Tribunal/Bloodmoon can't be accessed[edit]
I have installed and re-installed Tribunal and Bloodmoon, and they come up in the game "start" menu, but the only game I can actually get to play is Morrowind.(I can not highlight any of them and -play- only loads Morrowind) I don't have the extended map. All I have is Vardenfel and Solstein (which I can't find anything about in these pages.) I have finished the Nererverine quest and want to -go further-. — Unsigned comment by 24.236.239.29 (talk)

Appropriate content for discuss pages.[edit]
Generally, discussion pages seem to (fittingly) discuss what content should be on the page it's connected to. However,(as in the case of pages like OblivionTalk:Thieves Guild) some discussion pages look more like message boards with people asking questions and sharing game annoyances. My question is: What is appropriate content for discussion pages? — Unsigned comment by 4.233.173.164 (talk)

How do I reply?[edit]
I just got an account and i know how to post comments on talk pages, but i dont know how to reply to other people's comments. I also dont know how to reply to someone who replied to my comment.Amantius Allectus 22:04, 29 July 2008 (EDT)
- Basically, you reply the same way that you post a commment: you edit the page and add the text you want to the page. So, for example, when reading this discussion, you should see an "edit" link on the right-hand side of the page, to the right of the "How do I reply?" header. Clicking that "edit" link will open up just this one discussion in an edit window. Add whatever new text you want at the bottom, after everybody else's comments. The only small difference with replying is that you should indent your reply so it looks different from the original question. You indent by just adding a colon (:) at the start of your response. If you look at this in an edit window, you'll see that my text starts ":Basically" -- that's the colon that indents my reply. If you wanted to reply to my reply, just use one more colon so your reply is indented one step further. Does that help? --NepheleTalk 23:54, 29 July 2008 (EDT)

Bad Oblivion construction set File[edit]
I downloaded the Oblivion construction set from www.elderscrolls.com and the update patch. When I open construction set theres no problem initally, but when I want to preview something like an animation it crashes. Also some cells crash when I bring them up in the render window, I can't use find, and when i try to use search and replace muliple errors comes up and it crashes. I've reinstalled it but the same thing happens. I'm using Vista and tried the construction set with without compatibility state and tried it with windows XP compatibility state, but theres no diffrerence. When I dragged the file to WinRAR it said the file was of unknown type or damaged. Can someone Tell me what to do to fix this. Or at least give me a link to a website that has a good Oblivion contruction file for download? Jagar Tharn

- Do you mean, this quest? If so, then the effects you need are Fire Damage, Frost Damage, Damage Magicka, and Fortify Magicka.
- For information on where to find these effects, click on one the links under "availablity", in the box on each of the effects articles. - Game LordTalk|Contribs 16:03, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

Lost item to respawning chest[edit]
Oblivion Deepscorn Hollow[edit]
I have just completed the Vampire Cure quest and the argonian assistant of the count is still in Deepscorn Hollow. I cannot get her to move and she is acting very glitchy. I am playing on a 360 and I also used her for the argonian blood with the enchanted dagger. Is that the reason she is laggy and glitching. She just tells me to follow her to the count.

Help! Oblivion keeps crashing![edit]

Thanks so much! — Unsigned comment by 220.253.103.120 (talk) on 1 April 2010
- Simple solution is: get rid of the mods. Otherwise try to check if any of your previous ones specifically conflict with the new ones. Better still, ask this question to the actual creators of the mods. --SerCenKing Talk 15:32, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

No magika buff for being a high elf[edit]
okay so when i started out as my high mage and mage birthsign i had a +150 magika buff. i just realized i no longer have that buff in my active effects so my magika is way lower than it should be. i don't know if this is a bug or i did something to lose it. i have no diseases but i did just finish all of the daedric shrines quests, if that would do anything.

Rebuilding the Gatekeeper glitch?[edit]
ok, so when i first came to the Fringe, I wandered around and accidentally found all the items that Relmyna Veremin needed to rebuild the Gatekeeper before I'd even met her. I continued all along, until i finally met Sheogorath and he asked me to rebuild the gatekeeper. Since I already had all the ingrediants to begin with, all the journals were out of order and it was telling me to go see Relmyna. So I did and she refused to say anything to me except for Rumors or Passwell. I used the SetStage cheat to make it go forward, and this seemed to help, for i then was able to collect all the body parts for the Gatekeeper. I went back to Relmyna and she said to meet me at the statue of Sheogorath. I did and she NEVER showed up. EVER!! i waited, and waited and waited. So I tried the SetSTage cheat again and was able to get thru all the steps without EVER seeing ANY of the ritual or dropping any of the body parts, (it wouldnt let me since they were quest items.) and there never was a Ritual table. So I had to SetSTage cheat through the whole thing then report back to Sheogorath. When I did he congradulated me on a good job, then when he stopped speaking i found myself with NO menu's and i could NOT move at all. Anyone have any idea as to how to fix this problem? I'm at my wits end and can't progress in the game at all until this is fixed! Please help! 50.55.74.0 23:40, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Shader Effects[edit]
Hi, I was just wondering if someone could possibly show me all the Shader Effects? I've been looking for Shader Effects that can be used on a Player Character but I can't seem to find any anywhere, if someone could list them and their names (What effect they were maybe used for such as Fire Damage or Frost Damage etc) it would be much appreciated! The only two I could find were the Ayleid Guardian Shader Effect and the Ghost Shader Effect but apart from them I'm having no luck so as I said if someone could list all of the Shader Effects I would be very thankful. Basically what I'm looking for is Shader Effect ID's Thanks Again. :) EDIT: Ones that can be used with the PMS Command. 2.127.97.114 00:40, 31 July 2011 (UTC) Matt

Problem help.[edit]
On my Xbox 360 for the game Oblivion I have 3 problems.
1. I cannot open doors or gates or display cases.
2. I am getting lights that stay on the screen when I use magic blasts.
3. I have lights that encircle my character. It is so bad that when they are around the head of my character, I cannot see in first person view.
Please help. I simply love the game and would not like to have to discontinue where I have gotten in the game. I am now Arch Mage and Champion of Cyrodiil.
One other item,
Is there a way to copy where I am externally from my Xbox 360 game system?
My email is Liftoff1@cfl.rr.com.
184.88.12.130 13:38, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- The first three items are all symptoms of the now-infamous Abomb bug. We have a brief description of it here, but since this is the third time I've come across this subject in as many days, I did some Googling and found a forum post that discusses the issue in a bit more detail: Old news, but fairly under the rader; Oblivion's "Abomb" glitch.
- As you can see in that thread, there is absolutely no fix on the Xbox, and Bethesda seems to have no intention of ever fixing the issue. The only "workaround" is to start a new character and not play the game for quite as long.
- As for getting your saved games off of the 360, you'd be better off asking in an Xbox 360 forum. – Robin Hood↝talk 19:38, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
-
- I can't help with the glitch BUT for saving data to an external device, you can either use an xbox 360 memory unit,or, like me you can use any USB memory stick, make sure you don't have anything you want to keep on it. A full explanation of how to do this (and transfer all your save data onto the memory stick, see the link) [1] Although this is not the newest version of the xbox firmware but the process is essentially the same :) --Durnik125 (talk) 23:53, 21 February 2013 (GMT)

- This is a well-known glitch with the Mystic Emporium. Just unlock the door via spells or lockpicking, as noted on the place page:
- "You can unlock the door (using spells or lockpicking), at which point entering the store is not considered to be trespassing (although the act of unlocking the door will still place a bounty on you). At 8 pm every night Calindil will relock the door; he will try to kick you out of the store if you are there at closing time (although after he has locked the door he doesn't care if you reenter). If you don't want to keep on unlocking the door every time, then get inside and unlock the door to the private quarters. This should solve the problem of the main door being locked during the day."
- There is more detailed information in the Bugs section of the page, see here. Hope this helps! — ABCface◥ 05:21, 8 June 2013 (GMT)
Is a forward power attack considered the same as a "standing power attack"?[edit]

Licensing[edit]
Some time ago I uploaded two maps depicting all know Dwemer and Ayleid ruins, which can be seen on my userpage. In these maps I used the Tamriel map from TES Anthology found on TIL as a background. I chose the standard license for Bethesda content when uploading. My question is: if the background comes from TIL, then is it okay to upload those maps with that license, or do I have to make my own scan of the map (which I can do), replace the one from TIL and update the files? -Vordur Steel-Hammer2 (talk) 22:47, 18 September 2014 (GMT)

Remove an account[edit]
I think I made a mistake when I recently created a login for editing some pages. It is a very very good site indeed and it is my main source of information for the Elder Scrolls since Battlespire, but joining has proved discouraging to me (not sure if my English is ok). Rather than having quickly a sleeping account, with login/password exposed to pirates, I would like to fully erase my profile. How can I do ? --Jprc (talk) 08:10, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if you feel like you've had a bad time so far, the ways of each wiki differ from each other and it can take time to become accustomed to them before you feel at home. Wiki's do not delete accounts as they are tied to the edits they have made. You can, however, ask an admin to make you "disappear" by renaming your account, and you can then use a random password generator to put a new one on your account and then not remember it. This can be done by asking on the Administrator Noticeboard if you are truly intending to leave and do not change your mind about staying. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 17:48, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Much of the content is not viewable (though many other parts such as NPC general descriptions read normally), with red HTML tags links such as, from simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblivion:Mirabelle_Monet: Template:#local:GameHeader Template:#local:GameHeader Template:#local:GameMain Template:#local:GameMain Template:#local:GameServices Template:#local:GameServices Template:#local:GameOtherInfo Template:#local:GameOtherInfo Template:#local:lorelink Template:#local:healthMagickaColumn Template:#local:dohealth Template:#local:healthMagickaColumn Template:#local:healthMagickaRow Template:#local:pageexists Template:#save:titlename

to the URL to do something similar. —Dillonn241 (talk) 06:52, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

- Null edits are not required for new links to show, though they can take up to two days to appear. Another easy way to force a link to show is to refresh your page while bypassing the cache. Though bypassing cache and purging are not always consistent for forcing a page update, unlike making a null edit which should be your last recourse.

Making an account[edit]
I've tried to make an account for 2 days and everytime i do it says "Visitors to this wiki using your IP address have created 1 account in the last day, which is the maximum allowed in this time period. As a result, visitors using this IP address cannot create any more accounts at the moment" But i've never even visited this site before. Is there any way i can fix this? — Unsigned comment by 78.20.51.237 (talk) at 23:32 on 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- I've moved your request to the Administrator Noticeboard as it will likely be noticed and acted upon much sooner there. — Wolfborn↝(Howl) 00:28, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
Map Links[edit]
Where can I find info about adding map links to the pages? I know I have seen it here but I can't search for it nor it's available at the help pages. I remember I tried to add a map link using coordinates but could not get it to work, can anyone show me how to do it?
I keep getting logged out of UESP...[edit]
Hello. First off, I apologize if this is not the right place to post this. But hopefully I can get some help with this.
As the section subject indicates, I keep getting logged out of UESP. This is problematic for a number of reasons, but primarily it is making it extremely difficult for me to use the Build Editor because I can't save or edit builds if I am not logged in and I keep getting automatically logged out every 2-5 minutes. I have tried this on OperaGX and also on MS Edge. On OperaGX it won't log me in at all -- no error; just acts as though it has logged me in and returns me to the page I was previously on, but leaves me logged out. On MS Edge I can at least log in for a few minutes at a time, but it automatically logs me out, without any notice, and if I haven't completed what I was working on and saved it before I get logged out, I have to re-do all of my work and hope that I can get it done and saved fast enough that it allows me to save it before I get logged out again. For example, even just posting this message I had to type it up in a text editor, then come here on UESP, log in, paste this message, and post it right away just to make sure it actually would be posted.
I would very much appreciate it if someone could help me with this. I have, on both browsers, disabled my main security, privacy, and anonymity addons, but even with that I still get logged out all of the time. It is still possible that an addon is causing interference of some kind, but I'm not sure what might be causing it. If someone can offer any suggestions or insight, I would appreciate it. In the meantime, I am going to try other browsers (with and without addons) and see if I can get a long-term login to remain stable on one of them. This will include attempts with Ghostery Dawn, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and possibly Brave (we'll see about that one, as I'm not sure at the moment that I even have it installed).
Thanks in advance, and if this should be posted somewhere else, please let me know.

- Update... I have tried a number of configurations and browsers, and clean profiles without any addons seem to work fine, so it is definitely an issue of addon interference. Now I have to figure out which addon(s) is causing the problem. If anyone happens to know of specific addons that have caused this problem, that information would help me narrow it down faster. In the meantime, I'll be trying to figure out which of my particular set of addons are the culprit(s). Thanks. EntropicLynx (talk) 21:00, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
- It sounds to me like cookies aren't getting saved properly, although it could also be something that alters HTML parsing, like an ad blocker or CSS injector of some kind. I think the latter two are much less likely, though, so if you have anything that might alter how/when cookies are being saved, that would be the first thing I'd look at. If you figure it out, please let us know...we can use that info to help other people in the future. – Robin Hood (talk) 21:16, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
Samples[edit]
the idear or logic off "Samples" is not discussed or explained afaik its the fixed amount off materials but sets the maximum off possibilties aswell, but not all are a fixed number.its a wiki explain and not a game explain, should it have a page for it? — Unsigned comment by 85.149.83.125 (talk) at 10:18 on 21 June 2024
- I'm not sure what you mean. Are you referring to the use of the word "samples" when the wiki talks about alchemical ingredients? Either way, this would be a question better asked on Discord or a more specific wiki page. —Dillonn241 (talk) 06:38, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- Hello 333dragonb0rned. On UESP, we like to hand out cookies and stars. See UESPWiki:Prizes. I like the idea of that extension but overall it feels out of place and less meaningful than a few sentences in a Cookie template. —Dillonn241 (talk) 06:38, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
