Or, telling you to buy a digital copy so you dont need to do a disc. Or burn an .iso and mount it virtually.

I don't have any issues with Fallout 3 though, nor anything with Bioshock 2 on highest settings earlier
I'll at least try another disc next time cause this one has been heavily used.
Okay, then your disk needs cleaned or may be warped or scratched.

Yeah, it has seen better days. But I wonder how this can affect performance?
Isn’t there a thing that causes the game to perform poorly the longer you play on a given character?
Shouldn't that happen way before the 19 year mark though?

Isn’t there a thing that causes the game to perform poorly the longer you play on a given character?
Yeah, a lot of junk can build up over time in a character's character (saves). It's been too long since I last played to be certain of this, but it seems to me that some utility, maybe within Wrye Bash?, can check saves and remove unneeded clutter. But again, I might be totally wrong.

Okay, then your disk needs cleaned or may be warped or scratched.
Yeah, it has seen better days. But I wonder how this can affect performance?
The disk/disc spins at however many RPM and is scanned or used to be read with a needle. Either way, any scratches or warps cause breaks in the continuity of the signal being sent to your graphics/monitor/etc. It causes big issues. Was it warped/scratched? Can you get a new one?

Yes, I think there was something about 100 saves causing issues. I normally delete all autosaves.
I have new/unused discs and that wasn't the problem. Tried the 5th Anniversary edition disc but same thing happens after about ten minutes as I was walking back and forth in the same area. Suddenly microstuttering and I hadn't even done anything much. If clutter has been built up in the saves, shouldn't microstuttering be there all the time?
Also, as soon as I walked into Skingrad castle courtyard everything was again buttery smooth.

You should start a new game and see if that helps. 
Negatory. I'm going down with this ship 
Update; it seems to come and go as it pleases. I can approach a location and get the stuttering and while being there it goes away. And then it comes back and goes away again.

Maddening
It may have been like this before but I've tolerated it cause it goes away. I haven't noticed any other computer problems, Fallout 3 included.
Cell loading issues?

With Oblivion there may be no telling what the problem is. It’s a wonder the game runs at all.
Oh, don't be like that

I LOVE Oblivion, but the game is a mess “under the hood”, lol
I know. To say it's optimized is going quite far out on the axis of jesting
I've read that disk over time can eventually degrade and begin to decompose or rot making the disk unplayable. Unless you buy a new disk or a digital copy there's not much you can do about the disk eventually going belly up... and no one want to see a disk go belly up, it's like seeing a German Shepard, a dog breed to sniff bombs, chase bad guys while smashing through windows go to belly while on the couch. Believe me it's a sad sight to see for sure T_T.
Mm? Oh, don't mind me. I'm just taking a tour through heaven

Got rid of my King size mattress and downgraded to a Queen size mattress, now I got a little bit more room. I'm also thinking about getting a H&K416 airsoft mostly because there's a character in the game Girls' Frontline 1&2 named Klukai aka H&K416 who's one of my favorite T-Dolls.

I don't mind joining you in an Offspring remembrance, but I don't do the same for Taylor Swift.
QUOTE(mirocu @ Apr 20 2026, 12:59 PM)
I know you like her though; lol.
I'm not a Swiftie but I do like a few of her songs, yes. They're catchy and I like her voice. That's not to say I like her as a person but that's always the case with artists. Who they are privately is none of my concern.

I don’t like Taylor Swift because I just don’t think she’s that talented. To me, she’s proof that being super talented and creative isn’t necessary for someone to make it big. All you need to do is start with an image and gain an audience, then as your audience ages up and changes, you rebrand yourself along with them. Taylor Swift is brilliant at marketing and branding herself to change with the fickle nature of pop music. Whether that’s a good thing or not, well, I guess that’s up to one’s own personal opinion.

Agree with the above, but also add to that the fact that she takes credit for her presence being why her boyfriend's football team wins games = yeah, if I had any reason to like her that would have ended it. She is pretty, but that is the only good compliment I can give her.
Lol
Sorry Birb, I know we kinda pooped on your party there. If you like it, that’s all that matters!

Well, I know you used to really like her, but hadn't heard you say it in years. I was fine with her back then (though not a fan of hers) = her sound just wasn't for me. She was pretty, but no substance (like bubble gum, fun to chew but no flavor).
I dont even think she's pretty.
I think she's pretty. With enough makeup and styling...
Also; can anyone direct me to a microstuttering mod for Oblivion? Tried searching Nexus but came up short

For what little it's worth, I too think TS is rather physically attractive when before the public, which is, of course, how I always see her. As to a mod that causes Oblivion to microstutter, I must confess to having never heard of such a thing.

"OSR" = Oblivion Stutter Remover mod.
QUOTE
To eliminate micro-stuttering in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, the most effective solution is installing the Oblivion Stutter Remover (OSR), which addresses engine-level frame pacing issues. For the modern Oblivion Remastered (UE5 fan project), users suggest the Ultimate Engine Tweaks mod to fix stutters and input lag.
This video shows you how to install the Ultimate Engine Tweaks mod to improve your game's performance:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Atk1sdGWp9A&t=63s
Key Mods and Fixes:
Oblivion Stutter Remover (For Original Game): Enables smoother frametimes. Key settings to check in its .ini file are bFix64Hertz = 1 and iSchedulingResolution = 1.
Oblivion Reloaded: A comprehensive overhaul that includes a performance-boosting frame rate manager.
Ultimate Engine Tweaks (For Remastered): Replaces engine.ini files to reduce lag and stutter.
Lossless Scaling (For Remastered): Utilizes frame generation to smooth out traversal stutter.
Important Troubleshooting Tips:
Disable VSync: Turn off VSync in the in-game settings and cap your frames to 60 using external software (like Nvidia Control Panel or RivaTuner) to stop stutter.
Use an SSD: Running the game on a Solid State Drive significantly reduces stutter caused by loading new world cells.
INI Edits: Modifying bUseBackgroundLevelStreaming and other [BackgroundLoad] settings in the Oblivion.ini can reduce stutter.
Note: For the Remastered version, it is highly recommended to follow community guides on Reddit for the best settings.

Are you playing the original 2006 version or the UE5 "Remastered" fan project?
Are you using Steam, GOG, or Game Pass?
What are your PC specs (CPU/GPU)?
I have the mod bookmarked but none of the .ini settings talked about is present in my files, I checked thrice. Weird.

Some firewooding today although Dad did all the work as I'm quite a bit ahead of him. Took some pics and I'm very happy with my iPhone camera, couldn't have gotten it at a better time as the regular camera I had went out just prior.
Just spent some time cleaning the drain of my bathroom sink. On a Friday night.

Not much going on here in Kansas. Ate pizza, drank some apple flavored beer and waiting for payday.
What? Not even cleaning your sink?
