Streamline v3.0
The Elder Scrolls IV - Oblivion
OPEN BETA 4 (RC2) - June 9th, 2007
===================================================================
Requirements
===================================================================
- Oblivion patch v1.1.511 or higher
- OBSE v0011 or higher (
http://obse.silverlock.org)
** If OBSE is not installed correctly or not running,
** Streamline will not start or may not run as it should.
===================================================================
Mod Description
===================================================================
Streamline is an "intelligent performance enhancement" mod. It
helps eliminate lag, smooths FPS (display) speed, and has many
other useful features like an automated rotating savegame system,
custom field-of-view, etc. It was originally developed as a
simple memory purge mod, and grew from there to an all-around
performance and utility mod.
===================================================================
Installation - Summary
===================================================================
- Backup your original Oblivion.ini file
- Extract archive contents directly to \data directory
- Rename old sl.ini if present and use new with or without edits
- Edit \data\Streamline\INI Files\sl.ini to set prefs (optional)
- Enable the esp and start Oblivion to initialize the mod
===================================================================
Installation - Detailed
===================================================================
- BACK UP YOUR OBLIVION.INI FILE!
Streamline's FPS smoother can and will make changes to the
visual settings entries in your ini. While not harmful, it
cannot restore your ini to the state it was in before you
installed Streamline. Making a backup is a very good idea.
The ini is located in this folder:
My Documents\My Games\Oblivion
- Extract the esp file and "Streamline" folder to your
\Oblivion\Data directory. If they are not both placed
there the mod will not run correctly. If you have used the
mod in the past, rename your old ini and use the new one in
it's place. You can edit the new one to update the values,
but it has been changed significantly since previous versions
and has a new structure.
- If you would like to use the auto-FOV feature, open the
Data\Streamline\Ini Files\sl.ini file and edit the slFOV
entry to reflect the correct FOV for your monitor. A 4:3
monitor needs 70-80, widescreen displays will need a
larger FOV number (90-110), or input whatever number you
would like to use. You can then edit the slFOVauto entry
to "1" to enable auto-FOV changes. If you would also like
FOV changes during conversation with NPCs, set the variable
named "SLv.FOVInDialogs" to 1.
- To enable the mod: launch the game, select Data Files and
enable Streamline 3.0.esp.
- **IMPORTANT** If you make changes to the sl.ini file after
you have installed the mod, you will need to re-init the
mod with the new ini values for them to take effect. You
can do this in the Streamline menu by choosing the
Special Actions Menu, and choosing the Re-Initialize option.
===================================================================
Default Hotkeys
===================================================================
- Streamline Main Menu: CTRL-home
- Perform purge: CTRL-del
- Perform save: F10
- Set max vLOD (detail): CTRL-]
- Set min vLOD (detail): CTRL-[
- Set auto vLOD (detail): CTRL-backspace
- Fine-tune vLOD up: CTRL-.
- Fine-tune vLOD down: CTRL-,
- Toggle Streampurge: ALT-p
- Toggle Streamsmooth: ALT-f
- Toggle music (delayed): CTRL-m
- Fast-Quit: (off by default, suggest CTRL-F12)
- Force Kill Corpses: CTRL-insert
Note: We recommend remapping the default Oblivion Quicksave key
to F10, and setting the Streamsave "Perform Save" key to F5. That
way when you hit F5 (which you may be accustomed to), the save
that is made is part of your Streamsave rotating savegame list.
It is perfectly safe to enable the Fast-Quit hotkey, as a save
is made immediately before the quit is processed.
===================================================================
Configuration
===================================================================
If you would like to change the default behavior of Streamline
and it's modules, you can open the ini file in:
\Data\Streamline\Ini Files\sl.ini
and make changes per the included notes.
To get more details on how certain features in Streamline work,
enter the game, you can use the [ Help ] button on ANY menu. You
can also choose the Special Actions Menu, and click on Streamline
Tome of Knowledge.
If you have questions about the mod or configuration options,
the Streamline [RELz] thread on the Official Forums is the best
place to try and get help. Please remember (this is important);
** If you have not read this readme, you will NOT get help
** on the official forums!
The mod is extremely flexible and powerful, and may seem
complicated to the first-time user. The sl.ini is meant to be
usable by beginners (the top section), and power users (the
top/bottom sections) depending on their needs. If something
doesn't make sense, just leave it as is.
===================================================================
Compatability
===================================================================
Streamline 3.0 has no known conflicts with normal mods. However,
you should not attempt to run this at the same time as another
cache clearing or FPS-altering mods, like HTF's PCB mod, or the
Nearly-Perfect-Frame-Rate-Optimizer. Doing so may cause stutter
and/or crashes.
===================================================================
Troubleshooting
===================================================================
If you think the mod isn't running as it should be, you can
enable debug messages that appear in the console. The easiest way
is editing the sl.ini file and setting the SLdebug entry to 1. You
can also do this via the Streamline menu in the "Main > Settings
> Miscellaneous" area. (Note: On by default for the Open Beta)
To view the messages, you need to open the console (` key), type
in "tdt" (no quotes), hit enter, then close the console (` key).
Messages will be displayed as Streamline runs in the lower left
corner.
