Steam oblivion crashing on startup?

Recommended Posts

My steam copy of oblivion is crashing every time I start to launch it with mods. It works fine in vanilla, but as soon as I try and use OBMM to install a mod, or install OBMM even, it crashes just before the Bethesda logo. Any help? About a week ago I installed a launcher mod, called OCOL. It seems to have destroyed it. I reinstalled it several times since, and have even deleted EVERY Oblivion-related folder on my computer, to no avail.

Please, if you know any way to help, I really want to play, and get back to work on my own mod.

I have posted in the steam forums, but I figured that I might as well post here too.

 

Thank you.

I use DVD but it might be because of install location if on windows - the game (if modding it) doesn't like the default location where windows puts extra security on. That might mean having to reinstall steam and all your games into another directory. Of course you should try and verify the integrity of your oblivion steam game first (if you don't know this part you can look it up and should be easy to find). Other than that I heard oblivion steam+mods is much less stable than on the DVD, so if you're serious about playing a heavily modded game then you might want to consider getting a disc... if nothing else works that is.

 

On another note I'm not sure if OBMM still works at 100% or has any support so use it at your own risk. Speaking from personal experience it completely broke for me and I had to start using NMM which works just fine for it. Your results may vary from person to person though. And in case you are not already aware, don't forget about also using Wrye Bash and a sorting program like BOSS or LOOT.
