Q)Does the story in Oblivion pick up where Morrowind ended?
A)No, each chapter of the Elder Scrolls series is a different
story unto itself and isn't directly connected to any of the
other storylines. All of it adds to the lore and history of
The Elder Scrolls, but you don't have to play previous games
to know what's going on in this one.
Q)CAN AND HOW DO YOU GET AN IN GAME SCREEN SHOT?
A)YES and here is HOW TO ENABLE the (Prt Scrn) Keyboard button to take screen shots.
You will need to Modify 2.ini files in different sections of you drive.
1st is as follows:
a) go to the hard drive you loaded Oblivion in and find and open the file: Bethesda Softsworks then find Oblivion and open that now find
Oblivion_default.ini, it may only say Oblivion_default
b)open the file and search down for [Display] from there
search down a dozen lines or so and you'll see the line
bAllowScreenShot=0
c) Change the "0" to "1" go to top of that page and click file and then "save"
but you must save this or it reverts back to "0".
NEXT!
2nd The last file needing the alteration is as follows:
d) in MY DOCUMENTS find: My Games then open the Oblivion game file
e)again find The Oblivion_ini file.
f)open the file and search for [Display] from there
search down a dozen lines or so and you'll see line .
bAllowScreenShot=0
g) again Change the "0" to "1" go to top of that page and click file and then "save" and close the files.
Now to get Screen shots you press the Prt Scrn Key on the keyboard while
playing Oblivion you will get a new screen shot saved in your file each time
another new shot will be saved along with all the others.
Enjoy and hope this file helps TCB
