Haxial Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29087 The mod: Return of the Shadows - Chapter 1 v.1-1 will not start for me. I know the mod is supposed to take some time before it starts (and that it is random), but it has been quite a long time and it still hasn't started yet. I am running the most current version of Oblivion on steam and I do have OBSE. The only thing I could think of that would possibly cause it to not start, would be the fact that when I started running this mod I didn't know that it required me to be running OBSE in order for it to work. After running the mod and saving it with the mod 'on' I found out I need to be running OBSE so i downloaded it and installed the .dll files in the correct directories. I have been following the main quest while I've been waiting for this quest to start. I hope it starts soon, but with every hour it doesn't grow more and more reluctant. I truly hope that I won't have to start over, but if I have to, so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchmo Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 If you added OBSE later, i would advise to make a clean save and then use RoS anew. not sure if RoS does check for the presence of OBSE directly, or if OBSE is only needed for some functions. but using a clean save would be best if you think that the quest does not start. best make some backups of you current save. start Oblivion without the RoS esp active, load your save, save it in a different slot and exit Oblivion.activate RoS again and start Oblivion anew, load your prior saved game. This should reset everything from RoS to the start values from the mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
