📋 About This Mod
Currently just fixes one engine bug that would result in memory corruption and a crash, more details available on GitHub
This mod does not replace Tiawar's Engine Bug Fixes and is recommended to be installed along side it.
Fixes:
1) Improper strrchr return check:
Instead of checking if strrchr returns null, Oblivion converts it to a string length and checks if it is negative. This doesn't work if the string is in the upper 2GiB of memory.
This fix only matters if you have 4GiB/LAA patched your Oblivion executable, and have enough mods for this to occur.
Blue's Engine Fixes is a lightweight patch mod that addresses several engine-level bugs in the game. With over 2,600 endorsements and 134,000 downloads, it's a community-trusted fix that improves stability without adding new content. Ideal for players experiencing technical issues.
