Sporkfist Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Hi there I've run into a gamebreaking problem and I'd appreciate it if anyone could help.My Oblivion persists to crash whenever I try to cast a spell, which is a little upsetting because I'm a Breton Battlemage and all. I'm running the mods Deadly Reflex 5 and Natural Weather/Water/Habitat, and while the problem seemed to go away when I started up a new game in vanilla, I have no particular taste for vanilla. (Plus I'd already made some real progress with my character finished the Dark Brotherhood missions, joined the Thieves Guild.)So I did some troubleshooting and apparently this is a fairly widespread issue, it has something to do with audio codecs. The only solution I found was here http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Technical_Support#Game_freezes_after_click_to_swing_a_weapon.2C_shoot_off_an_arrow.2C_or_use_a_spell(scroll down to 2.8) So the program that I downloaded from that solution is something called the "CODEC Reset Utility." I downloaded it and attempted to use it but it only seemed to be compatible with Windows XP. I am using Windows 7 at the moment. I would like to know if there is another solution out there, if there is I'd be eternally grateful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
