Spec. To fit stuff yo need the skill, and ship to carry the weapons, shields, armor, electronic modules, etc.

If you look on the market, items tell you whether you have the skill requirements for them.

Next thing is a ship, Battleships have more fitting than cruisers which have more fitting than frigates.

There are also generally 3 teirs. The top teir in any class (Cruiser/Frigate) can fit more than the bottom teir.

I don't know what race you are, but top teir frigates include the Rifter, Punisher, and Kestrel. These have more slots to fit things, and more powergrid and CPU to fit things.

Remember the COUNTERGLOW channel and feel free to ask for help there. I will log in in a second (not been on much this week).

question for those who have played this game. ES4: Oblivion.

The controls are horrible! I can't play this way. And some people say NWN2 is bad. But ES4 is unplayable! Didn't ES3 Morrowind have double mouse click movement? I seem to remember it did. And kotor 1 and 2 had it too, and I loved that. So did World of Warcraft. This game is broken. a and d keys strafe and don't rotate. how retarded is that. Sure I can assign those to q and e, but you still can't rotate except with the mouse. And you can't hold that, or bounces back. So you can't even get a close up of your face. argh.

Anyone know of a mod to fix this?

Funny thing is I played a little bit last year before I got bored of it in 1 day. I don't know how I did it. I know my video card isn't up to spec, but that doesn't seem to be what's stopping me. I figured if a game has such super high reviews as this one, I should give it another chance.

I don't remember any such problem.
a and d, q and e, I remember ones are for strafe the others are for rotate, although I don't remember which ones for what.

To move the camera around, it was something like:
TAB, then move mouse while holding the right-click (use the wheel to zoom in and out).
I don't remember exactly, it's so long ago, but I'd say RTFM, it all in there.

k I'm getting used to wasd controls (somewhat), but I can't seem to move the cursor around. I finally got the crosshairs to show up, But you can't seem to pick anything up or activate it unless it is directly in front of you. Perhaps this is how morrowind was and I just don't remember.

I want to be able to move the cursor, click something to pick it up without moving the character and camera around. Is this possible? No.

Originally posted by Dis And combat is kind of fun, but it really is an action game. You really can't call this an rpg.

The biggest problem is I can't seem to accurately target anything. I have to move around, move the camera until the crosshairs are on something and I get the text showing I'm on the right thing. Often I misclick and talk to the wrong person. This is a horrible system! Why can't there be a cursor I can move to click in game objects and people? This system is fine as long as you play at first person view, don't switch to a third person view and everything will be ok.
And try OOO it makes combat different as well as many other things like lockpicking, persuasion, trade, etc. That mod really makes Olivion more a RPG than a shooter.
