Belrogofmoria Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hey there, I am a oblivion player. I have been trying to download the update to Oblivion so that I can use mods, but for some reason whenever I run the Installer it gives me an error message. "Old file not found. However, a file of the same name was found. No update done since file contents do not match." Could someone tell me what my problem is? :unsure: All advice would be very appriciated. Thanks for your time. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 It may mean that you are already patched. Look on the load screen in the lower left corner and it displays your current version. If it says 1.2.0146 you already have the latest patch. The Game of the Year version already has the latest patch. It can also mean you have a problem if you installed the wrong language patch. I see this mostly from people who got their patch from somewhere besides the official site - The patches are free and every language version is there.Note that there are 2 English versions, UK & US be sure to use the one that matches your disk. However, for Shivering Isles there is only one English patch for both US & UK. If you managed to install a wrong language patch, your only hope is to completely uninstall - using the disk, Then reinstall and install the proper patch. For Shivering Isles, if you installed a beta patch. again, you must uninstall the entire game, then reinstall without the beta patch. Then use only the latest SI patch and not the Oblivion patch.
