&#10240;

### PREREQUISITES

-  Run the game once to establish your INI files.   Select Options, then choose the "**Ultra High**" preset.  Finally, adjust the Resolution for your monitor.

-  I strongly recommend installing Oblivion on a SSD drive to reduce stuttering.

&#10240;

### FIRST-TIME INSTALLATION



INSTALLATION TIP: I strongly recommend installation during they day and avoiding evening hours US time.  The Next site is busiest during this period and you're likely to encounter stuck downloads, failed to install dependency errors, and other issues.

1.  Install Oblivion Script Extender (xOBSE) with Vortex before continuing.
2.  Go to the Profiles section in Vortex and select "Add Oblivion Profile," add a name.

-  Check the option "This profile has its own game settings."
-  Save the profile, then select Enable.

3. Select "Plugins" within Vortex and enable all 10 DLC.  

4. At the Next site, click Add To Vortex for the collection.  Select the profile you created in Step 1 to install into.   ***Do Not*** attempt to utilize the option to create a new profile when prompted.

5. Run the 4GB RAM Patcher Tool in your dashboard.  Select the "Oblivion.exe" file from the displayed window, then Open.  Click Ok again to close the window it opens.

6. Steam users should run the game through the normal Steam launcher. 

NOTE: If you encounter any issues after installation please see the Troubleshooting section.

### UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS REVISION

1.  At the Next site, click Add To Vortex for the collection.  Select the profile you created previously for Oblivion Rebirth+ when prompted.

2. After the collection is installed, select Purge Mods, then Deploy Mods, in the Mods section of Vortex to remove error messages caused by earlier revisions.

3. Ensure xOBSE is installed by Vortex or manually from [here](https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/37952?tab=description), or just exit vortex and restart and you will be prompted to install.

4. Steam users should run the game through the normal Steam launcher. 

5.  Check the Changelog to determine if a new game is required.

&#10240;

### REMOVING NUDITY FROM COLLECTION

1.   To disable the nude bodies in the collection simply disable the mod "SR-OCOv2 Nudes" in Vortex and click Deploy Changes.

# Troubleshooting

***Errors Encountered After Installation or Stuck Downloads During Installation or Failed to Receive "Installation Complete" Message*** - Any of these scenarios indicate Vortex did not install the collection correctly.  Ensure you do not have any mods outside of the collection installed, then perform the following steps to reinstall the installation:

- Remove the collection from within the Vortex Collections section.  When prompted, select to delete the mods but keep the archive to prevent having to re-download the collection.
- Go to the Next site and click Add to Vortex.  Once reinstallation has completed, check your Plugins section to ensure they are all enabled.

***Unable to Run 4GB Ram Patcher Tool***   - The dashboard icon assumes Oblivion is installed on your C:\ by default.  If you have installed Oblivion on a different drive partition edit the tool and change the path appropriately.

***Steam Application Error 5*** - An error from Steam generally caused by having your Oblivion game installed on a different drive partition from Steam.  I recommend reinstalling Steam onto the same drive partition as Oblivion, and *not* within the c:\program files (x86) directory.  Alternatively, for a quick fix, copy the steam.exe file to the root of your Oblivion game folder.

***Game crashes at Startup*** - Oblivion may have incorrectly setup your oblivion.ini file.  Go to \documents\my games\oblivion and delete the oblivion.ini file.  Run the game normally, set your graphics per the Prerequisites section, and confirm you can reach the main menu.  If successful, exit and go to the Mods section of Vortex.  Double click the "Oblivion Rebirth" mod to open the settings panel and scroll down to the Ini Tweaks section.  Unselect then Select each INI setting.  Click Deploy when finished.

If this does not correct the issue, you may be experiencing issues with the Knights Unofficial Patch mod.  Perform the following steps:

1. Disable "knights unofficial patch.esp" in your Vortex Plugins section.
2. Disable "Compatibility Patch for Unofficial Knights Patch," “Oblivion Content Restoration Project - Knights,” and "Balanced NPC Level Cap - DLC Patches" in your Vortex Mods section, click deploy mods, then restart the game.

***The User Interface Shows Game Controller Buttons Not Keyboard Controls*** - Most likely the NorthernUI mod detected a gamepad connected to your PC and automatically converted from keyboard/mouse to game controller control.  Perform the following steps to convert back to keyboard:

1. Enter the system menu and select Options, then NorthernUI.
2. Disable the setting for "Xbox Gamepad Controls".
3. Click the return button at the bottom of the screen.

# Configuring Xbox Gamepad Support

The collection includes the NorthernUI user interface providing support for most of the game functions needed to play using a game controller.  However, you will need to configure hotkeys using the NorthernUI Hotkeys OBSE mod as follows:

1. To assign a hotkey: Select an inventory item, hold the Y key (triangle), then press the D-pad direction of the hotkey desired.
2. To use a hotkey: Press the appropriate D-pad directional.

The collection is also designed to provide 4 additional hotkey slots.  To configure them:

1. To assign the extra slots: Select the inventory item.  Hold the right bumper and the Y key (triange), then press the D-pad direction of the desired hotkey.
2. To use the extra slots: Hold the left bumper, then press the appropriate D-pad direction.

PLEASE NOTE: when pressing the right bumper in the inventory menu you will tab to the next menu over.  Simply continue holding the right bumper and use your directional keys (trigger or D-pad) to move the tab back to the inventory tab desired to highlight the item).
