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 .
