An Elder Scrolls: Oblivion thead

Does anybody know if the character zoom function that is set to the scroll action on the mouse wheel can be changed?
I have managed to get my controls set the same as morrowind now :) It was doing my head in everytime I right clicked to bring up the inventory and I ended up blocking.
The only thing I am missing is the weapon change on the scroll wheel. I used to use that a lot.

The gameplay is great and I like the new spell casting while having a weapon equipped. But it seems the spells and parts of the combat have been dumbed down which is a shame. Swings n roundabouts I suppose.

Spoiler Maybe!! Highlight. (hope this is dark enough colour)






I talked to this homeless guy in chorrol, about gray fox, he didn't let up so i used my speaking skills on him. Then eventually he told me i had to meet up with the thieves guild at the waterfront garden at midnight. When you do that it will start a mini quest to steel a gaurd captains diary. Its easy. You gotta beat two other thieves to it though. But once you know where it is, you'll have no troubles getting there first. Its in a house in the temple district. And there you have it you are now in the thieves guild

I'm going to upgrade my RAM today from 512 just so I can use that ini tweak to get rid of the green texture to make the game perfect :D

Can someone tell me which RAM will be best to get with reference to Oblivion?

Crucial 1GB DDR PC3200 CAS3 £56.34

GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC3200 Value Dual Channel Kit CAS2.5 (GE1GB3200BHDC) (MY-005-GL) £52.87

OcUK Value 1GB (2x512MB) PC3200 184pin DDR Memory Dual Channel Kit (MY-004-OK) £49.94


Lastly if I get one stick of Crucial 1GB will it work with my exsisting 512 ddr 400 (can't rememeber make) to make 1.5gb? If so that would be a real bonus.

Sorry for tech post lol :)
 
Well, finally received it this morning, by recorded delivery.
CE box was a bit bashed, kinda gutted about that.

Only played an hour and a bit, graphics are lovely, really weird since every game ive played before this looked crap on my old machine, but i'm used to the grpahical goodness now :D
It was a bit like watching cut-scenes non stop at first.

The GUI really sucks bad in this, and unfortunately, i dont think it'll be moddable to better standards.

I'm getting around 35 FPS out in the open.

I've tried various 'FPS improvements' so far.
Turning V-sync off gave me a few more FPS.
Turning the frames to render ahead to 0 also gave a higher FPS value, but visually appeared lower for me. Maybe because frames arent rendered ahead of time? Assuming thats what that value does -.-'

I'm glad it's very similar to Morrowind, if only the UI was too :mad:

Someone above commented about spell/weapons slots.

9 is plenty. I'd expect most of the time for you only to need access to one spell from each of the different schools of magic (for isntance, a fireball from destruction, self healing from alteration etc). This leaves plenty of slots for a close range weapon (blade) and a long range weapon (bow).

For me 9 is not enough there should be hotkeys for spells, I have so many spells and the situation dictates which ones I need, Im sure someone will make a mod soon to sort this out.

This isn't neccesarilly the kind of thing you can mod, odds are it's pretty hard coded... it's nt something you can fix by replacing texture files or anything like that.

I stand by my point though... using your logic where do you end... you could have 50 different spells, do ou want 50 hot keys? that'd just be nuts.

I certainly generally hack and slash my way through a dungeon using 3 hot keys.... 1 for blade, 2 for some kind of damage on target, and 3 for heal self. I really don't see why you'd need that much more - the enemies in any given dungeon tend to have similar characteristics, so it's not like you'd need to swap between 4 or 5 spells as some are only effective some of the time!

I'm assuming there is some sort of scripting interface so it would be possible to reprogram some things. As long as there's some sort of access to the code, I'd say it would be pretty easy to do.

Get a spell! They even allow you to equip both hands so you can have a shield in one and a sword in the other, or use a double handed weapon :p
