Update

Still getting problem - seems to occur between daily and once every couple of days. Program usually open when it happens is internet explorer but I don't think this is particularly relevant.

If it is caused by some sort of update issue, would doing a system restore back to say a month ago ...

Update

Thanks for the response Picardo.

Since my last post, but before seeing your response, I have reloaded Oblivion and DLC etc but not actually played it yet (just got as far as the launcher). The same thing has still been happening intermittently, while doing completely unrelated things.

I ...

Display suddenly squashed

Hi,

Have tried searching this site and elsewhere but no-one seems to have had this problem - apologies if I just haven't searched correctly. Also apologies for the very long post, but thought it best to describe in full. Would be very grateful if someone could advise re issue experienced.

Basic ...

Thanks all - much appreciated.

It does seem a bit daft to me, though, considering the fact that, in the case of my characters above, the higher level character can hit his opponent more easily (and has two attacks), can still inflict enough damage to kill it in one blow, and has superior armour ...

Sorry, meant to say, current character is half-orc so barbarian is favoured-class (therefore should be no penalty). NB the difficulty settings are the same in each game too.

Update - I have just noticed that I still get 19 xp's as a rogue 3 monk 3 sorcerer 2 (ie 8th level character, one higher than ...

Why am I getting less XP?

In a previous game my Rogue 3 / Monk 2 / Sorcerer 2 received 19 xp's for killing a fire beetle (15 with a henchman), for example, but in my latest game as a Barbarian 4 / Sorcerer 1 / Red Dragon Disciple 2, I only receive 7 xp's for killing one, despite the total number of character levels being ...

[QUOTE=Fiberfar]But of course, you must remember that the other races have their favoured class.[/QUOTE]

So in my example of the Dwarven Fighter there would be no penalty (even though the RDD prestige class is >1 level above Sorcerer), whereas if it was a Dwarven Monk, for example, there would have ...

Okay,

So ...

1) Non human/Non Half-Elven race - totally ignore prestige class for purposes of mc experience penalty calculation (eg could have Dwarven Fighter 10, RDD 7, Sorc 1 with no penalty, or Dwarven RDD 10, Fighter 7, Sorc 1 ditto ?)

2) Human/Half Elf - provided prestige class is lower than ...

Multiclassing & Prestige classes

Thanks - one thing to clarify though:-

Taking the example of the Human Pal 9 Sorc 1 RDD 8, would you need to keep the levels of Paladin and RDD within one of each other (while ensuring RDD doesn't exceed Paladin), or could you go up to Pal 9, then Pal 9 Sorc 1 ...

Quick question - how do you get round the problem of the penalty to experience points if you only have one level in bard or sorcerer but want to be, say, a fighter/RDD/(bard/sorcerer)?

No races favour bard or sorcerer (please correct me if I have misread my manual!), so if you are non-human, you ...

That's great - thanks for letting me know. And I like the quicksave option - you're damned right we worked hard to get it (and keep it without being encumbered all the time!). :D

HotU - Can I get my stuff back? (SPOILER)

Hello everyone,

Just started HotU and slightly annoyed :mad: - collected all sorts of handy loot not only for myself but also for possible henchmen. Get to HotU and *puff* one drow thief later and its ALL GONE. Is that it, is it all gone for good or is it possible to recover it later?! :confused ...
