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.

Sorry to hear, macole. Hope you're okay.

I just lost six hours getting my Breton mage started

Sweet! That's when it's really good, right? You play and you get caught up in your character's story and pretty soon it's daylight (or nighttime) and you realize hours have gone by.

Does anyone use an eat/sleep/rest mod like the Survival mode in Skyrim?

I use Basic Primary Needs and back it up with Basic Personal Hygiene (keep your 'toon clean, or face a myriad of disadvantages like reduced Disposition due to some NPCS due to BO. Wish they made something like this for Skyrim). Both of these are configurable with .ini files, of course. BPN is not 'current' as far as I know, but I been using it for years with no issues. Pretty sure both are made by Maskar, a name we can trust.

I have a Camping mod too, but I forget its name. Dozens of those, I'd imagine.

Being a haute ecole rider, you'd want all those horse mods. Don't forget Simple Saddlebags, assuming the other mods you've got don't add visible pouches. Acadian also knew of a mod which added reigns, although I never got it to work right.
