EldritchNexus Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) I'm playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY on Wineskin in Mac OS X 10.6.8, using files installed from a physical copy of Oblivion and not a torrent/download. Half the textures are missing or glitching in/out of existence. My character's skin is ridiculously black, has no lips, and the other characters' faces are either badly-rendered or invisible. Also, I can see through the walls of the starting dungeon when I start a new game. I've tried fixing it without mods, even tinkered with the .ini files, then downloaded the Unofficial Oblivion Patch and a couple of texture overhaul mods, but to no avail. Can someone please help me figure out why the textures aren't loading? Are there some settings I could try? Speaking of settings, I would try changing them from the menu, but the game crashes when I leave the video options menu, and "saveini" doesn't work at all. I'd really love to know what to do, since Oblivion's my #1 favorite video game and would love to play it on my Macbook.

DrakeTheDragon Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I was running Oblivion rather fine on my MacBook inside a Parallels virtual machine. Didn't have success getting anything useful out of a Wineskin wrapper at any point so far. But there's some other people on here who said they had more success, so maybe they will know more. But if not even a Vanilla Oblivion install works technically correct, then no mod in existence will be able to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldritchNexus Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Well, I copied/pasted the files from a Windows laptop where the game was installed to a Macbook, since the Macbook wouldn't acknowledge the CD files, even when I put them on there. Is it possible that there were some files that I might've missed when I put them on there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EldritchNexus Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Never mind. I switched to a Cider wrapper. Now the textures and meshes are where they're supposed to! Thanks, anyway. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
