Default Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Game Help PS3

In Oblivion i was at first happy when transformed into a vampire however the effects of this transformation soon started to slightly annoy me. Plenty of things are much easier for example new magic and strength but not being able to go out in the daylight makes selling and buying items at the shops rather difficult.

Is there any easy way to cure Vampirism? I was told to collect five grand soul gems but cant seem to find these anywhere Any idea's where to find these? Also i should probably mention Vincente from the black hand is dead so cant get Cure from him ...

Thanks for any help

There is a priest you can talk to to start the quest for the cure. After talking to him you will be directed to talk to several other people in succession before actually starting to look for the ingredients.

Seeing as you have been told about the gems you have already made it through the bit above, however. You can get them either by stealing them from the Mage's Guild or buy from them. Once you do have them go back to the witch and she will give you a grocery list of ingredients.

- 6 Garlic Cloves
- 2 Bloodgrass shoots
- 5 nightshade leaves
- Argonian Blood
- Ashes of a vampire

Garlic and bloodgrass are found easily. Nightshade can be found between Bravil and Skingrad as well as at the Arcane University. Argonian blood can be had easy as well, just do not get caught trying for it. Any Argorian stupid enough to be in the right place at the wrong time will do.

For the Vampire Dust, however, you must go to Red Water slough and find the vampire Hindaril. make your way through the dungeon here and kill him to get the dust.

Hello, just registered today.
Ive been having a rather anyoing problem with oblivion for my ps3. For some reason my draw distances for many objects like fences smaller rocks and light posts have suddenly become greatly reduced. I know this problem wasnt present when i first had the game. I first noticed it with the rocks and trees but now it has become much worse. while walking though an inclosed city i can see rock fences fade in and out as i get closer. And even the edges of fences apear as i get in closer rather than always being visble as before.

I havnt been able to find any options to change draw settings and have not found much information about draw distance problems elsewhere please help

I think the problem may be in the PS3 and not just the game. Have you noticed anything happening with other games?

only other game i have is rfom and havnt noticed anything with that, ive also had problems where the sound does work for a few seconds or until an enemy dies in oblivion. Just hear a load a bunch of load crunchy scratchy sounds.
Btw, might be a stupid question but does the color of the background when you start up have anything to do with the condition of the ps3?

That color change is normal- they have it change color going by time of day- that's why the background is usually black in the evening.

You may want to contact Sony or Bethesda,then- it sounds like you may have come across a defective copy of the game.

i have a problem involving the vampire cure quest. i have given all of the ingredients to the witch, except for bloodgrass. i have more than enough bloodgrass in my inventory, but whenever i talk to her about it, she just goes on about it being in the realm of oblivion. is this a glitch or is there a way around it?
i really dont want to stay as a vampire, and i am 40 hours into the game, so i dont really want to start again. can you help me please?

Hmm i think there is a glitch where if u dont give her the things in the right order she wont make the potion. You could try going back to a prev save game before u gave her, her last ingredant. Other than that u could try to talk to her while she is somwhere else, say outside her house or in her basement (yes its locked but ive got in it before)

Otherwise dont worry too much about it, to me 40 hours is nothing, plus its kinda refreshing to start over once u know what ur doing more

I don't think this particular game allows the use of multiple saves for one user. One alternate solution you could do is make another user on the PS3 and play under that- the saves are kept separate between users.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong but I believe they are in the main game automatically- you simply have to get to the right region. Haven't been able to find much from Bethesda's site about it- i'll do some more digging.

The Shivering Isles expansion should be triggered after having a day of rest- you find a note pinned to your door after a day has gone by in game.

I am having trouble with this game now..we have two save files..both with about fifteen hours of gameplay, we wiped everything else off of it (which was very little since it is BRAND new) and now once it gets to the loading screen for either save file, it freezes. We have tried everything...maybe it's just defective..but it was fine one minute and not the next. If you know any solution other than calling Sony or Bethesda...thank you!

Are both save files done under the same user profile? You may have to delete one of them and set up a second username for anyone else playing the game to save to.

The files are under two different profiles. His started working last night..but mine will not load. No matter how long we wait, it just sits at that load screen forever. And we never turned the game off without backing out properly, we never just shut it off...so we are kinda lost as to why this is happening. We were going to exchange the game, but now his file is working so we are wondering if it's not the game itself. HELP!

I haven't heard of any one else having this sort of problem. It's quite possible that, despite all efforts, the save file may have become slightly corrupted. You may have to delete your save and start over (not what you wanted to hear, I'm sure, having put 15 hours in already).

Unhappy Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Game Help PS3

My game also froze while it was loading. Tried everything, killing, stealing,sleeping. I'm trapped in a house and when I try to go back outside, the load stops 1/2 way and then that's it.
My husband plays on the same game (different name and character) and he can load all his stuff, no problem.
Then I tried loading an old save and it froze as well.
hhheeeellpp meeeee.

I'm afraid to say it but there may be no other option than to delete the save and start over. Your save may have been corrupted as well.
