I'm using obse 20 (the most recent one)

Latest OBMM

Pluggy Version 132

Wrye Bash 295

 

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

AMD Phenom™ II X6 1045T Processor (6 CPUs), ~2.7GHz

Memory: 8192MB RAM

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 430

There's a limit to how many AI packages the game will process in the player's current cell. I don't recall exactly what that number is (maybe 15 ... memory's a bit fuzzy) but what happens is the NPCs who don't get processed just stand there. Is that what you're seeing?

[block2001]

Yes this is exactly what I am seeing and even if the are walking they dont talk at all to each other like saying things like "how are you" and stuff

[Striker879]

When the AI system gets overloaded the affected NPCs won't do anything except stand there. If you know which mods you have loaded that add a bunch of extra NPCs you could perhaps lower that number (if the mod has a way of doing that, perhaps an ini file setting).

 

I've had a look through Koroush Ghazi's Oblivion Tweak Guide with an eye for something that may help. In the Advanced Tweaking section there is mention of some multithreading tweaks you could try to see if they help:

Multithreading Tweaks:

 

bUseThreadedBlood=1

bUseThreadedMorpher=1

bUseThreadedTempEffects=1

bUseThreadedParticleSystem=1

bUseMultiThreadedTrees=1

bUseMultiThreadedFaceGen=1

iNumHavokThreads=5

iThreads=9

iOpenMPLevel=10

There's not really anything that is directed at your problem specifically in Koroush's guide. The game was designed before most of today's hardware features were available, so most of modern hardware's advanced features can't been taken advantage of.

[Balakirev]

25 is the default number. There are a few mods that tweak the NPC AI to a higher number; MMM, for example, resets it to 40. If you use the great utility Wrye Bash, you can set a value up to 100 through the Bashed Patch.

K thanks I'll try that out and get back to you guys
