RetroNutcase Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Yeeeeeah. This is a new one for me, kinda. I, like many, got hit with what's called the nVidia Fog Bug, and for awhile, I had tamed it using an .esp designed to fix the issue. With my new mod setup, this .esp seems to no longer work, nor does the fix via WryeBash's tweaks... The only place I've seen it so far in my short experimenting is the Imperial Prison tutorial. In one of the narrow hallways, I get a black (well, more like dark blue) screen if I look in a certain direction while in first person mode. However, I know when this happened in other areas, it kept popping up all through my playthrough, which...Kinda ruins the game. Here's my load order, and I'm using all recommended tags from BOSS, which did the sorting...So, yeah, anyone have any idea what's going on here? I should note that I suspect it has something to do with All Natural, as I didn't have this problem resurface until I installed it.

Tomlong54210 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Switch out IWR for Animated Window Lighting System. You don't need a separate plugin because there is an nVidia fog fix tweak in the Bashed Patch. Turn it on under... Tweak Assorted?? or one of the Tweak XXX sections anyway. If you still have problems, update your graphics card drivers. This issue can arise with conflicting drivers with any type of video card, not just nVidia. problem and solutions: http://tescosi.com/wiki/PCS:Black_screen_(only_HUD_visible) Popular Outdated Mods: http://tescosi.com/wiki/Oblivion:Popular_Outdated_Mods You may also benefit from looking at this article for configuring streamline (guidelines) - tescosi.com/wiki/Oblivion:Configuring_Streamline Use All Natural for fog. You can skip StreamSight and stick to OSR for FPS optimization, unless you really need the extra aggressive addition of Streamline as well. Some people use StreamSight, but many do not like the weird fog glitches it introduces. --Tomlong54210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomlong54210 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Okay, I was just kind of laying out all of the options, sorry. Have you tried updating your graphics card's drivers though? I think this can also result from lacking sufficient hardware, but looking at your load order I'm guessing that not really an issue. --Tomlong54210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroNutcase Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Well, now I can't re-create the bug after redoing a BOSS, bash patch rebuild, and removing the Black Screen ESP in exchange for the built in Wryebash fog fix. ...Bizarre. Will have to see if it resurfaces at this point or not, but thanks for mentioning that more up to date mod to replace IWR! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you're saving three plugin slots out of this. ^__^ Happy gaming!--Tomlong54210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
