For AMD users having trouble
hey folks, i've been having a ton of performance issues with the game over the last few days, and couldn't really find a solution. turns out, AMD put out an optional driver that has oblivion support! you'll have to search for your gpu on the driver site, but you're looking for the optional update for Adrenaline 25.4.1.

drivers page just to make it easier:
https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html

it didn't completely solve my issues - i'm still getting 30 fps outside - but it is a major improvement over how badly it was performing before. worth a shot if nothing else

I figured AMD would address this.
Mind my asking... What resolution are you playing?
Also if you have AMD Anti-lag enabled for Oblivion Remastered in your drivers, DISABLE IT!

For me at least, it caused really bad microstutters and it really should not be used with Oblivion Remastered. It can work really well for other games, just not this one.

This driver was available as the game dropped, it adds support to the game for FSR4 for 9070, game is still unstable and having issues with this driver since release.

It's not AMD addressing anything it just added oblivion to the whitelist for FSR4 in adrenaline on release.

Ahhh... Well, that is good to know. Still holding on the hope. My rig will not be completed until June. Maybe it will be worked out by then.
Stopped using FSR on Steamdeck, and it is functioning better without it.

I don't think this is an issue at all personally as I have it enabled and have zero issues with this game after 16 hours of gameplay. I use FSR4 and antilag

It's done nothing for me, the drivers are a placebo. They did nothing, as AMD drivers rarely do. The game also needs performance patches. Once again, AMD gets the crap end of the stick

I'm confused why an input lag reducer would have this significant of a FPS difference.

Hey all! I have been trying for 4 days to figure it all out and what helped was not the settings, mods or the SAM shut off. I run AMD CPU and AMD GPU and I saw AMD has an optional update for GPU that specifically states support for oblivion in its release notes. While I know these aren't typical WHQL certified this still passed the test suite for them. It's just not Microsoft certification yet. I don't typically go for things early like that but since this update I had only one major stutter but NO crashes. Just throwing it out there as an option because I was beginning to lose hope. So indeed the 25.4.1 did wonders for me.

that update was out before the game and doesn't bring any performance or stability fixes at all for oblivion, it merely adds it to the compatibility list for 9000 series for FSR4.

if you think you can prove otherwise do post evidence though.

i have been using this driver the whole time and experience crashes constantly during fast travel into large areas, the game seems to have an issue with how it handles texture streaming that the devs need to address.

I've had like 3 crashes in 65.8 hours and its usually from crafting potions too fast in Alchemy.. no stutter at all.

I'm on 25.3.2 Drivers on 2560x1440 with high to medium settings.

i'm on a RX6700XT 12gb, 32gb ram, core i5 7500 3.5ghz.. (8 year old cpu)

having crazy bad stutters outside unless I use frame gen on an XT 7800 here can't even run the game smoothly on high!
also disable mods if you are running them.
