Oblivion is now crashing during combat

[rinoaff33]

I've long been an Oblivion player, ever since it first came out, in fact. It's been a rocky road, full of confounding bugs and mod installations, but I've always managed to find a solution. Now, though, I'm flat out stumped as to what to do. My game seems to randomly crash when either I or an NPC swings a weapon or shoots a spell. I've tested it, and it randomly occurs ONLY in combat, not if I'm just swinging my sword around in the streets. Furthermore, it seems to happen the most if I swing then quickly hold down block or if both the NPC I'm fighting and I swing at the same time. I've uninstalled all animation addons, and it still happens with the vanilla animations. I've heard that custom weapons can cause a problem, so I'm using a katana from OOO if that matters. Also of note is that this is only just now happening - I've been playing my character for a few weeks with no problems until now. Can anyone help?

 

System specs (not sure if this is everything I need to list):

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

Processor: Intel Core i7 CPU

8gb of ram

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6850 (latest drivers)

I've also changed Oblivion to run on the 3.0 shaders.

Mods (I've recently used BOSS if that matters too):

 

Streamline 2.1.esp

rerun BOSS and read its comments about your load order.

[rinoaff33]

BOSS says that it is outdated, of course. Unfortunately, I tried to use the newest version of Streamline before, but it never actually worked properly, so I reverted back. Should I just disable it?

[Fonger]

Should I just disable it?

Let's just say

 

it has unique bugs

[rinoaff33]

Disabled Streamline, got into a fight with a random guard, crashed in the middle of the fight when I cast a spell. I also tried with a vanilla weapon and it still crashed.

 

Edit: I just tried the crash prevention mod. The only difference was a windows error sound when the game messed up.

 

Edit2: I also tried disabling OOO and Ultimate 3rd Person, and that didn't affect it.

 

Edit3(lotsofedits): Deleting my oblivion.ini did nothing to help either. Then, I found out that this only affects one of my characters. I killed pretty much half of the Imperial City on my other character with the weak blade of woe to make sure I had a long fight and it went perfectly fine. I also loaded my oldest save on my affected character and the bug is still there (CTD as soon as a guard's sword connected - is it a sound problem, since it crashed before playing the "hit" sound?).

 

Here's the log from the "crash prevention," although it seems a bit arcane.

Mon Jun 20 17:54:41 2011 OCPS build 2009-03-28 prevented crash at offset 0x000016a2 (eip: 0x004016a2, sub_401690). Link to 0x0083008e is faulty!

Edit once more: I tried it once again, and it definitely crashes when I'm hit by an enemy. Google turned up nothing except something about resetting mp3 codecs, but the provided exe file didn't run due to it being designed for Windows XP. It's probably not an audio issue anyway, as it happened with sound disabled in oblivion.ini. It even happened when I disabled everything except Oblivion.esm in OBMM. Seriously, what is going on here?

 

Billionth edit: So I finally got Streamline 3.1 working, and I figured out something weird: I tried combat once more, and this time I decided to see what would happen if I fought with no armor. Surprise surprise, no crashes. Then, as soon as I equip the Rogue Armor (admittedly a new mod, albeit a very good-looking one that deserves some props) and get hit, the game crashes. So apparently the armor is bugged? Why would it suddenly start doing that considering I've been using it for several days now?

 

Is there a way I can get this to be moved to mod support now that I know for sure that a specific mod is causing the issue? Any other armor (or no armor) works fine except the Rogue Armor, even after reinstalling it and using OBMM's Clean feature.

I understand this is an older thread, but it's the only shot in the dark I've got! I found this via google, and I'm getting the exact same issue: crash to desktop while being struck during combat while having Rogue Armor equipped. It happens only in combat only when I'm struck by an enemy, and it happens with a variety of enemies that I've tested on.

 

Have you found a solution to this aside from just not using the Rogue Armor during combat? I saw another thread about this, but it had no solution-related replies either.

 

Thanks.

[HeyYou]

Does the rogue armor have a script on it??

[Balakirev]

Did you read the comments on the mod's page? There are several complaints about crashing while wearing it.

[faeriexdecay]

I saw that there were complaints but haven't seen any solutions. Just wondered if someone figured out a solution and figured I'd poke this thread to see if the OP or someone else had something to add.

[GrazingFlava]

yet me too having the same issue

 

when other are fighting nothing does happen

i even was able to kill the wild animals that attack me

 

but when i hit a human / kajjit (or anything that wear armor) my game will crash

 

instantly i not know what more to do this is getting annoying :(
