ArcLover Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/34346 Wanted to start a thread about this as I really love the concept of this mod, yet I cannot seem to get it to work at all - I've been trying for weeks but whatever I try, the instant I should see a chain beast everything goes black except the UI - the game/sounds continue but I can't see anything at all regardless of if I'm in day or night, or even in the middle of a city. I've tried asking on the mods page for help but haven't heard anything yet. I have the latest stable OBSE installed along with several plugins - seen here from BOSS: OBSE Version: 0.0.20.6 Elys_USV.dll OBSE_Elys_Pluggy.dll SoundCommands.dll sr_Oblivion_Stutter_Remover.dll Version: 4.1.0.0 weOCPS.dll Here's my current load order after a reinstall from OBMM: Oblivion.esmDLCShiveringIsles.esp Loading Screens - Vanilla No Text.esp Streamline 3.1.esp DMRA Stock Clothing Skimpy.esp DMRA Stock Armor Skimpy.esp DMRA Skimpy Armor Expanded.esp Knights.esp quickstart.esp Chain it!.esp Specialanims.esp UChainBeast.esp zzEstrus.esp FuroGeneratorTrap.esp LeatherArmor.esp milkslave.esp TafasSexyLingerieset02.esp If this is the wrong place I'm sorry, but I hope someone can help.
Guest ThatOne Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Try to reinstall chainbeasts manually. Something might've gone wrong (could be a skeleton problem). If that fails, push UChainBeast.esp further down the load order and see if it helps.
Ark of Truth Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Ok try switching your load order to this. Stuff in blue should be replaced with recommendations at the bottom of this post. Oblivion.esm DLCShiveringIsles.esp Knights.esp Streamline 3.1.esp quickstart.esp DMRA Stock Clothing Skimpy.esp DMRA Stock Armor Skimpy.esp DMRA Skimpy Armor Expanded.esp LeatherArmor.esp milkslave.esp TafasSexyLingerieset02.esp Chain it!.esp zzEstrus.esp FuroGeneratorTrap.esp UChainBeast.esp Disable for time being and if it still [/color]happens Loading Screens - Vanilla No Text.esp Specialanims.esp Recommend using instead. Alternative Start Arrive by Ship (Much more stable then quickstart and more friendly with character creation) http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/11495
ArcLover Posted August 10, 2012 Author Posted August 10, 2012 No luck - tried reinstalling it manually (both an older version and the most current version) as well as using the suggested order/replacements but again - I activate the Chain Beast Egg and when I should see a Chain Beast, everything goes black again with just the UI showing.
Mashi Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Chain beast has always been abit...wonky. Make a clean save, then try bumping back to an old version like 1.24. Run it, see if it works. Then update to 1.30, then upto 1.31 and up to 1.32.
Ark of Truth Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 All the version of the mod work so its most likely something else then the mod itself. Do you have obse installed?

Yes' date=' as shown in my first post I have the latest available version ^^; Chain beast has always been abit...wonky. Make a clean save, then try bumping back to an old version like 1.24. Run it, see if it works. Then update to 1.30, then upto 1.31 and up to 1.32. Just tried using 1.23 with as clean as I could and still the same issue.
Mashi Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Okay now the messy side, you probably won't like it. Move your obse(and maybe your pluggy/ess just incase) saved data. You can find it in my documents\my games\oblivion\saves it'll be with the saved data too. This will reset any existing any mods that use obse\ess\pluggy saved data. There's kind of a serious problem with the mod corrupting variables in the obse data. Give that a try and see what happens. In the past that has worked for me about 70% of the time.
ArcLover Posted September 2, 2012 Author Posted September 2, 2012 Ok, sorry for the late reply - ended up upgrading my system all around and on reinstalling everything Chain Beasts is now working without any real issues of note. Not sure what was wrong originally but thanks for all the help offered - I really appreciate it.
