Performance Enhancer Streamline

[Lurker21]

I'm sure many of you are already aware of and using this mod and I saw it mentioned in one thread, but I decided to start one anyway to bring it to the attention of anyone who hasn't heard of it. I recently found this mod called Streamline which enhances the performance of the game quite a bit, I don't understand everything about how it works but it does a great job. I have had no issues with it at all and the game now runs smooth as glass on my modest hardware. Here's a link: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/10400/

Streamline saved my life

I use version 2.1, for some reason the version 3.0 or 3.1 crashes my game

 

My notebook is core5

8gb of ram

onboard video card 

 

I have no problems with Meshes and Textures

But when some mod puts OBSE plugin folder '

The game is slow

Use only the basic folder OBSE

StartQuest SLini2

 

But now I'm happy with my game 

[DeadSomething]

i used it, but sometimes it just changed texture settings too often during play and it kept soem stragne priorities, like i want characters on high detail and never changing, but the game kept changing the characters in the first place instead of lowering view distance or other effects.

after fiddlign with the ini a lot, i got it to almost crash my game etc.

i stopped using it, but it might be very useful, if you know what you're doing

I also had this problem at the beginning

Managed to solve with this mod: http://www.loverslab.com/topic/1447-pyffied-mesh-and-high-rez-oily-texture-for-mbpxeo/

And Some tests in Streamline to get the maximum use of in my notebook
