Title: Oblivion help needed...
Post by: Dr_Avalanche on April 20, 2006, 01:46:25 PM
This should be a relatively simple one: What files do I need to copy where in order to transfer a save-game from one computer to another?

Just the save game folder for oblivion in your 'my documents' directory.  YOu really only need the save folder inside of it but just copy the whole thing it's easier.

Ok, thanks. My main game is on my laptop, and I suddenly realized (when I installed the game on the desktop) that there was all this dialogue that I had been missing out on - all dialogue that isn't subtitled doesn't appear on the laptop game, for some weird reason. Everything else runs just fine.

That's weird.  I seem to recal a setting to toggle subtitles so maybe that's all you've done on your laptop is turn that off.

I don't think so, but maybe turning them on will at least make it less of an annoyance, if I at least can see what they're saying, even if I can't hear it.

If you're talking about NPCs chatting with each others, then you only get the subtitles if you're nearby when they start talking (and the subtitles continue to be displayed until the conversation is over, even if you have moved out of hearing range, as long as you stay in the same cell).

Yeah, those are what I'm talking about. On the laptop though, I don't get the sound from them talking to each other, only the subtitles.

Oh that conversation.  I have a feeling it could be related to the lack of audio channels on the laptop.  I know at home the conversational sounds are positional so if I'm facing to the side, the sound comes from the side.  Could be the lack of positional sound on the laptop, but again just a guess.  May even be a performance tweak some where.

I doubt it's that, since virtually all sound in the game is positional (except the music I guess).

Like I said just grasping.  Though perhaps he's missing other sound and didn't notice it as well.
