I'm level 32 and I can get chain staggered by a single enemy even when blocking with a shield. I love it when the game spawns 4+ monsters that can summon more monsters in the same room.
This mod fixes that, but you need to start a new game for it to work...

I'm experiencing the same thing. I'm the Archmage of the Mage's Guild and well through the Thieves' Guild, and I'm only level 6. Taeldian fucked around with this message on 03-27-2006 at 07:48 PM.

Buy or steal them from the mage's guilds.

I can't buy anything, I'm a vampire and trying to get the cure.
On that note, how do I get into the Mage Guild district of the Imperial City?

Get level 30 and they drop like candy. Although the only thing I'm finding in chests is gold.

There's a couple in the display cases in the mage's guilds.
You have to be a member of the mage's guild and complete the recommendation quests to enter that area.

In castle Chorrol I've tried to find the painting thief, and I'm sure it's the chick. But when I accuse her she says I have no evidence. I have talked to all the witnesses I'm supposed to and found the "Unusual Paining" in the bottom of the west tower and found the concealed paint supplies in her room. Is there something I'm missing?
Paint on carpet, in the floor of a room.
Check your quest log to figure out which room.

Sneak characters seem to level more slowly than Fighter-Mages. The 50% slowdown mod works great on my second Fighter-Mage, but it's a bit slow on my thiefly dude. Think i'll try notching it down to 25% on him.

Is it normal to crash to desktop about 40% of the time I load a savegame or enter a new area?
No.
But if you alt-tab while loading in any way, you'll crash hard. I've only up and crashed three times, but they were all in the same area, so I think it's just one specific file that got garbled during install.
It's not something people hear about.

Maradon! impressed everyone with:

Nope.
No crashes here.
Except that, for some odd reason, the game crashes when I shut it down sometimes.
But that's the only time the game has ever crashed for me, or my brother.
I'll frequently crash any time I'd normally go to a loading screen. If I crash when loading a save, the save will be corrupted and I will need to restore a previous save.

Well, first off, the game's installer can be buggy. Ick. I suggest backing up uncorrupt save games (they're in My Docs>My Games>Oblivion>Saves), and reinstalling the game. May fix the issue.
Or try some stuff listed here:
I'll keep looking around and post again if I find something that may help.
My suggestion: Take all of your saves out of your save folder, place one back in, load up the game, and see if you crash again.
'Nother link, see if something in there can help.
I'll look around a bit more in, say, 8 hours or so. Willias fucked around with this message on 03-28-2006 at 12:55 AM.

I've honestly never gone into an Oblivion Gate yet.
I've had this game since it came out, and since then I've just ran around for the most part, did all the misc quests in Chorrol, Skingrad, and Anvil, along with a couple in the Imperial City and the Arena quests.
I got my character to level 15 off of doing just that and a few dungeons, then downloaded the exp mod and started over.
And I KILLED THEM!!
This game is AWESOME

Well, got the game running (after doing a couple of INI tweakings and downloading stuff from the Oblivion forums). Too bad I can't advance past the monk's house now. The game crashes right when I try to go through the door.
You tweaked bDoSpecularPass didn't you?
Change it back to 1.

I lol'd at that for a good 3 or 4 minutes.
It depends on where you are in the main quest. After a certain point, there's a 10% chance, every time you enter a designated area, that a gate will appear. There just happen to be a whole crapload of these areas. Also, after another point in the quest, there will be a gate outside each major city (I'm not sure, but the Imperial City may be exempt from this, though I've seen 'random gates' by it).
And apparently I hit that 10% every time I feel like going on a dungeon crawl... the last 5 times I've gone hunting in ruins and such, a Gate's been nearby. Kinda annoyed me the last time it happened because a Scamp got a cheap-shot fireball in while I wasn't paying attention. ArchAngel fucked around with this message on 03-28-2006 at 03:42 AM.

Are the settings above and below it set to 1?
That seems to be what causes the majority of crashes when you enter Weynon Priory, if it ain't, then you have some weird crash problems. D:
Edit: I always misspell weird. :/ Willias fucked around with this message on 03-28-2006 at 12:22 PM.
Some other things that may have caused the Weynon Priory crash:
bForce1XShaders=0
bDoTexturePass=0
If any of those are set to 0, change em back to 1.
Your best bet is to revert the .ini file back to it's original state, then slowly retweak it to make sure you don't crash in Weynon. Willias fucked around with this message on 03-28-2006 at 12:36 PM.
