Gog Oblivion Options

[SubRosa]

I bought Oblivion from Gog.com a while ago, and finally got around to installing it. It comes with the executable already pre-patched to 4gb aware. It also comes with all the dlcs. They install automatically with the game.

I tried it with my old Morroblivion files, and they work! For some reason Morroblivion had stopped working with my old GOTY disc install of Oblivion. So I think I might give that a try sometime soon.

I also got my Martial Arts for Oblivion mod mostly done today. As I did with Morrowind, I took a dagger and changed the mesh to a ring, and renamed it Martial Arts. Works like a charm. I just wish there was some way I could change it to use the hand to hand animations instead of the dagger animations. But I am not sure that is even possible.

I also created a shield the same way, but have not tested it yet to see how it works.


And now Morroblivion CTDs every time I try to load a save again.

Ah Ha! I got it working. The problem - somehow - was that after my initial install I added the Morroblivion files into OMOD files for OBMM. For some reason those files coming out of an OMOD broke the game. I deleted the OMODs, and copied the files over directly. Viola! It works again.

G'luck, rider!

I use X-padder. 🎮 But I also use the keyboard & mouse sometimes, mostly for menu stuff. Can't remember how I have my Oblivion.ini set up, whether bUseJoystick is 0 or 1.

Here's a trick (and sorry for off-topic). With pure keys & mouse, character speed is walk or run, there is no variable movement. Xpadder recommends we have our joystick OFF while starting the game, and we're not supposed to turn it on until the opening screen finishes loading. Well one day I forgot. My controller was ON. Once I was in the game I realized I could walk or run with variable movement!

I actually have Oblivion from GOG. Had to buy the game from GoG just to get the DLC, which did not come with the Anthology disc. There. On topic.
