User talk:Bippo Ernesti/Archive1

Welcome!
Welcome to OblivioWiki Bippo Ernesti! Thank you for your contributions so far, keep them coming. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask here or on my talk page. \*\ Hellhound43 08:02, 5 July 2007 (CDT)

Admin Status
Hey Bippo, Spec and I were thinking we should promote another Sysop to administrate the wiki. Are you interested? You'll have a little more power in being able to delete articles and edit the main page. \*\ Hellhound43 15:49, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Wow, I wasn't expecting such an honor. This is a pretty big thing, and I wasn't expecting this kind of an offer anytime soon. I'd be glad to accept this promotion, though there are some fears I have about this, the biggest one being that I might still be somewhat unexperienced. --Bippo Ernesti 15:58, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about it, your at about the same stage I was when Spec promoted me. The main reason we are promoting you is because you've been around a lot lately, and it's best to have someone online pretty much all the time. I'll still be on every day for a while, so you can ask me any questions you have an get an answer quickly. For me, it's just when I finally get a job I won't be on as often. Spec is still on occasionally too, but he's busy with College until December. Anyway, I'll let Spec know your answer so he can promote you. \*\ Hellhound43 16:03, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay, I'm still quite shocked about this. Thank you! --Bippo Ernesti 16:09, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, and I forgot to mention, you'll also have banhammer privileges! ;-) Your welcome, Bippo. Also, if you like you can add me on MSN Messenger, might make it easier to ask me questions if you have any and discuss the wiki, which we will probably be doing often. My address is hellhound432 at hotmail dot com. \*\ Hellhound43 16:12, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Good going but you haven't even finished Oblivion and you still are asking questions. Must be nice to be one of the elite!


 * I'll add you on Messenger, but I must warn you that my names and avatars can be quite odd. --Bippo Ernesti 16:30, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * That's ok, so can mine :-P, well actually my name stays the same lol. \*\ Hellhound43 16:33, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Promoted and all done! Hopefully I did it right. Congratulations and glad to have you onboard! --theSpectator talk 02:23, 19 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Wow, thank you Spec, and Hellhound43. --Bippo Ernesti 11:58, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Good going but you haven't even finished Oblivion and you still are asking questions. Must be nice to be one of the elite! Ask enough question and what you get promoted? I have finished Morrowind, Oblivion and Shivering Isles and the side quests. Just because I haven't updated anything doesn't mean I couldn't. I just am not really sure how to do it. I Really get confused when it comes to this is a new page and what to do. You are so smart show me how and maybe I can get promoted. Miss annoyance. I'll watch for a reply. Just so you know I started over because I was told once by Hellhound43 you shouldn't go past 5 colons before starting again. I Have a habit of forgetting to put in the colons at all. I started over here because you were already at 8 colons.Midnight Mia 05:10, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Good job!
I never have any cleaning up to do around here anymore - good job! Thanks for all your hard work. --avfanatic 16:46, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Heh, thanks. I just happen to have a lot of spare time, so I spend quite a lot of the time here. --Bippo Ernesti 16:55, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi, why did you delete my stuff in my discussion page.


 * I apologize, but it seems unreasonable to advertise a game on a Wiki that has nothing to do with the game. --Bippo Ernesti 12:02, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

lol...Molotov 22:53, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder :)
Hey,

I thought I removed that message from all the gamewikis sites. Must be getting sloppy... Thanks for the reminder. ;)

Best regards, TOR 11:23, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello!
Thanks for the welcome (on my talk page). I was thinking that I should say 'Hi'! ... Especially since this has become "obliviowiki, by Bippo Ernesti", if the Recent Changes listings are any indication! ;-) Best regards, - Laisren 09:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Heh, well I do edits now and then, when I find time. Hellhound43 and theSpectator are currently quite busy with their real-life stuff, so they aren't spending as much time contributing minor edits like I do, when they do stuff, they do a bit more important, like reverting vandalism and blocking vandals, as well as some big edits every now and then. --Bippo Ernesti 09:55, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Editing Help
how do you mkae a vertical line --Mastermj61 00:42, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * P.S Hi i just joined yesterday and have been helping a lot


 * I am aware of your constructive edits on the Shivering Isles content. I do not know what kind of a line you are asking me about, if you have seen one on an article, put the link here to show me where you have seen a vertical line. I only know how to make a horizontal, which can be created by adding four lines, like so:



Battle
Man, I missed the battle; talk about wielding the mighty ban-hammer. Nice job Bippo; must've been quite annoying (and Volanaro too, thanks for the heads up). Perhaps next time I can flex my muscles. --theSpectator talk 17:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks, it was, though I didn't have much to do other than to ban the vandals. Volanaro did most of the reverts. --Bippo Ernesti 17:40, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Just so's you know, i sit next to those idiots in ICT at school most of the time so i can see exactly what they're doing, usually it's just a case of keeping the nonsense under control until an admin comes online, you can find out a it more about this issue on my page at uesp.net (i'm guessing that's you i've seen with the same username) Volanaro 18:19, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, the user on UESP by the same name is mine, I guess I should mention that on my userpage, seeing that I've already mentioned a bunch of other ones. --Bippo Ernesti 19:24, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

PLEASE HELP ME its important
realy need help soon so i will know wether or not to get a nother house

i realy want to by the house in skingrad but i think i found a bug

the bug is that in a quest for the thieves guild were you need to get the prisoner out of jail because he knows were a book is your told from a prisoner that a pale lady took him and long story short the pale lady (she is a vampire) killed the guy that sells you the house

i need to know if there is a id key for the key so i can drop the gold and use the cheat for the key

if there is an id key for this item please tell me on this page and if you know how to findout what it is or know what it is please tell me


 * You can get the key called "My Skingrad House Key" by opening the console window and typing "Player.AddItem 0004ED89 1" without the quotes. If you want to make the quest continue, open the console and type "setstage HouseSkingrad 10" without the quotes, the quest should now update and your journal should say "I just bought a house in Skingrad. It's just inside the main gate, next to the bridge that leads to the Chapel." After this, you should try entering the Rosethorn Hall AKA "My Skingrad House", and the quest should update normally, telling you that you can buy the furnishings from Gunder. I am not 100% sure if these things work, since I don't own the PC version. I hope this helps you in your problem. By the way, you can sign your comments on talk pages by adding four tildes ( ~ ) --Bippo Ernesti 10:33, 19 March 2008 (UTC)


 * That is really cheating. To get the house in Sknigrad it involves a couple of mini quests. If you performed the Thieves Guild Quest Lost Histories and opted for getting a ob in the castle you already know the Orcs routine. My question to you is are you using a PC version or what?  Bippo Ernest Question for you If you are not familiar with the PC version how can you give advise for a PC version and how did you even get promoted if you can't give advice for all versions if you are unfamiliar with them.  Bippo stick to what you know, do not give advice where you are not familiar with the Game i.e. PC Version.Midnight Mia 05:04, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

thank you Bringer of death 19:41, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

query
just wanted to say i think on the main page there should be a section called guilds which takes you to the guilds list are you the person to tell this to or not ? lol im new


 * Hmm, doesn't sound like a bad idea. I'm going to talk to Spec and Hellhound for their opinions on this matter. The section sounds like it could be quite handy, provided the section would fit. By the way, you can sign your comments on talk pages by adding four tildes ( ~ ) --Bippo Ernesti 21:39, 19 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I noticed that there already is a link to the guilds. It's the Factions link, it tells you about the guilds and such. --Bippo Ernesti 19:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Item ID
hi i was wondering how do you find out an items ID you did it for the key so i suspect you know how also wht times of the day are you on? Bringer of death 08:02, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * You can find all the "normal" ID lists from Item IDs, "normal" meaning that they have no IDs from plug-ins or expansions. The time here in Finland is two hours more than what the wiki's time shows in its timestamps, just add +2 hours to this wiki's time and you'll get when it's day and night. Sometimes I might be on at nights. --Bippo Ernesti 08:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If you have the TES Construction Set you can find anything you want. It Can be down loaded from the internet from Bethesda on your PC.  Also make sure you have the current upgrade for your PC.  I Can only help with PC version.  Sorry I do not see what relevance it is to the time in Finland, people on this site are from all over the world the time is irrelevant.  My time is central standard US time.  SO What. The time here right noe is 12:45 AM May 14, 2008.Midnight Mia 05:46, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Gates
I have barly done the main quest because i dont want all the gates to close is there a way to have the gate not close or somthing--Mastermj61 01:36, 22 March 2008 (UTC)


 * There may be user-made mods that make it so that gates continue to appear, but no, there is no way of keeping the gates open normally once the main quest is complete. \*\ Hellhound43 01:39, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I know of a way to do it so its just like you did do it and why would you close the gates.TIP (jump the lava when you see a small patch of lad to get there you find stuff like my asorb health 35pts on a darric long sord.what you do is do the main story line but before you finish it save then beat it then load and use the item IDs to get the armor and the outher stuff so it's kind of like you did it 203.164.33.171 07:26, 26 March 2008 (UTC


 * Why do you want the gates to stay open? I only closed 23 and finished the main quest.  You can only use so many sigil stones for yourself.  I am a level 30 and I am in the shivering isles and have completed that main quest. May be I have better Armor/what ever than you do but I am sorry I don't miss the Gates from You now where.  They were really a pain.  I guess if you like them OK but I thought they were really mundane.  I got tired of the same thing.Midnight Mia 05:50, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

You sicken me Midnight. Im lvl 37 and im killing myself over letting all of the gates close...and they werent a pain, they were fun! I didnt even get a chance to get Hatreds Soul...and besides, the highest level sigil stone did way better than any enchanment you could make with a soul gem. Like...reflect damage or spell. Oh and what armour are you using by the way? Molotov 22:51, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

fame and imfamy
Hi I was wondering is there aney way i can raise my fame and imfamy outher then quests and oblivion portals because ive allready beaten all 5 factions and want fame mor my character and imfamy for the grey fox

and this is probly a stupid question and i should of figured it out by now but what dose fame and imfamy do? 203.164.33.171 07:39, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I can't exactly remember if there was a way to gain Fame other than doing heroic quests. If I remember correctly, Infamy can be either obtained by doing quests that usually involve murder/stealing, or killing/stealing from citizens. If you have the Knights of the Nine plug-in, you can reset your Infamy back to zero by doing the Pilgrimage quest. I believe some side quests will also gain Fame.


 * To answer your other question, Fame is what makes your character have a good fame, a.k.a. famous, it affects the citizens' dispositions and reactions when they see you, they are usually complimenting you and calling you a hero. Infamy makes the character have a bad fame, a.k.a. infamous, just like Fame, it affects the citizens' dispositions and reactions when they see you, when you have a big Infamy score, they might not like you much, and might say some mean things.


 * I hope this was helpful in figuring out the Fame and Infamy. Don't forget to check the OblivioWiki page on it click this link to get there. --Bippo Ernesti 07:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Heheh, I know ALL about Infamy (not really). BUT! I used to have an Infamy of about 517. You dont even need a quest for it. Just go on citywide rampages and slaughter nonessential NPC's and guards. Molotov 09:58, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Thats one of my favorit hobbeis.Slashing inasants for no good reason, hearing them screem"By the gods theres a cicopath on the loose over and over again.--Chasieray 13:38, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes but it gets really boring after a while having no-one but you and some guards in the cities... Molotov 22:46, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

helping out
you seem to be good at helping people so how can i help people out? 203.164.33.171 07:39, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * You could start by creating a user here and try editing some articles, there are many articles that could use helpful contributions. You can also visit the talk pages on some articles and answer questions asked by other people. --Bippo Ernesti 07:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

how do you find out what the set stage cheats are?


 * I think you could get them from the Construction Set on the PC version, you need to find the quest's ID and the stage "score" where you want it to be advanced. --Bippo Ernesti 08:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

That really is cheating but yes go to the TES construction set and you can find the stage you want if you are really really really stuck. I have done this but it really spoiles everything so I went back and figured it out on my own. Good example is Ebrocca Fort in Shivering Isles. Not a quest but lots of good stuff for the Museum of Oddities quest. One of those ares if you really are an adventurer to save often and seperate saves.Midnight Mia 05:11, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

helpers
Hi do you know the list of people in the game that will (maby after a quest or during a quest but are quest charatures and you can use to allways follow you) follow you arround and fight or just some of them you know

i allready know these

4 everscamps if you dont finish the quest adoreing fan a dark brother hood guy after beating the guild (only heard rumers)a person after beating storyline

if there is a page tell me were please


 * We don't specifically have a page that lists potential followers. What I know of are:
 * Adoring Fan of the Arena
 * Dark Brotherhood member when you become guildmaster
 * Up to two Mage Apprentices when you become Arch-Mage of the Mages Guild
 * A knight or two in the Knights of the Nine official plug-in
 * I don't recall anyone following you after you beat the main storyline. --theSpectator talk 04:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

I think during the Main quest, if you don't take Martin and Jauffre to Cloud Ruler Temple then you can get them to follow you around. I think thats the same with Mazoga in the quest for the count of leyawiin...just dont take her to the camp.Molotov 09:55, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * In Shivering Isles when you complete the main story line you can have a Dark Seducer or Golden Saint or both Follow you. They will Fight to their death to protect you. You are the NEXT/NEW SHEOGORATH. The adoring fan of the arena doesn't follow you, he just stays in your house in the Waterfront district if you own the house there and is a pest.  Midnight Mia Midnight Mia 04:49, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

In shivering isles you can get a frendly skined hound to follow you but I never got to see if you can bring him out of shivering isles becous I was jumping on roofs in crucible and he tride to make the jump but trigicly missed.After that I comited suiside In the game of cource.

Did you use Blackwood Ring of Silence? Thats always fun lol. Oh and if you download the Frostcrag Spire official plug-in you can get an Atronach (fire, frost or shock) to follow you around. Molotov 22:45, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Uploading images
When you look in the upload log, you can see I tried to upload 1 image two times, changing the name slightly because I thought that was the problem, however, neither of the pictures works. Am I doing something wrong? If so, pls explain to me what it is and delete those 2 failed uploads, so I can try again. Thnx --Remco 18:34, 22 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I have a hunch that it has something to do with the servers, not the image. For some reason, after the move to Wikia, loading images on pages sometimes have issues, so do freshly uploaded images. I have yet to understand the problem, but I have a feeling that it is something that has something to do with the change from GameWikis to Wikia. The image will probably start working in a day or two. --Bippo Ernesti 18:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Then one of the two should be deleted, I couldn't find the delete button, so can you help me and delete the newest one (the one without the ´ in jim´s.), thnx. --Remco 19:10, 22 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I already deleted the one without the apostrophe, so there is only [[Image:Goblin Jim's Cave.jpg]] left from the two. Also, deletion rights are only available if your status is from admin to the highest status. Also, in case you didn't know, you can check the newest edits from The recent changes link, also shown on the left side of the site. --Bippo Ernesti 19:48, 22 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Thnx, I noticed you had already deleted the one after i posted that comments, and I discovered the recent changes link some days ago. I now uploaded the other ones from Goblin Jim's cave that I created. As soon as I notice in the coming days you're right and they started working, I'll add them to the article. --Remco 20:00, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Fire Ring
Sorry about that. Its either the Fire Ring or Ring of Fire. Its exactly same as Frost Ring or Ring of Frost except it resists Fire. Its enchantment is Resist Fire 100%. I found it in random marauder loot i think. Oh and is there any money cheats you can use after you install Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine cuz my Bounty is over 300k now...lol Molotov 10:09, 7 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I think I found the ring, but it is called Flame Ring. Its enchantment is Resist Fire 100%, the price is 5040 and the weight is 0.1. Also, I don't know about much money cheats in the game, so I can't help you with that, have you tried looking from the Cheats article? --Bippo Ernesti 13:11, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah your right. I checked my inventory again and it is Flame Ring sorry. There wouldnt be a Shock Ring would there? Molotov 22:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)


 * There are three rings, Flame Ring, Storm Ring and Frost Ring, all those rings have 100% resistance to their respective elements. --Bippo Ernesti 04:24, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Morag Tong
What does the Morag Tong Assassin armor look like? Is it just normal enchanted leather or does it look different? Id like to know cuz every time I try and pull it up on Google Images its all pics of Morrowind...Molotov 09:52, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I think it has no difference to the leather armor in terms of appearance. The armor is basically a leveled leather armor with some enchantments. --Bippo Ernesti 10:27, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Races
Man I've got lotsa questions don't I? Anyways...on the Dwemer page I was wondering what game the image of the statue of the dwarf was from? Molotov 10:20, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't mind the questions, I'll always try my best to answer them. The image has been taken from TESIII: Morrowind, since TESIV: Oblivion doesn't have any Dwemer or Dwemer statues in the game. --Bippo Ernesti 10:27, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay thanks, cuz im starving for new locations in Oblivion and I was hoping lol. Molotov 09:30, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Locations
You wouldnt happen to know the total amount of places you can find if you only have Oblivion, Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine do you? cuz Ive found a total of about 403 and Id really like to explore somewhere new. Molotov 22:39, 31 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, I don't know the total amount, I don't believe I've explored everything myself yet. The game is huge, so it takes time to find the locations. There might be more, and I wish you good luck on finding them. --Bippo Ernesti 04:24, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * If you search in google for Oblivion Map it will come up with one. Last time i remember there was around 600-1000 places. On the map i looked at I remember there being millions of bandit camps all quite close together. If they count as places... Duderock101 15:08, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Background Motion Freezing
I have come across a problem where things that are in motion as part of a background start freezing, Ex. fire, butterflies, olbivion gates, opening doors, etc. Also, when I cast a spell on myself the spiral around me doesn't activate and finally moves very slowly long after i've casted. I've tried reloading a prior save. I have 530 hours in the game and really don't want to start over. I also have the game of the year edition. Is there too much motion on the screen for the frame rate? I'm on the Xbox 360 version. Any solutions? Juicetone 05:01, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Hmm, strange, that has never happened to me, nor have I heard of such a thing happening before. Sadly, I don't know any solution to this kind of a problem. I also have the Xbox 360 version, but not GotY, so I can't tell whether or not it has anything to do with that fact. The game does have some rare glitches that probably couldn't be easily repeated, and this might be one of them. I'd like to ask you how old your Xbox 360 and TESIV is, it might affect the performance of the game. Try cleaning the disc gently with a soft cloth, also, try the Xbox 360's cache clearing trick, just press A when booting the 360 up, hold A until the Bethesda logo appears, the cache should be now empty. This usually helps if you have played the game a lot and haven't cleared the cache. I've tried the cache clearing trick in numerous occasions, and nothing bad has ever happened. The only difference you'll notice is that the first times after clearing the cache, the loading times will take a little longer, but that's because the cache was cleared. I hope this was helpful in anyway and I wish you the best of luck on getting the background motion working properly. --Bippo Ernesti 06:08, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * My GOTY edition is 4 days old, so it's not scratched or anything. I also have the Elite 360, but I don't know what the TESIV is. My 360 is only seven months old, almost to the day. The only weird things are that I started my game on another 360 and transferred the game to a memory card and then to my hard drive; also started the game with the regular Oblivion up until 4 days ago. I cleared the cache, any other recommedations? Juicetone 21:27, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * If you cleared the cache, then no, sadly I do not know of any other way of trying to solve this problem. Also, "TESIV" is basically the abbreviation of "The Elder Scrolls IV", meaning The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Anyway, I hope you will find what the cause of the problem is and that it can be fixed. --Bippo Ernesti 22:52, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Well thank you very much for the help anyway. You guys are a true asset to the WIKI community. Juicetone 23:28, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * There's a glitch that causes game's to crash with GOTY Ed. Basically because of certain characters in the game who are given certain scripts, the game uses up ID numbers rapidly. The game was originally meant to recycle them and it doesn't. Without the GOTY Ed. this isn't a problem because it would take 2000+ hours to occur, but the new scripts speed up the process. The only "cure" is to download the patch. Kirbsys 23:46, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Sekoperse :D


 * At first I meant to make that character of mine a goof character (which is pretty obvious from the Name and Class), but I decided to keep him as a regular character when I noticed that he's pretty good. I first meant to use him as a character to test some glitches and see what would happen if I did some things that I didn't do on Bippo. Nice to hear that it gave you a chuckle. --Bippo Ernesti 14:10, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I think that the background motion freezes are from too many items in the immediate area. possibly from playing so long all the shop keepers are packed to full. try taking a bunch of items and drop them somewhere in a corner or something you never go to on the main map. or if you havent done unexpected voyage yet do it and drop and bunch of low weight items into the ocean. should clean it up. noticed background motion frezeing when i first learned how to dupe and tried to dupe 500 things at once. good luck. UmF 18:01, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Could it be from having to much stuff in my inventory? B/c i'm carrying around 1100 pounds of stuff. I need to get rid of some of it anyway. But you also brought up another good point, the game didn't start doing this until I duped the Summon Dremora Lord spell, I made about 100 of those b/c it is no longer available from the Bruma guild. However, I reloaded an older save WAY before I duped those scrolls and it still did it and that's what I can't figure out. Juicetone 04:03, 12 June 2008 (UTC)


 * That could be a problem too. ive started just going to oblivion gates and dropping unwanted stuff in the lava :]] you should do a test and create a new char / empty your cache and see if it still lags. if it doesnt then we confirmed a way to fix a big problem among forum players. good luck glad to of been of help.

Plug-in problems
Hey Bippo, I have a question for you. You have a 360, right? I have all of the downloads (Knights of the Nine, Shivering Isles, etc.) and they all worked just fine. Then the XBox broke so I got a new one but kept the same hard drive. Now, though, the plug-ins won't work. The console just can't seem to find them. But! They work when I'm on XBox live, for some reason. Then the game finds 'em. I tried clearing the cache and re-downloading the plug-ins, but neither of those things worked. I've looked around on the web but I can't seem to find anything. It wouldn't be a big deal but now my ethernet cable is broken, and I if I load a game I'll lose all of the Shivering Isles stuff in my inventory, etc... Have you heard of this? Has anyone? Thanks in advance! andy 00:49, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

yea. that happened to me on my brothers 360. i brought my hdd over to his house to play GH3 and it wouldnt let me access my downloaded songs. get a new ethernet cable and reload them? idk. next time i go to my brothers house ill mess around and find out how to fix it. also you shouldnt lose you shivering isle stuff. as i still had all my stuff on my brothers xbox along with being able to go there. you just have to worry about to the other plug-ins.

 * Well I've never heard nor encountered a problem like such. The only tip I could've given you at this point would've been the re-downloading, but if it didn't help, then I'm stumped. Have you visited the System tab -> Memory -> Hard Drive -> Games -> Oblivion to see if there are every plug-in? This is a long shot, but if nothing else works then you could check it. It might also be possible that Microsoft has made it so that if you save a file on your HD using a certain console, no other console is allowed to use that data, this is very doubtful, but this is one of my speculations. Do you have any other games with plug-ins to test if they still work? If they do, then the problem must be in either the files or Oblivion itself. I'll try to think of a way to fix this error, in the meantime, good luck on getting it back working. --Bippo Ernesti 02:27, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Did you delete the plug-ins of your HDD before you reloaded them? if not try deleteing them off your HDD, clearing your cache, then re-d/ling them. goodluck. UmF 02:42, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I didn't delete them, I just downloaded them again. It only took about two seconds because they were already there.  I'll try deleting them now.  Thanks for the tips! andy 03:11, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

no problem. tell me if it fixes it. good luck. UmF 04:16, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

thanks
Well thank you for the warm welcome and i hope i can keep contributing, i have one question related to a quest, where is the ring of disrobing obtained, it isnt on the help page so if anyone knows that may be an easy edit and very helpful.Pip95 14:11, 22 June 2008 (UTC)


 * It's always good to get new contributors here, there hasn't been a lot of action in the wiki as you might see from the Recent changes. As for the Ring of Disrobing, I believe it can only be obtained from random containers, meaning that there is no real location for the ring. --Bippo Ernesti 19:01, 22 June 2008 (UTC)


 * ok thanks alot bippo thisll help me complete that quest, and ill try to do hwat i can to help the site grow.Pip95 18:59, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

ok so im clueless how to do tables cud you sort out the table i did in thorn shield? i copied it from the steel armour page but changed the value which is the only thing that is different and i mean the steel armour on this site not from another site btw, cud you sort out the table please?Pip95 10:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I will start sorting the table out, you can copy tables for armor, weapons and apparel from Hellhound43's testpage, that's where I usually get them. Also a reminder that you can check your edit without saving it instantly by pressing "Show preview". --Bippo Ernesti 22:00, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * ok thanks and i usually do but i saw something was up with my table in the preview so i just saved what id done and thought you might b able to sort it out.Pip95 10:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

so how do you find out an items ID btw?Pip95 10:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Item IDs can be found in the Item IDs article, but the best source for IDs is the Construction Set. --Bippo Ernesti 13:18, 26 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks!Pip95 15:16, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Image problem
Heya Bippo, were you able to get into contact with anyone at Wikia regarding the image problem? I tried looking around to see who to contact, but most seem like they're AFK from Wikia in general. --theSpectator talk 23:34, 29 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I asked TOR if he had anything to say to the problem, but I haven't heard a response, I'm not sure who to contact if no response is heard from TOR. I'm baffled why the images don't work, I haven't seen anything like this on any other wiki. --Bippo Ernesti 07:27, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Knights of The Nine Bug?
Hi there Bippo. I think I need some help from you.

I recently got the Game of the Year Edition of Oblivion for XBox 360. I beat the Shivering Isles expansion and then decided to start on the Knights of the Nine. It all went well until now.

I am on the Umaril the Unfeathered quest. I went to Garlas Malatar, waited for all the knights to show up and then launched the attack. However, in the first room of Garlas Malatar, (there are three doors and one push button that is presumably supposed to open the doors) I killed all the enemies and then pushed the button, but none of the doors would open.

I tried reloading the game and redoing some of the last quests, but I ran into the same problem. And if I wait a few hours, I find that all the knights have somehow gotten through the doors, but the doors still won't open for me.

Do you have any idea what the problem could be and how I might be able to fix it? I'd really appreciate any help you could give me.

 * I've never heard of such a thing happening, I don't know what could trigger it. It's been so long since I did that quest so I don't really remember how the quest went, but I had no bugs there. You can check out Umaril the Unfeathered (quest) page to see if you didn't do something that needed to be done, if you did, then I don't think I have anything to help you in that. --Bippo Ernesti 15:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I haven't done the quest in a long time, so I can't remember, but are those the same metal doors that are present in other ayleid ruins? If so, try going to another random Ayleid ruin that has a door opened by a button or trigger similar to this and see if it opens. If it does not, then it's the common bug with Ayleid doors stopping to function properly and you will most likely have to start a new game for them to work again. \*\ Hellhound43 17:18, 1 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your help. However, it turns out I have the problem hellhound mentioned, about the doors in Ayleid ruins no longer working. Looks like I'll have to start over.... *grumbles* I really love this site. Seems like I learn something new every time I take a look. Usually it's something that should have been obvious. Heheh. But then again, maybe girls and video games just aren't naturally compatible. I'd REALLY hate to start over (My Wood Elf is at level 41) so if you come up with any other ideas that might fix it, please do tell me!

Thanks, guys!

LithaRain 20:34, 1 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I know how annoying it is. Had it happen to me several times, part of the reason I don't think I've ever had a character get above level 30 or so, and part of the reason I usually prefer to play Morrowind instead. \*\ Hellhound43 21:21, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Blocking ppl
Hey Bippo, two ppl to consider for blocking (I'd like to do it, but can't, so I'm bothering you): Kid1012: Everything he did was add the url for a newly started oblivion-wiki everywhere (Easter Eggs, cheats, Talk: Main page and Links) Since only 1 of these was correct, I removed everything but from the Talk page and the Links page. but he still was annoying, and a vandal. 204.193.201.49: He vandalized Peryite, I corrected and he did it again. Somehow, you didn't notice this, so he wasn't blocked and I'd hate to have it happen again today. Thnx --Remco 14:26, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I blocked the Anonymous user, but I disagree with blocking kid. I don't believe that what he did warrants being blocked, more so I think he just doesn't know how a wiki works. If he continues to be an annoyance we will consider blocking him. \*\ Hellhound43 15:16, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, and by the way, Bippo, you should archive your talk page, it's getting long :) . \*\ Hellhound43 15:17, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree with not blocking Kid1012, I wouldn't have blocked him myself if I had had the opportunity, because I wasn't sure it warranted blocking. But it does seem a bit weird to me that he doesn't know how a wiki works, seeing as how his link links to a newly formed wiki about oblivion (with 0,0 articles yesterday). Also, how can anybody who goes online and edits a wiki, not know how one works? But still, I agree with not blocking him, I was just pointing out what he did, because I ahd to point out the anonymous user. --Remco 15:47, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh and a user named Kj101 made an article yesterday about Sewer Mansion, which is a 3rd-party mod (he added it to the list of 3rd party mods), but the article should be deleted. I always put it on the talk page of the article in question, because I can't delete, but nobody noticed it yesterday.--Remco 16:10, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I deleted the 3rd party mod article and sent a welcome note to Kid1012 and also about the external link. Thanks for catching that. --theSpectator talk 18:03, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I did not miss the vandalism, but I did forget to block the IP, I've lately been a tad busy doing things in real life. I was also planning on doing something about the 3rd party mod article, but obviously I forgot that too.
 * Yeah, I guess I should archive this page, let's just hope I won't forget to do that. I'll probably do it tomorrow. --Bippo Ernesti 19:08, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Look, I don't want to whine, but maybe you can give me admin rights, so I don't have to bother anyone about stuff like this. I´ve been active for some time now, and while I don't know much about wiki's and I'm not creating new pages (one of the reasons for that is, I don't even know how to make a new page), I can help you guys with blocking/deleting useless articles. I'm on here every day except for sundays. Just to lighten your load, but if you don´t want to, I don´t mind.--Remco 19:17, 9 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I made you an admin, you can now use the block, delete and rollback features as well as some other ones. Welcome to the team! --Bippo Ernesti 04:33, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
