Well here's the problem I've got at the moment, I've followed the read me as best as I could and the game just won't work with this mod activated, what happens is this:

Turn on Deadly Reflex in mod options

Start with OBSE mentioned in the read me that allows more script time or something

Select new game, click OK and nothing happens

Or the other way:

Select a save, crash to desktop.

This seems the be the main problem I'm having, I don't know whats causing it, whenever I turn off the Deadly Reflex mod the game works fine, I can start a new gave, load my old saved games, everything.

This is what I've done just in case I'm asked this:

Turned off Deadly Reflex and started the game, went to an empty room with no NPCs and saved, then I waited for about 4-5 days till the cells were clean, saved again and exited. - Didn't work

Made sure the mod was last to load (I already did this before I did the previous thing).

I am a bit confused on deleting the Archive Validation file, I can't find anything like that in my oblivion folders.

I'm pretty much stumped.....I've done everything I could think of to get this working, so I've now turned to the forums for any advice on this matter.

A quick response is appreciated, thanks.


EDIT: I use windows XP, if that helps at all

Do u start the game by activating the obse loader, not the Oblivion launcher
and used Oblivion mod manager (or the like) to correct load order ?

Yes I did, I made sure I did everything it said in the read me, I tried it again just now and it's still crashing on me. I've even reinstalled and re patched the game fully....twice

I got xp64, obse 0015a, Deadly reflex 4.03 and load deadly reflex last.
Works everytime for me and ive reinstalled alot !!!
ArchiveInvalidation.txt is in the C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion folder usually
Have u cleaned out the additional files that need to be choosen, only 3-4 files needed.

Obviously the esm
1 Timed Block esp ( if u want that option)
Mounted_Spellcasting Deadly Reflex Compatible.esp
Choose either DeadlyReflex - Combat Moves.esp cleansave or standard

in that order
Thats all i can think of

Ah its working now, many thanks. It didn't state what order it all had to go in, just "All my mods last".

All the info is in the read me, near the bottom !

Yea, but it didn't state which order in my read me
