Oblivion combat issues

[orhkorhk]

Hi guys,

 

Having a little problem here- actually scratch that, to me this is a huge problem. The Enemies I engage in combat with in my game eventually stop animating; everything would be fine for the first few seconds while I'm fighting them, then they would stop moving, but I would still hear them grunting, and I would still be getting hit. Is there anyone that has a clue as to what is going on here and how I could fix it? I would much appreciate it, thanks.

 

So far I have tried disabling all of my mods, Rebuilding my Wrye Bash Patch, playing on a "clean" Oblivion. I've tried everything except re-installing Oblivion- which I'd like to avoid if possible.

Have you tried starting a new game? If so how soon does the problem come back?

Part of the problem is you are running a ton of mods that have the potential for conflict.

 

DR 6, UV 2, Combat hide, Duke Patrick's stuff, Renear's Overhaul, undercover.esp?, MotionBlur.esp not to mention the magic and fatigue mods. The problem is that too many mods that effect idles can put a huge strain on your CPU and bog the game down. Unfortunately Oblivion being an old game was designed to primarily use your CPU and not to share a load with the GPU. It may be that you simply don't have the muscle to run all of this...without knowing what your computer specs are, I can't answer that for sure.

 

Try going through your list and making sure which mods are "have to have" and getting down to a smaller "core". Test this core with a new game to see if you still have the animation problems. If not then begin to add back mods 1 or 2 at a time that are in the "would like" to have category until you hit the animation problem. You will kill two birds with one stone as you pair down your mod list and find the offending mod.

 

Don't forget to rebuild you bashed patch each time you add stuff back in

You might take a hard look at getting rid of this as it is known to have issues: Mounted_Spellcasting_Deadly_Reflex_Compatible.esp

 

Lastly I would make the following change to the bottom of your LO:

Bashed Patch, 0.esp

DeadlyReflex 6 - Combat Moves.esp <- you don't want this in your bashed patch.

Deadly Reflex 6 - HeX NifSE Patch.esp <- you don't want this in your bashed patch.

Ah right, seems I have forgotten to list system specs as well D:

 

Athlon fx4100 quad-core

Radeon HD6670 1gig

8gb ram

 

 

UPDATE: So I installed a fresh copy of Oblivion and started narrowing down the problems. It turns out that it wasn't any of the mods I was running, but rather something in the Meshes folder that might've come from a stray file causing the problem. I'm in the process of reloading the mods and cleaning up the Meshes folder.

 

Thanks for the last bit of advice Greg, I think I'll go ahead and make the changes you recommended. I didn't actually notice any problems with my game until 2 days ago when I messed up and moved one of the bashed patches I had into another profile.

Sounds like a graphics driver issue, I've known a lot of friends have difficulty with Oblivion and Radeon cards. Hope you get it fixed.
