WoogieMonster Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I've seen that happen a few times, usually as a prelude to a crash. In my case, it is not always the sky layer, I've seen it on the ground, on walls and on water. I do not know what causes it, but I can tell that when it happens, before the game crashes, it is safe to save your game, shutdown and restart from your save. The problem will usually clear itself. When in doubt, it is always best to keep two saves just in case this or any other glitch causes one to corrupt. Also, I don't think it has anything to do with your rig (I base that assumption purely on the fact that your rig and mine are completely different, yet I see the same glitch), but I am curious about that temperature you posted. Is that 81 C or 81 F ? It makes a massive difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant0 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Shappire HD 3870 X2 apparently has some heat issues, you may want to make sure you have a case that is large enough, and can maintain some decent airflow through that case. Beyond that, you might want to try using a different version of the catalyst since there are occasionally problems with them. Or it might even be that crossfire mode isn't working within Oblivion. Supposedly crossfire isn't supported in 8.2 or in XP, but 8.3 still has bugs, so you might just have to disable it till its working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My case is a NZXT Lexa Blackseries Blue, which has 4 fans and has room for one more at the botom (which im buying ASAP since it sits just above the 3870x2, so I hope it helps getting rid of hot air faster). The CPU fan is an ASUS Silent Square Pro. I'll try 8.2 if I can't fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dada123 Posted April 8, 2008 Author Share Posted April 8, 2008 Ok, I created a new character (new game) and everything was ok. Played for half an hour and no glitches/crashes, with Catalyst A.I on. Pretty awesome, constant 60 FPS etc. Now im trying to get a few things sorted: Whenever I try to load the Qarl's Dept of Field mod (the omod one) the screen goes all blue. Also, always that I try to extract the Qarl's 4069 res textures pack 3, I get a CRC error. Isn't there a rar with the textures or something? Btw, what is exactly QT3, it contains the textures on pack 1 and 2 too? Is that the highest quality retexturing project out there? Another thing I would to know: Did anyone manage to activate full realtime shadows everywhere (not just on characters, like on the early videos) or thats just hard-coded and imposible to modify? Thanks. P.D: haha@tittle edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
