What works

Everything tested so far

What does not

dxdllreg.exe error occurs when game starts up. This is non-fatal, the game runs fine- I think this is linked to installing a native d3dx9 module. I do get some video freeze-ups in high action scenes- distracting but not a show stopper. (running game on gforce 8400.)

Workarounds

What was not tested

Not sure, I've only tried playing the single-player adventure. I don't know what else the game does.

Additional Comments

I installed a native copy of d3dx9_27.dll through winetricks before installing the game. I don't know if it works without it, so maybe Gold would be a better rating, but I still give it a platinum rating, since it may have worked without it.

HowTo / Notes

Dll override (d3dx9_27.dll)
d3dx9_27.dll seems to be needed for playing Oblivion. Thus, you need it. I’m not sure if it affects to battle where the king where murdered, but I set this to native only and cleared it. Though, same time I waited ending of the battle behind the corner.
WARNING
(1.1.0) Wine implementation of quartz is buggy and seems to cause random crashes. Disabling it removes in-game musics but seems to help with both crashes and battle performance.
