How can I drop items?

[sirix]

This is the third + time I've played Oblivion, and I've never completed it. I'm trying again now, with mods and expansion blah blah.

 

Anyways, I can't drop my items on a random place (I know it's possible from various sources)

I've selected an item with my arrow-buttons and pressed almost every button there is. Doesn't work (Bow, not equipped)

I have tried every mouse button combination. Still nothing.

 

As I'm not rushing to drop my bow, it's not an urgent question. However, you should know the "gap" one feels when he cannot use all the functions.

 

Thanks

I'm not sure, but I think you have to select the item in the inventory, then shift right click it in order to drop it.

 

If that doesn't work, no doubt someone will come along to correct me. LOL.

I'm not positive that you're incorrect, but I thought that it was a Shift+Left Click.........

I think you're right. I've mixed up my mouse buttons again... sigh...

Yeah, the OP remember me the first time I played it too, I did pick the item and tried to release it just to be warned there were not enough space to throw it. For a long time i just went to some place I could do it. So much time after I realized I could just press the shift and click the item.

nosisab: I got stuck in the sewers at the start of the game once, from picking an object from the cultists out of nowhere. I remember it was a heavy weapon, and I had nowhere to put it. Had to restart, fortunately it was only the beginning.

 

 

Thanks jojo man and Stormraven for the increadibly fast replies. I must say, that this will help alot for my picking habits.

To prove the speed of the replies, I can say that I haven't even completed the sewers training yet, although you can blame the minor mod bugs :rolleyes:

You're welcome.

Thank you, JoJo Man for straightening out my mouse buttons. LOL

Ehh, sorry but I have another question.

I've been using Half Vampire mod,

No psychic guards,

Divine Knowledge and

Levelled Spell Names (And of corse, unofficial oblivion patch)

I have shivering isles, knights of the nine etc, and when I receive the amulet from the emperor and select my class, I receive a few notes and quests (I think there's two). The notes are about a battle and some cheap horses, and both of them start their quests. This isn't a major bug, but it doesn't go away when I remove my mods, except for the unofficial. Does anyone have any solutions for this?

 

(As far as I understand, the only thing that might cause it is UOP and HV mods since they're "big" and may cause something like this. The other mods are very small and only go as far as changing a few things, and should not alter the quests/notes pickup.)

 

 

EDIT: THe notes are about a battle and armoring a horse. It's probably the official mod quests, however, I did definetely NOT expect them here in the sewers. Good day everyone

sirix,

 

This should probably go under a new topic because it is a new question. And that way, you will get a better response. When you put a new question at the end of an old topic. A lot of times people won't pay attention to it thinking that the topic is already resolved.

 

I suspect that the notes are part of quests that are designed to kick in as soon as possible. Check your readme's in case there's any information there. The one about armoring a horse. Sounds like download content from Bethsoft. The unofficial patch may have changed, but the last time I used it. I had to choose between a version of the patch that used the Bethsoft horse armor and a version that didn't. It was part of the install.

 

Normally you don't get a message about the Shivering Isles until you've been out of the sewers for 24 hours. The thing is that if the quests get started in your save game. And then you remove the mods sometimes data is still left over in the save game. Sometimes that can create problems.

 

I don't know anything about the Half Vampire mod, so I don't think I can be of any use to you there. If none of the above applies. I would suggest starting a new topic.
