look at the load order but that was no problem either.

 

What could possibly have gone wrong with my reinstall?

 

 

EDIT: Nevermind, I missed the Oblivion.ini file -.- The game did not run properly because it was expecting Darnified UI resources.
