An Elder Scrolls: Oblivion thead

Yes i saw that patch and installed it, but the game seems to be hardcoded to not allow AA and HDR on at the same time so that driver is kinda useless really.

Yes that's why my posted screenshots have AA and HDR on... :rolleyes:
 
hmmm just got this today for my pc and everything is fine so far (plays fine with acceptable framerates with everything maxed in game (with HDR) however I have downloaded the Better texture pack, extracted it to my oblivion Data folder and well the testures look no different?!

:confused:

help.

Also using the standard ones the 360's distant textures look quite a bit better (I have it on both so can comment on that)

Well how did u get AA and HDR on at the same time then? i installed the driver but the oblivion launcher still wont let me have them both on, I have a X1900XTX before u ask.

enable AA on driver panel, and hdr in game. I know this and dont have an ati card :P
 
there should be a nvidia patch sometime, afaik oblivion uses FP10 HDR, which should be perfectly doable with any card out currently with AA. i think its FP15(or 16?) HDR which only ATi's can do at the same time as AA

I'm having the same problem, I read that you need a file called ArchiveInvalidated.txt which then specifies all the textures in the directory. I'll try it.

Interesting. There is nothing about that in the Readme for the file though.

I will look into it.

Cheers mate.

Also this isn't a problem or anything but why is it any time I go into imperial city it goes all foggy and then rains :p

It does it on my 360 too. I want sunshine lol.
 
I'm not convinced you need to do that.

The 2 texture replacement things I've installed make a marked improvement with no further alterations/tweaks.

Are you sure you've extracted them to the right directory?
 
Sorry to sound completely stupid:
I'm in the middle of the quest to rescue the missing painter. I kill the trolls and return the brush to him, but it's almost as if there is a glitch after that; he paints the portal and I see green swirls appear for a second, then they disappear and i'm left with him stuck in a painting animation and no portal to go through.
Am I missing something?

Its bugged. I noted this when browsing the official forums as someone posted a temporary fix.

After the painter fails to create the door,
open your console ( the ~ key , the one to the left of the 1 key)
type in the following:
COC cheydinhalrytheshouse (then hit the enter key)
your character will transit to rythes house
still in the console type the following
setstage ms14, 75 ( enter again )
~ again to close the console
Rythe appears out of the studio and the quest runs to its finish.

Hope that helps.
 
right instead of making a new thread i thought i would ask in here, i just bought the game and installed it fine but when i come to creat a new game i click on the tab and it just stalls i can do any thing with it??????????? try different drivers for it and i have unistalled and reinstalled twice now :confused:
 
Hehehe, just overheard a conversation:

"Have you heard any news from the other parts of Tamriel?"
"Yes, i heard saint jiub has driven all the cliff racers from Morrowind."

Good old Jiub :D

Haha, I kind of miss the cliff racers. The wolves just don't enrage and infuriate me in the same way that strangled scream/burp from those flying wretches did.
