I appreciate all the support over the years. It was a heckuva project!
I cannot install this mod, and this is sad, bcoz it looks really exiting.
I have installed all OBSE-prerequirements, Oblivion reloaded 7.1, installing SDR and when game starts after loading in menu before i can even press "new" or "load" game crashes. Without SDR game looks fine, Idk, was used either BAIN or manual, may be i need to edit sdr.ini too?????
Looks like i am rly stupid, but i wanna try this mod out, and even w/o any other mods SDR and OR cannot handle smth.
Upd. SDR works good, but !!! when i enable Blindness Magic system in game tweaks.ini game crashes in menu before i even can press smth. Looks like Dynamic Detect Life Shaders system, Dynamic Night Eye Shaders system, Deafness Magic system, Muffle Magic system works great! But Blidness - causes issue.
How can i fix that???? ANy help plz
Interiors there were no performance problems, which is to be expected because of the smaller area and low population density. Exteriors were another problem altogether. Ultimately I found myself standing at the gates of Chorrol, and I did three different "measurements" with the same load game:
Without SDR active in any way shape or form: 32-35 fps
With SDR installed, but using only the Oblivion detection formula and suppressing SDR formula related scripts, features, and calculations: 22-25 fps
With SDR installed and everything turned on, using SDR's detection formula and all scripts running: 13-15 fps
NOTE: I did *not* have any of the performance enhancers installed like streamline, more heap, oblivion stutter remover, or the LLA4GB memory booster
So there you have it. Ultimately, SDR is just too heavy and complicated a mod to provide a benefit for folks who have heavy load orders. For those wondering why the beta version was smooth, it's probably because it was broken and a bunch of things that were supposed to be calculating/firing weren't.
My options are:
1. Upload the latest version and just let it be what it is, knowing that folks won't use it if they have a packed load order.
2. Pack it in all together and just not make the mod available.
3. Revamp the mod by pruning way back on the features that are probably having the most impact, as well as simplifying the SDR detection formula.
Of the three options, I don't have a lot of spare time to work on number 3, so odds are that could be many, many months away.
My load order used for testing:
Active Mod Files:
Nice to see you still work on this cool mod!
I think a revamp would be a good idea too. But maybe keep the "full" version available alongside the revamped. Give people a choice.
Thanks for keeping this mod alive.
....Really was looking forward to trying SDR out. The extensive list of features and changes are sweet.
Hoping for a lite version someday.
I tried teleporting to a cell I've never been to before and still had these issues. I apologize if there's something I'm doing wrong, but there shouldn't be any conflicts, I installed it with Wrye and have the required prerequisites installed.
Does anybody have a fix for the disappearing creature issue? A fresh save seems to help the game run as smoothly as possible, but I will still randomly be attacked by invisible actors in many places, so far only the wilderness no interiors.
I've tweaked the fatigue use and run speeds to find a balance between realism and gaming, but I noticed that animals don't follow the normal rules so wolves and deer for example can quite easily sprint themselves off a tiny little bump on the ground at 100kph and die from the landing. How can I adjust the movement speed for all creatures and not need to insert dozens of lines of code into the Creatures INI? A fast and easy fix would be to vastly improve the acrobatics of all fast creatures, so even though they never jump they can survive landing the frequent airborn events. This still doesn't fix the immersion breaking sprint speed of some animals.
I'm having an issue with Combat Hide as well. With Combat Hide enabled, enemies instantly stop fighting as soon as I walk into the shadows, or even behind obstructions like a coffin or table. It's rather strange having an enemy go back to idle as soon as they turn their back to me.
and i know it's the deafness effect beacuse sdr keeps turning off my subtitles
Also, even though you decided not to include Normal vs Vampire setting for Detect Life, it would make sense to add it so you could make vampires undetectable like in Skyrim.
I'm using RC3 and Oblivion Reloaded, and the Night Eye shader messes up the color of magic for some reason. Not sure if this is a problem with Oblivion Reloaded or the mod.
I'm not using any of the new spells/features (blind, muffle, etc.) and have them all turned off - that part works fine.
