Hi, I have a MBP earlie 2008.
2.4 GHz, 8600GT 256 MB, 4096 MB Corsair memory.

What kind of settings should I use in Video to get the optimal performance?

Resolution?
Tree Fade?
Actor Fade?
Item Fade?
Object Fade?
Grass Distance?
Distant Land? on/off?
Distant Buildings? on/off?
Distant Trees? on/off?
Int. Shadows?
Ext. Shadows?
Self Shadows? on/off?
Tree Canopy Shadows? on/off?
Specular Dist?
HDR Lightning? on/off? only works with off, or else i get black screen.
Bloom Lightning? on/off?
Water Detail?
Water Reflections? on/off?
Water Ripples? on/off?
Window Reflections? on/off?
Blood Decals?
Anti-aliasing?

I play in MAC OS X, not via Bootcamp and Windows.
This is Mac version of the game!

Thanks in forward 🙂

Oblivion was never made for Mac OS X. So there's no possible way you could be playing it that way.

It could be a cider port? I've heard of one floating around. Not sure how well it would run, but I'd messed around w/ Oblivion in bootcamp on my MacBook w/ similar specs and it didn't have much issue. Sorry this isn't much help but IF it is a Cider port, it's hard to say, usually they won't run as well but decent. You prob will have to turn down a few things.. but why not just try it =)

*edit* re-read what exactly you're asking lol

I would turn off all shadows, anti-aliasing for sure, water detail, HDR, specular, and lower fade for most of those above. I love draw distance though esp for a game like that so if you can sacrifice a few things for max draw I would. Also lower resolution will help.
