Slow down and choppiness, even in menus and titles... AGAIN

[darksoldier217]

I posted here a few weeks ago... someone told me to use BOSS to try sorting load order and to clean my mods, and it worked beautifully!!! for a time. Now, not sure what is different or what happened in the background, but the choppiness is back, and I haven't so much as touched the mods since I got it working again. Attached, please see my load order and tell me what I'm doing wrong; please! Why does this keep happening?! Any ideas? Similar problems?

Make sure you are running BOSS from within Wrye Bash (icon is in the lower left corner of the Wrye Bash window).

 

Also, where is your bashed patch? What is WB reporting for your percent towards A-Bomb for your latest save? How many saves do you have currently in your saves folder?

[darksoldier217]

I don't have a bashed patch... I never really understood what they did, and I always got warning boxes afterward and couldn't figure out what was going on. Could that be my issue? When I make a bashed patch, do I turn off the patches that were combined and only run the bashed patch instead of say the ten it came from?

 

My A-Bomb percentage is only about 3.4%. I have roughly 64 files in my save folder (32 separate saves)... maybe excessive there too? Lol, thank you so much for your input...

[darksoldier217]

UPDATE:

 

I looked up a youtube video about how to create a bashed patch and made one, but not really any significant performance difference. I also reset my A Bomb counter to 0 and deleted a majority of the saves in the folder (backing them up first, of course). Last time, this seemed to have been solved purely by load order rearrangement, but I'm almost certain I haven't touched anything since I got it working last time (didn't want to endure this frustration again ARGH).

 

Here is the youtube video I watched to make sure it wasn't bad info...

 

Also, my "new" load order is down below. BOSS says I don't really have dirty edits (I scrubbed every mod last time this happened) and I trust it's sorting; I used LOOT a while back and that royally messed up everything.

 

My only other thought is maybe Oblivion Reloaded? I've been playing with the .ini to make my game look better (and to get rid of some of the features I wasn't keen on), but I don't see why it would cause such a performance hit (even my mouse is slowed down on the title screen and main menu).

The only points I'd like to comment on about the video on are I personally like to have Lock Load Order turned on in Wrye Bash, as it makes life easier for me as I also create/edit mods using the Construction Set, which will change my load order when I save my edits to mods using the CS. Oblivion uses a simple system of file date and time to control load order. When the game starts it uses the date and time on all the ESMs and loads them from oldest to newest, and then loads all the ESPs the same way, from oldest to newest.

 

BOSS just assigns file dates and times according to the order it has in it's master list, and WB displays your load order the same way when you select to have it display by load order.

 

Without Lock Load Order set in WB if I edit a mod then it will automatically move to the very bottom of my load order because it will now have today's date and time from when I saved my edits. That means I'll need to run BOSS before I can rebuild my bashed patch. With Lock Load Order turned on in WB after I edit a mod and start WB it will reset the edited mod's date and time to what was assigned by BOSS the last time I ran BOSS, so I can immediately move on to rebuilding my bashed patch (so it saves me one step in each edit mod/test mod cycle).

 

The other point is in changing the options for rebuilding your bashed patch. The video author mentions it, but I'd like to reinforce the message ... use the defaults for the bashed patch settings except for specific things you need to change for your own particular situation. Before you customize the bashed patch options make sure you understand what and why you are changing. Also a good idea to keep notes so you know exactly what to change back when/if you muck things up.

 

Don't use Oblivion Reloaded myself because my machine won't handle it (in my opinion ... quite possible that certain pieces of OR would work fine but I have no burning need to devote the time and energy required to find out what can and can't work). I have a 3.0 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU (should be more than adequate) but I'm hobbled with a video card that only has 896 MB video RAM and a meager 2 GB RAM (which was all fine and great when I built the machine a decade ago, but is lacking for today's Oblivion modding).

 

What I would do is turn off everything in OR, see what my performance was like then, and then turn things back on in OR one at a time and test thoroughly in between. You will gain a good understanding of how each piece of OR affects your own performance. It will take time, but nothing comes for free.

Hey, thank you again for all your replies :smile:

 

So i rebuild the Bashed patch with only default settings like you suggested, and I just flat out turned off Oblivion Reloaded. No improvements :-/

 

I did keep the "lock load order" checked before BOSS sorted my stuff and I just moved them manually; LOOT tried to reorganize my oblivion once and it was a total mess.

 

No idea why this is happening... even watching the mouse is move is like its moving through mud...

 

EDIT: I resorted with LOOT just to absolutely try everything.... NO improvement :( I'm legitimately out of ideas at this point... I've done everything from last time this happened and nothing has gotten better... Crud.

Did you have anything like an automatic video driver update (you need to watch that Microsoft doesn't try to slip something like that in with their security updates)?

 

Ya ... I'm getting to the grasping at straws stage too.

 

Lock Load Order in WB works just fine as long as you run BOSS from the icon in WB (down on the lower left toolbar). If you run BOSS from the desktop icon then start WB it will revert to the load order you had when you last ran BOSS from within WB (or turn Lock Load Order off ... it really doesn't offer you much if you never edit ESPs with the Construction Set).

I put the task manager on in the background after I quit and once or twice, windows was doing... something that took a lot of disk and cpu power, but when it ended, the problems persisted. I really appreciate all your help (both times!), I think I'm just gonna play skyrim for a while until I have time in a few months to really dig in... My only other thought could be that I'm doing something wrong that's really basic, like launching it using the wrong launcher or accidentally turned off some absolute n00b setting (like how in the Fallout 4 ini you have to type 'enable mods' or whatever, as an example). But, from everything I've read and tried in the past, this doesn't quite add up :(

 

But I really do appreciate all your help :)

SOLVED

 

There was a virus on my PC that was hogging both my hard drives' resources; the impact was most noticeable with oblivion vs other games for some reason. The viruses were destroyed and now the game plays amazingly again; better than ever I'd daresay!

 

:D

 

So, for anyone out there experiencing similar jerky slowdowns and you've tried everything in-game to fix it, consider doing deep scans in your registry files for hidden viruses.
