Cedega & Oblivion


Hey guys I am trying to install Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion under cedega. I originally used the 6.0 package but looking at the wiki I downloaded and 5.2.4. The problem I'm having is about 99% done, it asks me to but in disc 0 with data9.cab on it. This is an actual store bought game not a download and there is no data9.cab. Any suggestions? I've never had good luck with cedega but figured I'd try the 6.0 release since it was suppose to be a big improvement.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Just an interesting tid-bit of information. I did not get this error installing it with wine.

I did get an error 21 though.

why Cedega 5?

why Cedega 5? 6.0 is supposed to be much better? In fact, Oblivion is officially supported with that.

I think you will be better off using 6.0 and, since you bought it, reading the relevant threads about TES: Oblivion and if that does not answer your question, make a post of your own.

That error is with 6.0 and after I found out that the keep charging your card everymonth I canceled it. So the 6.0 package and the 5.2.4 package are the only ones I have... DOH!!! ><

my computer wouldn't run oblivion anyway, but i thought i'd throw in my 2 cents. i've found that games run better under wine than under cedega. could be worth trying that instead
