Angry_Games Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 *bump* now that I have my main rig up and running, I've spent a few hours today playing this again finally! I got to say...a dual core @ 2600Mhz and X1900XT Crossfires with Bloom lighting + 4xAA/16AF (the AF is set in teh CCC) @ 1280x1024 on my LCD...is simply fantastic! I snagged the Oblivion Mod Pack v4.0 from the sticky (thanks Smoken Joe!) and installed a couple (along with my $2.00 Sestuna Horse Armor mod...don't know if it was worth $2.00 but it's cool lol). anyway, got to reload momma's rig as her hdd is dying so I had to finally get out of the game and thought I would bump this thread as I needed to find the tweak part of it so I could set the SMP bits also the stupid game redetects my graphics each time I start the game and I had to make the damn Oblivion.ini READ-ONLY and set the settings manually in it =( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A6437 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Oblivion is awesome i loved it. I say i loved it because just yesterday after have invesiting 40+ hrs on it it froze and i rebooted and it says my saves are corrupted. Like a stab in the heart it burns. This really licks butt and i don't think i have the patience to begin again. : ( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltes-5 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Man, I just got started with the game a couple of weeks ago and my job takes me out of the island to another island for the weekdays. That means no playing time for 5 days, :sad: No FEAR, no Quake4, no Chaos Theory...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Oblivion is awesome i loved it. I say i loved it because just yesterday after have invesiting 40+ hrs on it it froze and i rebooted and it says my saves are corrupted. Like a stab in the heart it burns. This really licks butt and i don't think i have the patience to begin again. : ( well I've had it since the day it hit the store shelves, and I'm only level 10 right now...that is how little I get to play it lol but even in the hours I have put into it so far, I already can't wait to play it again as a totally different class because while I dig fighting with a sword/shield...I really want to try as a mage, a rogue, etc, and do a few things differently, as well as play with some more mods and add-ons etc. here's my only problem at the moment: this rig in my sig...everytime I start teh game, it re-detects my hardware and sets it to Ultra Quality, but when I choose Bloom Lighting and AA 4x, the game still sets it for HDR and no AA, and I cannot figure out how to get teh damn game to stop trying to detect my video settings each time I start it. I've got the .ini filled out just right....except I can't force Bloom lighting in it and I can't force AA (but I did finally get pissed and just set it in the CCC for my Xfire setup). Everytime in the game i try to set it for Bloom + AA, or change any settings in teh Video options inside the game, it tells me I have to restart the game, and like I said, when I restart, it redetects my vid settings and screws up all the changes I have made. I've made my ini read-only also, but that has no effect on these changes that are being made by redetecting each time I start. I do NOT have the beta patch installed because I don't have any problems with teh game other than this, and I never had problems with it at all like this with my previous setup (7800GTX single gpu). I'm thinking it maybe is because of Crossfire but I dunno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oRiOn Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 A6437 - I feel for you, I invested around 60 hours, beat the game and pretty much had everything you can get including the new addon's online then I decided to boot it up in order to slay some random stuff and the game crashed and game saves out the window! That game is notorious for screwing people over, I think it is made to, in order to get you to play it over -Will Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A6437 Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 HA i somehow got it to work!!!

-CsA-TAZ Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 1280x1024, HDR, full textures, about half or so draw distances. And V-sync, probably the v-sync thats killing frametates but i can't stand the tearing that games get without it. I'm probably getting 50fps or so, its just amazing how much more pretty it'll be a year from now. What do you mean buy tearing and can you show a screenie of what you mean, anyone?

cuoficr Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 What do you mean buy tearing and can you show a screenie of what you mean, anyone? not to go off topic but WoW does the same thing with vert. sync disabled. my v sync locks it at a max of 75, lowest it ever goes is 70, with V sync off it tears at 140FPS + Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 What do you mean buy tearing and can you show a screenie of what you mean, anyone? You can see earing in a lot of FPS-style games as a horizontal line across the screen, with basically the frame shown offset somewhat. V-Sync forces it to show a full frame before moving on to the next basically. Creates a much smoother look but reduces framerates pretty significantly, I almost always use it though, in some games its unbearable (to me). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tearing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 no one knows how to get it to stop detecting my video performance every time I start the game? its just an annoyance...I've set the ini as best I can, mostly to get MORE eye candy instead of more FPS since I've got der-bombay X1900XT Crossfires and the equivalent of an FX-60 lol. I can't wait to play some more, but I have to play a lot of Eve for a while too since I'm trying to buy something new in that game, and it takes a bit to earn 200,000,000 credits (ya...200 million bux eh! I could be like Grunty and just buy teh game money with real money on ebay...but that is so weak I can't imagine doing such a thing). But I really got back into Oblivion last night....a lot. I really enjoyed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
