I have Oblivion. :D

I was hoping I could run it at full seeing as im above the minimum and recomended specs.

How come I can't? :mad:

Is it a badly written game engine or something?

Or is just my system is struggleing? :(
 
you need a pretty powerfull system to run Obv on full, just look at the FPS some of the top end cards pull off in their reviews in OC3D's review section. I do think there are Nvidia drivers designed for use with oblivion though
 
nVidia + Oblivion = bad FPS.

If you want good Oblivion performance you need a X19XXX card.

Even the uber high-end cards don't do as well

As Llwyd said I think pretty much all our card reviews feature Oblivion as a game test
 
Thank you for all your replys! :wavey:

I have ahd a lookie at the tweak guide and tweaked a few settings which has given me loads more FPS...

Is it true? Nvidia + Oblivion = rubbish? Damn!

Well I will never chnage to ATI.. :D EVIL! :nono:

Thank you again guys! Just looked at the reveiws and the 7900 looks good! ;)
 
I'm really surprised about posts like this.

I can run the game really well with my system specs (which I class as modest)

AMD 64/3000+

ASUS A8V Deluxe mobo

1Gb GeIL PC3200/DDR400 Dual Channel

Club 3D nVidia 6600GT/128

I'm running at 1024x768

High textures

View distance maxed out

Distant trees at max

All reflections enabled in the ini

I'm getting between 20-30 FPS when I'm in the Blackwood area and around 35-40 FPS inside buildings and towns.

What a lot of peeps do is try to use 2xAA or 4xAA at very high resolutions.

If your card supports it, try the 2xQAA setting. This gives a good AA without the performance hit.

The human eye can't even notice the difference above 30fps, lol.

i know thats what we're told but its honestly not true, i can notice my games at 60fps, its why our eyes hurt when looking at a 60Hz CRT monitor.
 
Maybe your eyes hurt when looking at a 60hz monitor, mine dont :p

Well I know I don't notice the difference after about 30, it's all butter from there.
 
20-30 frames out side? Christ! Im getting 30ish all the time... Well not inside that goes up to 100ISh...

But stilll.... :S
 
It's different from CSS as it's much slower. 20FPS and above is fine to play in Oblivion.

I play it at 1680 x 1050 on my 7900GTX and get over 30FPS :)

Damn!
 
Oblivion is a poorly written game tbh, it feels and acts similarly to Gothic (I think it was).

Some1 needs to give them a game engine.

Have to disagree there. Ive played through it 2 and 1/2 times now and the first time it only choked on full-full settings. Once tweeked (both settings and the config files) it ran at a fluid ~60fps. Its a fantastic game and many people waited for a long time for it, due to bethsada (sp prob) spending so much time polishing it. Its a very resource hungary game, so even in a year or twos time it will still challenge high end gaming rigs due to the open-aired nature of the game. Just as morrowind does now.
 
It's an awesome looking game with a demanding engine due to large distances and high details. I love it and it's awesome
