Potential graphic exploit for Oblivion *screenies*

Basically this bug in the graphics has to do with buildings that have overhangs on their porches. You can use anything (bench, fence, pot, a gaurd passing by) to gain the height and you can move up floors at a time from the outside.

The easiest building I found was in Anvil, at the manor you can buy.

1. Jump onto the fence to the north of the manor (see attachment 1)

2. Run and jump at the balcony, your character won't make it on the roof, but if you keep running, your character won't fall either. (see attachment 2)

3. Facing the wall, run around the balcony to the opposite side of the building. When you reach the end of the balcony run towards to corner where the balcony fence and the wall meet. Your character should run right up the roof and voila, your on the 2nd floor. (see attachment 3)

In this example there is nothing to benefit, but it was the easiest to reproduce for screenies quickly. Now go exploit it!

    Interesting exploit. I don't think I'll use it, but that's mainly because I don't have the need to jump on many rooves. It makes sense that you should be able to get up there, because real humans can climb, but but I haven't really wanted to be on a roof since I was a kid and my friends and I jumped off of their roof into their swimming pool (hoping to make it to the deep end, of course).

    Hoping to make it to the deep end... does that mean you failed to reach the deep end or failed to reach the pool?

    Luckily we never failed to reach the pool, but the times that we didn't make it past the shallow end, we hit bottom with a fair amount of force.

    I hope I'm not as stupid now as I was back then...
