Oblivion crashs when i exit the game

Recommended Posts

I don't know why, but allot of games crash only when i exit them,. I'm running win 7 ultimate 64 bit. So in oblivion you can't modify the screen resolution without "restarting" the game, and therefore when it crashs everytime i exit, i can't alter the screen resolution

 

So how else can i change my screen resolution?

You need to move your installation from the default place to C:|Games\Oblivion - UAC is causing you major problems

 

My standard cut'n'paste "how to":

 

If you have Windows Vista or Windows 7and are thinking of modding, do yourself (and us, because you'd no doubt be asking for help with it later) a BIG favour and use Bben46's guide here to move the game from the default install position to C:\Games\Oblivion. That stops the UAC from mucking up just about every mod you try to use, including (sometimes) official patches.

 

Many mods will require you to be patched to version 1.2.0416, and a lot will require the Shivering Isles expansion - if you don't already have Shivering Isles, buy it and add it to the game, THEN patch it (otherwise you'll need to uninstall and reinstall from scratch to add Shivering Isles later).

 

I strongly suggest adding the Unofficial Oblivion Patch (UOP), the Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch (UOSP), and (if you have Knights of the Nine and/or any of the official downloadable content files, the Unofficial Official Mods Patch (UOMP), plus the Unofficial Patch Supplementals and the UOP Dark Sister Voice Fix. They between them bugfix several thousand bugs and errors, and make the game much better to play.

 

Other "essential" mods are Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE), and then Fast Exit and Windom Earle's Oblivion Crash Prevention System (weOCPS) - the pair of those greatly aid stability and stop many of the more common crash scenarios from wrecking your game.

Fast Exit works like a charm. I used to crash constantly on exit until I got that mod. Highly recommended...and it should solve your problem.

 

I also recommend taking MarkInMKUK's advice on the other utilities and mods, too. :thumbsup:
