Ely's Silent Voice DLL issues Options

[Lena Wolf]

Hi, I imagine a lot of you are using Ely's Silent Voice mod for Oblivion. It comes as a DLL, there is no ESP - or at least this was the version I downloaded from Nexus two days ago. The problem is, it crashes Oblivion... Well, my Oblivion, obviously, but I also tried without any of the other mods. Oblivion crashes on wait, but also randomly after you've played it for about 3 in-game hours... which is not very extensive, to put it mildly.

I was wondering if anyone else ran into this? I suspect it has to do with Windows security, rather than with any bugs in the mod itself. I have Windows 10 which is constantly updating (as they do), and I run GOG Oblivion with OBSE, but I don't run it as administrator because that doesn't work with with my Xbox360 controller.

Does anyone know if administrator rights are required to run Ely's Silent Voice? I have other OBSE plugins in DLL form, and they don't cause crashes.

Any pointers would be appreciated! Alternatively, is there Ely's Silent Voice as an ESP? That might solve the problem.

I am fairly sure that Elys does not add any administrator requirement. Windows has some concerns about where a dll gets loaded from, and 10 may have different rules from 7, where I last used it. There may be an administrator “blessing” requirement on the dll, if it does not come from Program Files or the Windows folders.

Edit: regsvr32 is the process I was trying to recall.
