Welcome to my Oblivion Reloaded guide and related guides! I have changed how this guide page works. You can now find an updated version of Oblivion Reloaded for Dummies under the Articles tab of this mod page. I also put my ini tweaking guide, originally incorporated into Oblivion Reloaded for Dummies, on its own article page. The reason for this change is because I have some ideas for other guides related to modding Oblivion, for things like how to use Wrye Bash and BOSS, understanding load order and install order, understanding DistantLOD, etc. Jul 19, 2017 - Use Porting Kit and install 'The Elder Scrolls IV - Oblivion' on macOS using Wineskin technology. I want this page to be a repository for all these guides, with each guide being a new Article. Feel free to make suggestions for future guides. The Downloads tab still has my ini files for Oblivion Reloaded. It may also host other files related to these future guides. Thanks for reading! If you're using WINE version 1.3.x or above, you can launch the game without any native DirectX DLLs, but bug #20074 is still actual for now, therefore installing DirectX9 or just placing d3dx9_27.dll to your drive_c/windows/system32 directory would be preferable. Since stable release 1.2.1 Oblivion Game of the year works stable on many popular distros. Although, if you're running older WINE or have some regression issues, you can use some tips listed below. Prior running the game,you will need to obtain d3dx9_27.dll. You can obtain it using./winetricks d3dx9 Or you can get this from the DirectX supplied with Oblivion like this (guide adapted from ): • Install via your distribution's package manager • With the Obvlivion disc mounted (assuming that it is at /media/cdrom), run the following commands: mkdir /tmp/dx9 cd /tmp/dx9 cabextract /media/cdrom/DXREDIST/Aug2005_d3dx9_27_x86.cab cp d3dx9_27.dll ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/ • After installing Obvlivion, run winecfg. In the Applications tab, press 'Add application' and select the Oblivion exe, then go to the Libraries tab, type d3dx9_27 in the 'New override' box, and hit the 'Add' button. If the game fails to start, try renaming the Video folder in the Data directory. The videos should work since Wine 0.9.45. Alternatively you can enter the Video directory and remove some specific files that could cause a crash. My Video folder currently contains these files: 'bethesda softworks HD720p.bik', ' Map loop.bik', 'OblivionOutro.bik','CreditsMenu.bik' and 'Oblivion iv logo.bik'; and works fine with an unaltered main menu screen. Currently it's needed to enter some additional registry entries into Wine manually prior running the game. VideoMemorysize to the memory size your video card has. Optional key is OffscreenRenderingMode, where value 'fbo' is recommended and value 'pbuffer' has best results. See the example.reg file below: REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Wine Direct3D] 'OffscreenRenderingMode'='fbo' 'VideoMemorySize'='256' pbuffer is only recommended if you are using 0.9.38. Should you choose to use pbuffer instead of fbo, you may have to switch off refraction shader in game's Oblivion.ini file to workaround bug 8184. BUseRefractionShader=0 Users of ATI cards may have to set the following in Oblivion.ini to prevent it from producing solid colors on the screen. bDoImageSpaceEffects=0 If you experience game freezes on combat start or combat end, these are related to music change. Try loading native quartz.dll instead of Wine one. Or workaround by setting the following in Oblivion.ini bMusicEnabled=0 If you are having problems, or would like more info on running The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion more smoothly, please see .

In this tutorial we look at a few ways of creating a bootable Windows 10 USB flash drive from an ISO image. Creation of a bootable USB from an Ubuntu Linux 15.10 Desktop ISO is also discussed for comparison. These techniques can be used to create bootable flash drives for many other operating systems. If you want to install an operating system (OS) on your computer, you can download an with that OS. A Windows 10 ISO is available from Microsoft at. If your computer has a DVD drive and DVD burning software, you can just burn the ISO to a DVD and use that to boot your computer. However, many of today’s computers don’t have a DVD drive, but do have a USB one. Creating a bootable USB flash drive is not as straightforward as burning a DVD. With that version of Mac OS X, and all versions since, it's been possible to use the Terminal command createinstallmedia to create a bootable installer of the macOS, in this article we'll show you. Feb 28, 2017 - MacOS Terminal: Create a Bootable USB from an ISO Using “dd”. ISO file is a widely used disk image format and the standard format for. We look at three of the possible approaches for doing this on a computer running Mac OS X. Disclaimer: use the information found in this tutorial at your own risk. Please be careful! It is very easy to ruin your Mac’s operating system if you make a mistake, especially when using the command line! Method 1: Create Bootable Windows 10 USB With Disk Utility This may be the easiest way of creating a bootable windows 10 USB from an ISO image in Mac OS X. Unlike the other two methods, this one does not require administrative privileges. Unfortunately, this will not work for Ubuntu: the ISO for Ubuntu 15 Desktop contains a Linux-specific file system that cannot be read by Mac OS X without installing additional software. Here are the steps: • After inserting the USB flash drive, open the Disk Utility found in the Utilities folder under Applications. In this example I use a 32 GB SanDisk Cruzer and create a 5 GB partition on it, called WIN10_TEST. Set up USB with MBR partition scheme • Mount the Windows 10 ISO by selecting File -> Open Disk Image in the Disk Utility. Please make a note of the volume name by which the mounted ISO image is seen in the Finder. It will probably be a long sequence of letters, numbers, underscores, and dashes. • For the purposes of this tutorial we will assume that the USB volume is named WIN10_TEST, and the ISO is mounted as volume ISO_WIN10. Using the Finder, copy all files and folders from ISO_WIN10 to WIN10_TEST. If you encounter an error, you can use the following command in the Terminal to copy the ISO contents to the USB drive: cp -R /Volumes/ISO_WIN10/ /Volumes/WIN10_TEST Please don’t forget the slash (/) after ISO_WIN10!!! Before running the above command, you may want to make sure that the directories exist. If the first one doesn’t, then the ISO may have been incorrectly mounted. If the second one is missing, then maybe the USB drive was named something else or needs to be taken out and re-inserted. After running the command please make sure that the content of ISO_WIN10 is now also found in WIN10_TEST. See this post about an error that can occur while copying the ISO contents to a USB flash drive: Congratulations! You now have a bootable Windows 10 USB that you can use as installation media for a PC. Not sure if you can use it for installation on your Mac, though. BTW, if you tried this with the Ubuntu 15 Desktop ISO, an attempt to mount the ISO using the Disk Utility would have resulted in the following error message. Error mounting Ubuntu 15 ISO As mentioned earlier, this is because that ISO contains a file system that can’t be read by Mac OS X. Method 2: Create Bootable Windows 10 USB Using UNetbootin Software This method can also be used to create an Ubuntu bootable USB. Here we use a piece of software called, which is available for multiple platforms, including Mac OS X. The steps are: • Download UNetbootin from its official site, • Make sure you allow your computer to run apps downloaded from anywhere. This can be done in System Preferences under Security & Privacy. You may want to revert to a more restrictive setting after making your bootable USB. In our previous article, we explained. But you may need to remove only Microsoft Word. So today, we’re going to provide a full guide of 2 ways to uninstall Microsoft Word on Mac fully with accurate deletion of its service files. How to Uninstall Word on Mac Manually • The first thing you should always do before uninstalling any application is to quit the app. This can be done right from the Dock panel and the context menu, where you should select Quit ap. But, if you have some issues and the app does not respond to the close command, then you need to call the Force Quit Applications window using the Command+Option+Esc key shortcut. Word 2011 for Mac is so, so ugly. The new version of Office by contrast is clean and much more Office-looking. Office 2016 for Mac better resembles the Windows version, which will likely please switchers. • • • After the first step, delete Word in the regular way you are used to. Just move the application into Trash by dragging and dropping it or by using the context menu. Well, now we came close to the most important part of the program’s deletion. You might know that every application creates service files during its operations. And, even if you delete the executable file, the service files still remain on your disk until you remove them manually. MacOS doesn’t provide any default tool to find and remove the leftovers of apps. You have to search for them yourself or download special software tools for this task. We will tell about such tools in the second part of the article. Now let’s see where the service files are stored on your Mac. • Open Finder and go to the Library folder. For this, use the Command+Shift+G key command. In the search field type ~/Library and click the Go button. Here you should find all the folders and files related to Microsoft Word and delete them. In our case, the Word service folder was located in the following directory: ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Word However, we would recommend that you also check the following directories for possible leftovers: ~Library/Application Support ~Library/Caches ~Library/Preferences ~Library/LaunchDaemons ~Library/PrivilegedHelperTools You should accurately remove all the files created by Microsoft Word, but be very careful not to touch any other file. Otherwise, the deleting of important files may damage the system. After this, just don’t forget to empty Trash. Well, the manual way of programs deletion could be too long, inconvenient and unsafe in case you delete files by mistake. So, most certainly, using a Microsoft Office removal tool would be more suitable for you. Read on to learn how to uninstall Word with a few clicks. How to Uninstall Word on Mac with App Cleaner & Uninstaller With, you can avoid the long process of manually searching for service files. The application will scan your Home folder and, in several seconds, show you a list of all your applications as well as the list of service files for each application. You can try App Cleaner & Uninstaller for. • First, launch App Cleaner & Uninstaller. • Then select the Word program in the left section of the window. • Click the Uninstall button next to the app’s name and confirm the deletion. It seems that this tool is the best MS Office uninstaller. Please note, App Cleaner & Uninstaller finds absolutely all support files for every program to be uninstalled. It is designed specially to allow you to uninstall apps from Mac completely and avoid useless service files cluttering your disk space. You can also use the app in case you just want to clear caches and clean up your Mac. For this, just select only caches in the right section and click to remove them. App Cleaner & Uninstaller provides two more features – you can find the leftovers of previously removed apps in the Remains tab as well as manage your extensions (login items, screensaver, installations and so on) in the Extension tab.

These might cause by Microsoft Word document corruption, Word files deleted by mistake from Mac and trash emptied; USB drive or other storage devices which stored your Word documents formatting; and some other unknown reasons. When this happened, how can we recover Word document? And how to get these deleted Word documents back on Mac? OsiriX MD is the result of more than 5 years of research and development in digital imaging. It fully supports the DICOM standard for an easy integration in your workflow environment. It offers advanced post-processing techniques in 2D and 3D and a complete integration with any PACS, including the well known open-source project, dcm4chee. This program’s name will probably remind you of the Egyptian god of life, death and fertility, Osiris. In fact this application has something to do with all these matters, as it’s a medical tool to view scanned sections of the body.It is meant for professional users and while I doubt you have an x-ray machine or an electro-magnetic scanner in your bedroom, you might learn something by looking at the demos available. You actually have two very big samples to download, with lots of DICOM images (the standard for radiological and non-radiological medical images). What does it have this kind of image file more than a JPEG? You can see the picture in 3D, zoom in, discovering details, basically you can navigate within the picture, even turning it upside down if you wish. This gives you a perfect idea of the shape of human organs and could be useful for any science student or generally curious person.OsiriX is used by doctors and while they may find it fairly easy to use, non-professional users might find it intimidating and difficult understand at first. You might find it useful to quickly read the relative wiki to find more DICOM images to download and understand how to use the 4D functionality (a 3D image with a temporal event in it, like the heart beating). It’s not easy to view what you would like, unless you find an online source of DICOM images or you have your own magnetic resonance imaging machine. The human body is fascinating and OsiriX allows you to analyze it with 4D images that you can zoom in on and explore. It might be difficult though to find DICOM images which you are interested in.

Microsoft Intune is now able to provide 'conditional access' security compliance protections to Mac devices courtesy of a partnership between Microsoft and Jamf, a provider of management solutions for Apple devices. The Microsoft-Jamf collaboration brings together the conditional access policies of the Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) suite, as enabled through the Intune mobile management solution, in conjunction with Jamf Pro Mac management capabilities. Specifically, it requires the use Jamf Pro version 10.1. Last week, that this conditional access support for Macs has reached the 'general availability' stage, meaning that it's ready for use by organizations. Their initial collaboration had been announced. The conditional access scheme works when Macs are managed using Jamf Pro and registered with the Azure Active Directory identity and access management service. Jamf Pro inventory data gets shared under this scheme, permitting Microsoft Intune to perform a conditional access check before permitting end user to access an organization's resources. The conditional access policies get set by IT pros. They can ensure that Mac devices have up-to-date software, or that other security precautions are in place, before granting network access. The conditional access for Macs approach is shown in this diagram: [Click on image for larger view.] Microsoft Intune integration with Jamf management, adding conditional access support for Macs. If a Mac device is found to be noncompliant under this scheme, end users can be given a chance to use 'to fix any security issues,' according to the announcement. A of the conditional access approach suggested that it permits Macs to live in the Windows world as 'tier one' devices, with no fears when accessing 'Office 365 and other cloud and on-premises resources.'

Glad to hear that you’re having a good experience with Boot Camp.It’s pretty cool, as I explain here: Running Windows XP on your Mac with Boot Camp. I too noticed the same issue, however, and there’s a bit of a trick to getting it to boot into Mac OS X each time, rather than Windows. Repair windows 7 installation in Mac (bootcamp) Ask Question.

Boot Camp is a Mac OS X utility that lets you run Windows on your Mac without relying on virtual machines or crippled emulators. Boot Camp supports Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 (with OS X 10.6 or later). Boot Camp creates a Windows partition on your hard drive, along with the Mac OS partition. This means that none of your Mac content is touched at all, and Boot Camp has no effect on the operation of Mac OS. The process of running Boot Camp to install a Windows partition includes running a preparation utility on Mac OS (after backing everything up of course), creating the partition and installing Windows, and then selecting which OS to boot into every time the machine boots up. To select an OS during startup you simply hold down the Option key and select the startup disk you want. Boot Camp gives you full access to all the power your MacBook or iMac have to offer, including all RAM, multiple processors and cores, 3D graphics, and all the ports. Using your powerful Mac for both Mac OS and Windows used to require virtual devices, and while VMs have some advantages (allowing you to run both operating systems at the same time), for many users just being able to boot into either is all they want. Since Boot Camp is free, easy to install and use, and is supported by Apple, this is a winner of an app. Boot Camp enables you to install Windows on your Intel-based Mac computer, using a Microsoft Windows install disc that you provide. Windows is installed on its own partition. After installation, you can use either Windows or Mac OS X on your Mac computer. • The download file is a.zip file. Double click it to uncompress it. • Double-click the Boot Camp disk image. • Copy the entire contents of the.zip file to the root level of a USB flash drive or hard drive that is formatted with the FAT file system For detailed information about this update, please visit: • When running Windows, locate the Boot Camp folder on the USB media you created in Step 3 and double click to open it. • Double click on setup to start installing the Boot Camp Support Software. • When prompted to allow changes, click on Yes and follow the onscreen instructions. • Installation can take a few minutes. Don't interrupt the installation process. When installation is complete, click Finish in the dialog that appears. • A system restart dialog box appears. Click Yes to complete the installation. Avast and AVG are both decent options for antivirus apps for Mac. They both offer the basics, including system scans, protection from ransomware, and anti-malware functionality. You also get Wi-Fi security scans and more. The free version is fairly light. It scans your system and keeps you safe. It's more than adequate for most Mac owners. Those who go pro get another level of protection, but it also comes in a heavier package. Top 10 Best Mac Antivirus Software 2018 Compare some of the best virus protection services for Mac There is a common misconception that Mac computers are so secure that they don’t need antivirus protection, this however is not correct! We would recommend the free version to anybody, but we would say not to go pro unless you have a system with enough RAM and power to handle it without affecting your other tasks. Avast purchased AVG a couple of years ago, so we consider them basically the same company. Bitdefender is a popular and powerful option. It consistently scores very well on AV-TEST tests and it comes packed with features. The free version comes with a basic scanner and virus removal tool. Frankly, that should be good enough on its own for most people. Those who go pro get some additional features. They include multi-layer ransomware protection, adware protection, web browser protection, and more. The price is a little steep, but the yearly subscription covers three Mac devices. That's not a bad deal if you have two friends or family members that need protection as well. Kaspersky is another big name in antivirus apps. It also routinely scores well in testing and it has cheaper subscription options than most of its competitors. The free version is a little too light for our tastes. You can get more protection for free from Bitdefender. However, the premium version is decent. There are three tiers. The first comes with the basics along with online banking protection. The next tier adds support for your mobile devices and the last tier adds a kid mode, a password manager, and file protection. It's not a bad way to go. The $19.99 version is enough to protect you from basically everything. The rest of it might be a little overkill, though, unless you have kids. Malwarebytes has probably the most popular free antivirus app for Mac. It's super light, effective, and it works. The free version of Malwarebytes scans for and removes malware. It's super light and you hardly ever notice it running in the background. There are options for more device protection, though. The subscription version adds a bunch of features, including ransomware prevention, more comprehensive scanning, web browsing protection, and more. There is no functional difference between the $40 and $90 per year subscriptions. The $90 option just includes licenses for up to ten devices. Sophos is a fairly serious antivirus company. It has some intense and very powerful enterprise solutions for businesses. However, they do have a personal antivirus app for Mac as well. The free version is fantastic, actually. It comes with real-time protection, parental controls, web protection, and even some niche things like remote management. The pro version adds ransomware protection, better customer support, and some additional privacy protection features. Honestly, this is probably the best free antivirus for Mac that you can get. The premium version doesn't add enough to make it worth it, but it's also not half bad.
