Re: The Oblivion Thread!

I got Shivering Isles (PC) the other day and I managed to install it correctly and everything, BUT I get giant yellow exclamation signs in just random places (mostly places where I have stepped but sometimes somewhere else) and the longer I play the more appear. Also I am using like 20 mods which is probably the problem, but I love them sooo much. I read on the Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul mod page faq that there is a problem VERY similar to mine that makes the signs instead of NPCs, but mine just appear anywhere, and I have tried running Oblivion without OOO and it didn't help. Also I have a weird sky...
It seems to have been a problem only since I installed PJ's Spell Compendium mod but I have tried running it without that as well. I have also reinstalled it several times.

I will keep trying to figure it out though.

EDIT: Nevermind I just had to uninstall and then delete the directory, including all my mods Oh well, at least I can play the game...

Mods are a blessing and a curse. Especially in Morrowind. After experimenting with a few mods of my own, the whole game takes a nosedive into bizarreness. I can't even explain what goes on in the game any more. I can honestly say that Oblivion mods are generally more professional and well done, though any mod, great or small, can have major glitches and problems.

Where the fark is the Garden of Dareloth? I need to find it because I failed the first Thieves Guild Quest, and I need to talk to that one guy to see if I can get back in...

His name isnt Armand Christophe is it?

If so then its in The Imperial City Waterfront district its like a little beggar town part near the water and you have to go just outside the city wall and sharp left at around midnight.

Re: The Oblivion Thread!

Okay, that worked. But now I need to find the damn sword he wants me to steal. I'm following the waypoints but it just brings me to this place with a stone overhang. There are no doors, ladders, or basements. What do I do???

Make sure you have brought some lock picks first Christophe sells them for 5 gold each

Bribe a beggar to tell you about Rohssan and they will tell you that they run the armory (A Fighting Chance) on the east side of the market. The sword is in the chest in Rohssans upstairs quarters and you will have to pick some locks and deal with a guard dog but thats all.

Re: The Oblivion Thread!

Thanks to Matt (he's good for something after all, besides sitting on our sofa, cursing and talking about who's face he smashed in last night ) I now know how to respawn hundreds of small but expensive items to sell on for a tidy sum...but I'm guessing you all know about these sorts of glitches, so shan't bore you with the details...I'm happy though


Don't like Umbra though...she's mean...

HE WON'T LEAVE MY HOUSE!!!! IT'S BEEN ABOUT SIX HOURS NOW!!!!

Back on topic...have you done the Seeking Your Roots quest? I've got to find about 20 more Nirnroot and am struggling to find more. I've nicked loads from the houses in Pell's Gate and around the water's edge...but it's proving quite tricky now.

Also, the folorn watchman thingy - you don't get to open the chest, do you? the one on the map the dead guy gives you?

The nirnroot quest follows you through the game its like an ongoing quest, and im not sure what quest you are referring to on the 2nd one...

Re: The Oblivion Thread!

It's the Forlorn Watchman who is linked to the shipwreck over at the Panther Mouth or whatever it's called...you have to release his skeleton and kill the ghost of the traitor who murdered him. In return, he gives you a treasure map and underwater you'll find a treasure chest but you never seem to open it or get any treasure...or even have it added to your inventory...I'm wondering if I screwed up somehow...

From what i remember the main chest is sandwiched between 4 rocks just south of a small dock and has some nice loot in it. It doesnt show up on the compass but if you follow the river along you will find it.

Yeah the book is the first quest, if you fail to get there before the woman you have a 2nd chance by getting the sword instead.
