this has become the most esential part of oblivion for me, I was trying to track down a problem with the game crashing a couple of days ago and I turned off OBGE at one point...... :sick:
I use an ATI card and have Tray Tools installed, I noticed it has a setting for z-buffer- disabled, 16 bit, 32 bit,
it's currently set to disabled, would changing that to 16 bit make any difference to OBGE?
I have no idea if the z-buffer is the same as the depth buffer, so i'm sorry if this is a stupid question.
Z buffer is the same as depth buffer, yes. I'd recommend leaving the setting alone, otherwise it might break OBGEv2's reading of the buffer.
Well during the installation of AN it asked me if I had the last version of OBSE (I do), so I answered "yes", also something about a patch... but nothing else really.
Game worked perfectly fine with OBGE before I installed AN...
I'm not going to repeat myself. There is a section in the OP and Readme entitled 'How To Report Bugs Helpfully' (the part detailing the important logs is most appropriate), and you are ignoring it. Continue to do so, and I will ignore you.
On a more general note, I'm getting tired of typing out the readme again and again and again, so I think I'll be a little less forgiving on the lazy in general from now on. Something like if someone asks something covered in the readmes without making reference to having read them, I'll ignore them. That allows for complaints about the readmes so I can improve them, questions about stuff I haven't included in the readmes (which probably will get added then) and questions about stuff in the readmes that I haven't explained very well. I haven't yet decided whether or not to add a note of this stance of mine to the OP to warn people, or whether or not to post an 'Ignored' reply to point people towards good practice.
I do, however, thank all those who do have the patience to deal with lazy users, with special mention to Smooth. He's not that active over here, but about once a week I check out the Mod Talk and Mod Troubleshooting Oblivion forums on the Nexus for a chuckle, and he's (?) always posting in reply to people there in quite some detail and generally being helpful, and I've noted him doing the same in many mods' comment threads. So to Smooth and the rest of you: :thumbsup:
