Salometha Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hello everybody! Since today I have a problem with my Oblivion. I reinstalled my computer (windows and everything). Before I did this Oblivion was runnig fine, but now the highlighting effects on metal, glas or the fur of Alien Slof's horses are missing. Instead these spots are colored in dull white. Also shadows don't change gradually from dark to light in some cases but in lines and squares. The hardware stayed the same. After a day of trying around with the options I'm completely at a loss, what can be the reason for this. So I hope that someone else has an idea! Thanx for your help!Salometha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hickory Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 When you reinstalled Windows did you go to the website of your graphics card manufacturer, and download and install the latest video drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellsMaster Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I think its you config file... you need to use the Oblivion Launcher and reset the graphics settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwaxalot Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Exit Oblivion, then try renaming or deleting the oblivion.ini file (...\My Documents\My Games\Oblivion\Oblivion.ini) Oblivion will then redetect hardware. It will also, probably, not recognize your video card and set everything to medium. Just change the settings according to what you think your card will support (You can always change them later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
