Tracing Oblivion Launch Process

Post » Tue Apr 29, 2014 9:55 am

Hi,

I am embarrassed to say my usual debugging methods have failed me recently. I am playing around with a very large install, which has been working fine. Yesterday I made some small changes and now get CTD on launch.

I've been through the usual suspects (changes in ini files, obse setup, etc), but am failing. I could go nuclear and do a full uninstall in Wrye Bash and start fresh, but with so many mods, I am lazy to do that.

I know some years back, on another play-through of the game, I came across instructions for tracing the launch process and seeing at what point it crashes. I cannot for the life of me remember what tool was used (MS, Sysinternals, other?) to create a launch log I could then read.

Appreciate it if someone could jog my memory here and give a pointer in the right direction.

Thanks.
