Oblivion Stopped Working - Windows checking for Solution

Post » Sun Apr 10, 2011 5:04 pm

I know this doesn't sound bad, but it is very annoying. After hours of work, with a fresh install of OB and installing one mod at a time, I have found the culprit to this issue. The Lost Spires is causing this. I have tried changing the load order with obmm with no success. I am using Better Cities and I do have the fix for The Lost Spires. But no matter where I put them in the load order, I still get the same issue.

Does anyone have any idea what I may do to fix this?

Here is a copy of my load order. Not sure if this will help.

? 00 Oblivion.esm

? 01 Cobl Main.esm [Version 1.72]

? 02 Better Cities Resources.esm [Version 4.9.0]

? ? ? Cobl Races TNR.esp [Version 1.53]

? ? ? Cobl Races TNR SI.esp [Version 1.53]

? 04 DLCShiveringIsles.esp

? 1F Better Imperial City.esp [Version 4.9.0]

? 20 The Lost Spires.esp

? 21 Better Cities - The Lost Spires.esp [Version 4.9.0]

? 22 Better Cities - COBL.esp [Version 2.1]

? 23 Better Cities - No LEYAWIIN Flooding.esp [Version 4.9.0]

? 24 HydroClarity.esp

? 27 Bashed Patch, 0.esp

? 28 invisibilityring.esp

? 29 LeveledListGoldModifier.esp

? 2A SpellRing.esp

? 2B Yazac Mine.esp

I can say that if I disable The Lost Spires the issue stops, but the point is I really would like to play the mod. So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

You could try "Fast Exit 2", an OBSE plugin that tries to solve exactly this kind of issue.

That said, it sometimes will happen, regardless. Good ol' Oblivion engine, I suspect. ;)

Another thing you could try is cleaning some ESPs. Have a look at http://tesivpositive.animolious.com/ - there should be some info about that there. After all, it covers almost everything.

edit: Just search at the Nexus, as usual, if you need to find something like Fast Exit 2.

edit2: http://tesivpositive.animolious.com/?page=plugin_cleaning_basic is the link to the actual page discussing the cleaning of plugins (the basics of it, anyway), at Tomlong's site.

First off, I too recommend FastExit2. It's worth an install whether it solves your current issue or not. Second, it looks to me as if you have not used BOSS to straighten out your load order. There are too many things following the Bashed Patch. Now, some mods do indeed include esp's that much follow it, but those are rate exceptions. If you do already use BOSS, my guess is that those are simply not recognized, and will be labeled as such in your BOSS readout. If that is indeed the case you need to manually move them to a more appropriate spot (above the Bashed Patch). A mod's readme or Nexus description will often include load-order advice. Failing that, ask about load order at Nexus or even here. (Note that I assume the mods were obtained through Nexus, which might not be the case.)

Looking over your entire mod list, seems to me some of the rest of it is out of order too, but we share few mods in common, so that's pure speculation. In any case I recommend downloading and using BOSS if you have no already done so.

One mod we do share is Lost Spires. It was the very first quest mod I installed. It's been in my line-up ever since. I've had no issues with it. But bear in mind FastExit2 was also amongst the first mods I installed.

? ? ? Cobl Races TNR.esp [Version 1.53]
? ? ? Cobl Races TNR SI.esp [Version 1.53]



Not related to problem but you do not need TNR All Races Final since you are using Cobl Races TNR plugin..

Thanks for the info on FastExit2, that did the trick. As far as using BOSS, I always use it, those are plugins that BOSS does not recognise. And yes Corepc, I always install TNR and then never activate the esp since I do use Cobl TNR

You don't need TNR when using Cobl Races TNR as said.
