Why would they do that? I'm not going to spent my money on that.

I'm talking about the region. Obviously it would have new quests and stuff.

They rewrote it, you know.

This game doesn't seem very similar to Morrowind at all IMO. It has a similar sense of exploration (which daggerfall had as well...) but everything else has been rewritten entirely from scratch. Morrowind had a very, very restrictive engine that was poorly designed and poorly optimized. Oblivion's is much better even if it seems to look the same from first glance.

NICE. If you don't like lockpicking or are getting angry with finding picks, go do the quest at Nocturne. Search on Gamefaqs under "Skeleton" so you can get results on a Skeleton Key query. Skeleton Key is an indestructible lockpick. After getting it, you're given a permanent +40 to Security. Fantastic tool. The quest to get it isn't too bad. Just try to be around level 10.

All the quests that involve speaking to these God/Goddess statues in the wilderness give fantastic rewards. This is my second one. Anyone know where some other statues like this exist? That give out quests, I mean.

Head to Leyawin, stay on the eastern side of the river, and walk north along the road. Watch your radar for a statue-site. There'll be three NPCs there and a small bridge leading to a bigass statue. Enjoy =D

Hey, maybe you should try that thing Chie was talking about.

Everytime I hear Leyawin it reminds me of some characterr or town in LOTRs. What am I thinking of?

Eowyn, probably.

Thanks for the skeleton key tip, I suck at lockpicking.

When do you hear the double click for lockpicking? I always hear a high-pitch click and then a lower pitch one. I don't get it.

on the xbox 360 I don't notice clicks, but maybe if I listen for it now I'll hear it. I just press A whenever the tumbler reaches the top at the exact moment.

It's the low click you hear. It's a low, slight double clink, and it implies the tumbler is going to stay up for maybe a full second instead of instantly dropping down.

Okay, so I royally fucked my Oblivion(the one in My Games and the /Oblivion directory) .ini files up, of course I didn't make a back-up. Can someone post the original file or just there's that actually works, I'm sad I'm addicted and now I can't even play.

This one works, but I did change some stuff via the tweaking. You may want to search "unloadcells" and change that back to a 0 if you aren't getting slightly lower performance playing over time. I changed that and it unloads a screen every two or three loads to keep my memory from being gobbled up and slowly killing my FPS. Not everyone seems to have this problem, and it causes more loading time because you have to reload everything so I figured I should mention it.

I heard that the game will make a new default ini if you delete the ini file and load your game.

taking nothing away from grawls and his friends guide, there is a guide on gamefaqs that covers lots of the main quest for those who want help, gives very good detailed walkthrough of most of them.

If you're referring to the one by A I e x then I can almost guarantee that it's quality. He writes good guides. I haven't encountered the need to use a good during any quests yet though. The marker and journal seem to give you all of the info that you need.

There's a mod team working on a Morrowind addition already, I don't know how far they are but they are certainly taking it seriously from what I've seen on their website. There are quest writers and everything. I for one certainly welcome (quality) additions to the landmass, not that the game is too small for me or anything.

Anyway! No more soup--forget the "no soup for you" hack, this is vastly superior. No water reflection bugs, no fps drop, no "bouncing bug". And best of all, no ugly gridding, and no blurry crap either. <3

I got a full daedric set last night finally. I still am not very far in the main quest at all, but IMO it's a lot more fun to do the other stuff first.

Currently level 31 imperial.

Okay, need some help, again.
I'm doing a Fighter's Guild quest,
Spoiler:
where I have to destroy a machine creating Hirst Sap or something like that. It's the stuff that causes you to kill everyone at Water's Edge. The problem is, that I can't figure out how to destroy that machine.

Any help?

Grab the two lose pipes (put them in your inventory - yes it'll fit) and then simple use the wheels you see. After that you can beat Maglir =3
