I very much doubt it ... sorry buddy ... :(

Don't be put off though this game is incredible ... even if you have to turn things down I don't think you will be disappointed.

... and a new patch coming soon should help ... 8)

Well, i don't know about that. They have a X360 vs PC comparison and a Oblivion performance test at Gamespot in wich you can see really good what happens when you turn down the settings.
Especially when you turn down distant lands and viewing distance the game becomes incredibly foggy.

You can see for yourself over here and here.

Oh yeah ... I should have mentioned the fog ... sorry ...

But what I meant was that the gameplay is incredible and even if I had to have the fog I would still say it is a stunning game ... :wink:

Totally true. It really is a good game, but i can't stand bad looks when i know a game can look way better.
Therefore i just had to mention the fog. :D

No worries ... you were right to mention it ...

I hate the fog too ... but Oblivion with fog is better than no Oblivion at all ... :lol:

Hi everybody,

I'm a young newbie in widescreen games, so I have a question I didn't find the answer. Oblivion is 4/3 or 16/10 ratios compatible, but I wondered whether the game could run in a real 16/9 resolution (like 1280*720 or 1920*1080) as most videoprojectors display.

Thanks in advance :D,

Georges A.

It should support every resolution your gfx can output right of the box according to the devs.

Ok, thank you.

However, when launching the game, only the more usual resolutions are proposed in the "options" field : how could I do to set the resolution I want (1280*720) which isn't present in that usual resolutions list ?

Georges.

If the res can be used as a desktop res in Windows, it should be available in the res options of Oblivion... :)
