Debug Text

The console command "Toggle Debug Text" (or TDT) can be a invaluable tool to Oblivion players and modders alike. Tuned to the correct settings, this command can provide otherwise impossible-to-attain information, , but only if one knows how to use it effectively.

In order to choose which information you would like displayed in the Debug Text, first go to your \MyDocuments\MyGames\Oblivion\ directory and open the file named "Oblivion.ini". In this document, find the text which reads "iDebugText=", followed by a number. By changing this number, you change what the output of the Debug Text will be. No matter what number you choose, all forms of Debug Text include an FPS counter.

Two numbers that are of the most immediate use to players and modders are the numbers zero and ten. Setting iDebugText to 10 will show players how many skill-ups they have had since the last character level-up, and how many multiplier points they have garnered thus far. Setting iDebugText to 0 is useful to modders, as it shows the name of the ID of the cell you are currently in, which is useful for identifying wilderness cells.

The following is a list of all the meaningful settings for this value in the ini file. Some of these texts may change depending on the context of how they are used. This should be noted in those cases.
