I found this bit of info on the official forums. I gave these tweaks a try and indeed did gain 5-10 FPS in the game. I am pretty sure that this is only going to net gains on multi-threaded compatible CPUs. First off, these tweaks are for your Oblivion.ini file in "My DocumentsMy GamesOblivion" NOT the Oblivion.ini in the game directory. Try changing these values: [OPENMP] iThreads=10 iOpenMPLevel=10 iPreloadSizeLimit=1000000000 I imagine you can test higher and lower values to try and tweak performance more, but I just did it exactly as stated above. It would be a good idea to back up you Oblivion.ini file before fiddling just in case. Apparently these tweaks were handed down from one of the developers. Good luck and I hope it helps some of you! |

I already tried this tweak ... thanks Gabbo ... 8) Unfortunately it didn't help me get rid of the jumps/stutters ... :( |

You've got jumps/stutters Paddy? That's not good. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that's not very good at all. Which system of yours are you playing it on? |

The FX-60 ... the frame rates are fine but it jumps and stutters ... even if I drop the res right down ... :? |

I love games that are highly tweakable. :twisted: Tweakable is fine, but requiring you to make tweaks and hacks to get a decent performance is just lazyness on the developer's side. I hope Bethesda's already working on a patch to make some tweaks for us. |

I did the tweaks and didn't see an improvement at my normal settings so just for kicks I turned on distant land, trees, etc and suffered no drop in frame rates at all. Steady 30 - 50 indoors and out accept in the battle at the end of the Paradise level. I had a signifigant drop there for a few seconds. |

Yeah ... but I do have the density of the grass tweaked down ... can't remember the setting in the config and I have just reinstalled windows so I don't have the game on the system at the moment ... :roll: |

I had the same problem until i maxed everything out.. although it was much worse on my X2 compared to this processor. I assume youve tried all the nvidia tweaks from the eldar scrolls forums already yeah? I hope they release a patch soon to fix all these issues people are having. |
