A Way to Speed Up Oblivion Combat animations?

[zelazko]

Is there way to speed up the combat animations without editing the animation files? Like in editing/adding some values in Oblivion.esm?

[TheMastersSon]

Try these edits in oblivion.ini (the one in your MyGames\Oblivion folder, NOT the game's program folder!):

 

In the General section, add or edit this line:

iNumHWThreads=4

 

The setting accepts and uses values up to 6. Set it to the number of physical cores in your cpu.

 

In the Havok section, add or edit this line:

iNumHavokThreads=4

 

Again use the number of physical cores in your cpu.

 

Finally, in the Combat section, double the values for these three settings (from 4 to 8 ):
iMaxHiPerfNPCTargetCount=8
iMaxHiPerfPCTargetCount=8
iMaxHiPerfCombatCount=8

 

Be sure to save a backup copy of oblivion.ini before making these or any other changes.
