[resolved] Unofficial Oblivion Patch made Oblivion worse.

[Nono54Fr]

Hi,

Maybe I won't manage it but I will try to be the most specific possible. BTW, I'm playing Oblivion Steam Summer Sales Edition with all the DLC and latest patches (1.2.0.416 or similar)

So, in one quest of the Thieves Guild, you have to denounce some informant to the guard and follow them into the house of said informant to arrest her. That quest would crash every time. The UOP purpose was to correct that, to be able to finish the quest.

It filled its purpose but there was a huge downside, the game became unplayable, stuttering like crazy (FPS drop or real stutter, don't know). But inside, outside, day, night, rain, sun, you name it. No amount of adjusting the settings were able to do something (specs : i5-33xx, 8 giga, HD6870 / 1680*1050 AA8x)

After looting The Nexus, UESP and co, I tried numerous mods to help like OBSE, Wrye bash, OSR, Streamline and more, following tutorial and tweaking them their ini files or through the game.

It was slightly better but still no way like without UOP and since it's one of the most recommended mod, I can only conclude that I f*cked up somewhere but what ? Is there any lengthy - detailed tutorial that I may have skipped ?

Thanks for reading.

(PS: Oblivion is somewhat better than Skyrim xD)

Have you ever tried Large Address patch and PCB (Purge Cell Buffer) ?

There is no lengthy tutorial for installing this mod as it is a very basic installation process, compared to a lot of other mods.

If you do it manually, then you quite simply just extract the contents of the 7zip file to your Oblivion folder (which on Steam is normally C: > Program Files(x86) > steam > steamapps > common > Oblivion).

UOP does not require the script editor (OBSE) to run and Wrye Bash isn't a mod it's a instalation tool (my favourite as it goes).

I can't think why you are having the problems that you are having, you could check your load order, or maybe simply dissable the plugin from the Data Files in the launcher after you have passed the broken part of the quest that you are doing.

I have been using the Unofficial Oblivion Patch for the last 2 weeks with no problems so far.

[RESOLVED] ... so far.

The load order was fine, first Oblivion then UOP and then everything else. Deleting Oblivion.ini helped a lot with some CTD. Today, I tried to make it work and finally managed it with the QTP3 mod.

Oblivion > UOP > QTP3 > QTP3-UOP compatibility > OBMM Archive Invalidation > USIP > UOMP > OBMM Archive Invalidation (useless but just in case) > OBMM to activate & order the lot.

Now, Oblivion is beautiful and without stutter or CTD. Saddly, I cannot jump 50 feet at once anymore ;-)

Glad you got it all sorted, as posted above, you could use BOSS[code.google.com] to sort your load order.
