ENBoost v0.259 patch for TES Oblivion - v0.259 - by Boris Vorontsov

Main Files

  • ENBoost v0.259 patch for TES Oblivion


Description: This is adaptation of code Boris Vorontsov did for TES Skyrim to reduce memory usage of the game and to fix most CTDs (crashes to desktop) because of "out of memory" issue when many mods installed. It's just a patch without any changes to graphics. What it's doing? Utilize your video card memory much better, compress resources and send them to enbhost.exe process, so you can install more mods with x64 OS (up to 4 gb game use by default and with this it's max about 10 gb at this moment).
Special Instructions: Instructions for this utility are included in the following CTD and Memory patch ENBoost mod.
