I Screwed up without backing up textures

Recommended Posts

i screwed up my water somehow (wasnt doing anything with it to begin with) and i only have one or 2 mods installed, and they shouldnt effect water. but its gotten VERY blue, sorry i dont have pictures

 

I have something similar happen every so often - like when I change reflections off and back on the water turns this weird purple color. xD

I personally fix mine by adding Enhanced Water v20 HDMI. When I get the purple, I just turn it off, open and close Oblivion, then turn it back on and everything's perfect.

 

You could give that a try and see if it fixes your problem.

not textures, probably your ini file is messed now (several parameters there control water effects). You may want to consider renaming the old Oblivion.ini and letting the game rebuild a fresh new one.

 

This ini reconstruction may be useful even if willing to try another water changing mod (or give another chance to the actual), the messed ini may compromise the mod's final result.

Not many do it, but since you stated having just a couple, reinstall them after recreating the ini. The problem is in the mod probably does not tweak all parameters so whatever parameters harming your water looking may not be corrected by one other mod, still probably the main parameters should.

 

It's your call, maybe just installing another water changing mod solves the problem for you.

 

PS: the old recommendation never gets old, always keep a working backup of configuration files.

Notice I did not advise you to delete the ini file but to rename it.

 

A diff tool (like notepad+ you can get here in the Nexus has a diff plugin) can be used to compare and revert important tweaks.
