wallah Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I installed natural envoriments and DarkUId DarN today. And when I start Oblivion again the ground in the game is divided into squares and have a strange colour (purpleish). Any idea what I could do to solve this? I ve tried to uninstall the mods but it s a bit ahrd to find all the files. Btw, it seems to be a coloured map of the game world that is used for ground texture...

bben46 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I have seen this before associated with the natutral Environments mods. Purple ground I believe this is caused by a group of files called shaders. These files can be different for different graphics cards. If they somehow get the wrong shaders installed one of the results is the terrain in the foreground is purple. The shader package is based on your particular graphics card and is installed when you first install Oblivion. Any changes should only be made by people who are experienced with Graphics shaders. If you want more information on shaders, google it. I have seen 3 possible fixes for this problem. The easiest is to go into your in game menu, (esc) select video and make sure your texture size is set to large. The second involved the textures from unique landscapes. reinstalling them fixed it. The third involves loading patches in the wrong order and the only way to fix that one is to reinstall in the right order. Note that the oblivion uninstaller leaves behind your saves, mods (data) and oblivion.ini. These will still be there after you have reinstalled. So if You have a problem with a mod causing the problem or a bad save or a bad Oblivion.ini file The problem nay still be there. My recommended uninstall and reinstall leaves you with a clean install. And your original mods and saves in a separate folder that you can put back into the new game. Or you can start over and install your mods again. When you uninstall Oblivion it doesn't really uninstall everything. Then when you start adding mods before you have started the game, some things may not get initialized properly. I have a recommended reinstall available that covers all of this if you need it. Please leave some feedback to let me know what works. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
