exanda Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Yes, I'm a sucker and bought the official plugins (The Orrery, Thieves Den, Mehrune's Dagger and Wizard's Tower), downloaded them, installed them properly, checked them on the data file menu, and started up Oblivion. Now my PC specification is above recommended, and I'm only running the graphical texture mods that help with LOD distances etc and have tried without these aswell. I log in, expecting half a dozen messages about these certain new quests, and only recieve one, for Bothiel at the Arcane University (for the Orrery). So I spend around 15 minutes and manage to complete that quest. I then, relog just hoping that I will recieve another quest for another of the expansions, but nothing. I then travel to Anvil and engage some of the locals for rumours (which I thought was the way to trigger the Thieves Den) and find nothing, just stuff about the bloody Floating Bowl or whatever. Now I find the Dunbarrow Cave from watching a video of it on gamespy.com and find myself killing legions of skeletons, however I must say, I had no quest for this. From what I can see, the expansion is in working order apart from recieving the actual quest. I then travel to the Jerall mountains in the hope of seeing Frostcrag Spire in the distance, eventually seeing it. I travel up to it on Shadowmere to find I can't get in. I later find out that the PC will recieve the deed and key on loading. So from what I can see, this mod also works, it is only the messages upon loading that are not. I didn't actually know the loaction of the Mehrune's Dagger quest so I was limited here, but it was ticked on the data files menu. I'm not sure whether you have to have completed the main questliine for this, I know it involves Helseth in the plotline, but the character I use at the moment is head of all the major factions, and I have tried using various characters for this, also tried new games for them to work and nothing. I have the 1.1 UK patch installed aswell. I have sent a mail to the oblivion support, although I doubt I will recieve an answer soon, so I'm wondering if anyone else has had this experience before and if they could offer some help on the subject. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJD Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 I kno whats goin on if u download them all at the same time. which im asuming u did they cancel eachother out. so what u need to do is uninstall them all, then do them all one at a time. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just after 5 minutes or so the second one will come up. What's weird about Mehrunes' Razor is that you hear rumors about it. What are the Dremoras doing while they don't see you? Talking to each other, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exanda Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Just uninstalled them all, then re-installed Wizard's Tower with no other mods. Yet upon loading I have no message, which I thought was the way you got the deed and key ('from a distant relative' etc.) , am I wrong about this?

exanda Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hmm, well its a zip file, so where would I find any files that didn't make it through, nor can I find a damn readme in my Oblivion folders which isn't helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exanda Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 The files I'm downloading aren't folders, well they may be, but in that case I don't have the right program to unzip them into any folder. Can't seem to find any folders within the Oblivion/Data bit containing the expansion stuff apart from a DLCFrostcrag.bsa file and the Frostcrag ESP. So I guess i'll be looking for a program that can read the bsa. file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
