Lam3r Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Well I love Oblivion. I used to mod it a little bit and think I'll get back into it soon, and was wondering if anyone would be interested in partnering up.But, problem is, Oblivion crashes ALL THE TIME for me :icon_crap:. I've tried lowering gfx settings, reinstalling, reading forums, EVERYTHING. I'm running WinXP and I really have no idea what to do to fix this, it crashes randomly whenever I play, with no warning and at random intervals.Any solutions?PS: didn't know where to put this :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNova Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Save often? Dunno, sorry :/I play it on XBOX360\. Just recently restarted, this time I'm not even touching the main quest.I'm having WAY more fun deciding my own destiny, and finally exploring everything on foot. Havent fast travelled once.

Lam3r Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Yeah I do, you really should if you're smart, regardless of whether u crash or not.Yeah the main quest gets annoying, especially when i'm enjoying the wilderness then everything gets red and scamps are everywhere. (Like near the Inn of Ill Omen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNova Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Yeah. Oblivion gates are fun to a point, but they really become a thorn in your side.Not to mention the number of them that it takes you FOREVER to finally get to the top of the tower from the point you enter the gate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorn Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 unfortunately, Bethesda's engine that they used for both Oblivion and later Fallout is quite unstable. The only advice I can give is make tapping quicksave a reflex.Beyond that, the easy way to close oblivion gates is just to learn a simple invisibility spell sold at your local Dark Brotherhood branch!

Eviltyphoon Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Are you using a lot of mods? If so, download [this](http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=20516) to get them in the correct order, which will stop a lot of mod related chrashes, and download [this](http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22282) for all other crashes. Since I started using these 2 mods, my game has crashed a LOT less. You will need [OBSE](http://obse.silverlock.org/) for it to work (But if you have a lot of mods then you prolly already have OBSE).

DFA Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 yeah i had a shitload of crashes when trying mods. Robin suggested i use B.O.S.SRobin also told me all the cool mods, like OOO and oblivionXPwithout oblivionXP, the game is pretty much stupidalso, theres a mod that prevents many known crashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I did a very clean install before Christmas. It means loading the game after each mod installed, checking all mod compatibilities with TESView, possibly creating merged mods to handle similar ID points…Ended up spending a hell of a lot more time installing stuff than I did playing. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
