    Advice: You might consider trying to get a team. You also may wish to divide the idea up into regions, tackle each region individually, and then release each one individually. Seeing the end result of your efforts in little bits will help keep you, your team, and the mod's users interested.

    Encouragement: GREAT IDEA! YOU CAN DO IT!

    :2cents: good luck.

    TES 5?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I could see a TES game being released soon, but I'm not sure that would be best for the community. Even though it'll probably released next year, and it'll have been about five years since Oblivion, the Oblivion modding community is far from it's natural twilight. Part of me really wants to start killing strange new creatures in a strange new land on my PS3, but it would be disappointing to see some of the greatest modding projects out there (RST, Deserts of Annequina) lose steam because of a new TES game.

    I think that this community has a lot of potential, and more than most others seem to realize. I just don't want to see it killed.

    Weird, Freaky, but TRUE!

    My guess is that the Beth has added some in-game setting to keep FPS rate possibly high - if object is hidden, then he disappears, decreasing the amount of objects to calculate by computer. :rolleyes: And in this case this thing becomes a bit officious, unable to distinguish half-transparent object from non-transparent.

    This is only a wild guess, of course.

    Actually Zu, the Gamebryo engine doesn't do that at all, which is one of the chief complaints you hear from modders when discussing the generally poor optimization of the engine.

    Thanks you for your service, I come from a military family with two disabled vets, and it's a great thing you've done.

    Also, modders are amazing, and welcome, and maybe you'll start modding yourself someday :dizzy::smug:

    Re-Install Headache

    You know everything I know. It's as if I'd never un-installed the game.

    specs:

    HP Pavillion Elite Desktop

    2.6 GHz 4 CPU processor

    8 GB DDR3 RAM

    3.5 GB VRAM

    Anyway, I'm gonna give this another shot tomorrow and see if I can get it to work, if not then I'll just have to settle for not playing OB any more....

    Both, after having deleted all of the mods from the used refs in OBMM and Wrye Bash and uninstalling Bash and OBMM.

    C/Program Files (x86)/Bethesda Softworks/Oblivion

    Ghosts are invisible remnants of files left behind when you delete something; there is no way to get rid of them, other than a full wipe. Windows 7 and Vista sometimes utilize them to restore programs (like in this instance), the problem is that I don't want them to do that and there's no way to turn that feature off.

    Okay, so I uninstalled and re-installed Oblivion, and it seems to have awoken the ghost of the original install, which is now full of conflicts and corruptions and all sorts of nastiness.....

    Here's the conversation on it from the shouty, so you can see what has already been covered, I'll remove all off-topic comments.

    


Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:45 PM) That location no longer exists, Will. And I'll start a thread and shout the link......


nottlong  :	(Today, 07:45 PM) Ok just want to check and see if you had anything dated before your oblivion esm and might cause the problem.


WillieSea  :	(Today, 07:44 PM) When you are in your folder called c:/games/Bethesda Softworks/Oblivion, is there a button at the top of that window that says 'compatibility files'?

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:43 PM) Yes, with Lock Times disabled, so it shouldn't be the culprit.

nottlong  :	(Today, 07:42 PM) @ maxwell are you using wyre bash?

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:42 PM) I installed to default because it was previously installed to c:/games/Bethesda Softworks/Oblivion. So I figured default was a good move, that way it was side by side with MW

lilith  :	(Today, 07:40 PM) Because that is exactly what it sounds like is happening. You might want to make sure nothing got installed into program files by mistake.

JackTheHedge  :	(Today, 07:40 PM) Where is it installed to, Max?

JackTheHedge  :	(Today, 07:40 PM) Yes, that does sound a LOT lke User Accounts Control.

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:39 PM) Also, thank you all for your ideas so far 

lilith  :	(Today, 07:38 PM) Ok, hmmm then I'll need to think some more.

Joben  :	(Today, 07:37 PM) oh yeh. I had WEIRD problems when i first put OB in the default spot...moved it to C:/Games and never looked back

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:37 PM) UAC?

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:37 PM) I installed it to a different directory.

lilith  :	(Today, 07:36 PM) Max are you running vista or win 7? You're ob is installed in program files? Either turn off UAC or uninstall and install directly to a different directory, such as c:game

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:36 PM) I uninstalled them all, and I have that feature de-activated to begin with. It's called "lock times"

WillieSea  :	(Today, 07:35 PM) Don't some of those 'mod control' programs keep memory of your mods and install them if they are missing?

Maxwell the ...  :	(Today, 07:34 PM) All of my old mods are still installed for some reason.... I did everything I was supposed to and it's not working....... I even kept shouting about how it was going to make sure nothing was wrong....  This is very disheartening.

    I'm sure I made some horribly stupid mistake and someone will come in here and embarrass me, but I really just need to be able to play, Beta Test (lots of commitments there), and mod (a few major commitments....)

    Thanks for your time and/or help.

    Hey, you certainly speak French better than I do, and your mastery of English (your second or maybe third language?) is far beyond my mastery of my second language.

    And yeah, there are a lot of very interesting French projects out there, I wish more of those were available in English....

    Okay, so Jauffre at Weynon Priory stiffened and fell over (as with paralysis) during the "Weynon Priory" quest, just as he tells me that he'll take me to the amulet to see if it's safe.

    Solutions I've tried:

    Disable/Enable

    Wait

    Continuing On

    Previous Save

    When I open the console upon Enabling it says AI Package 30.00, and then he stiffens.

    I understand that USIP is a necessity, but at the moment I can't really deal with it. Guest is playing Battlefield on my big computer while I try to solve this issue surreptitiously. I can't DL it right now or pull it off of the other computer. How likely is it to be the cause of the crash? If it's unlikely then I'd prefer just to do it later :D
