Description: Completely edited Oblivion.ini file that's now optimized
specifically for performance. This has taken me hours and this is the
only thing that I could find that works without adding mods.
This will give you a playable framerate even if you're using
integrated graphics.

Credits: I'd like to give thanks to everyone that has downloaded my file.
Hopefully this has helped you as it has helped me play this game. I have a
Mobile Intel (R) 4 Family Express Chipset with an
Intel (R) Core 2 Duo T6500 @2.10 Ghz and I am able to play this game at 30FPS.
Originally (with no mods), I could only run this at 9 FPS. With mods, I was able
to run it at 15 FPS. Without mods and with this INI tweak I am able to run it at
20-30 FPS. I have not tested this with mods, so I will not be able to give an FPS
benchmark for this.


INI Edits: Basically, I've removed shadows and lowered the textures of grass and
trees. I've lowered the quality of landlod and waterlod.
Since I'm unable to remove shadows completely, I had only removed
the actor shadows, diffusepass and drawshadows.
I disabled maxlandscapetextures and fullbrightlighting and
dynamicwindowlighting. There are so many things I've disabled and just way too
much to list.

Update 2: Removed grass shaders and hair shaders.

Update 3: Removed grass and trees. The landscape will now look depressingly
barren, but hopefully it increases performance. I've also removed video loading
so now load screens will load faster by just a bit.

Update 4: Wasn't able to remove rocks and anything else useless, but I was
able to increase performance and increase quality. I have removed water shadows
and landscape shadows so the landscape will look low quality, but it's actually
set to it's max size. If you don't want it at its max size and want a better
FPS, I'll leave it up to you. I have set the filtering to x16 as well.


Update 5: Re-enabled trees, re-enabled distancelod and disabled grass. Don't
bother changing tree distance, it won't change their distance at all. It
shouldn't really affect performance too much, but overall it will make the
landscape look less barren. You're welcome!

Future update: Possibly won't have one. This has been a great experience and I
plan to do this will Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Skyrim.
