this occurs when the patcher finds a file which do not correspond to the one it expects. Cracked, nocd, already patched with no recognizable version... these are the causes. You need the original Oblivion.exe for the patcher to work through.

1: i installed the original oblivionand nothing else (except for a few ingame mods)

2: the patches REALLY dont work cuz the game crashes with mods like midas magic.. (that needs a higher oblivion version)

3: i originally had 1.0.something but thanks to a half not working patch it now says that its v1.1.something -.-"

4: i dont have SI <is that important?

5: i never reinstalled it...

 

however 1 thing is funny.. the lich king armor appears ingame as a giant question mark :D

If you got your game through a download such as D2D, You have to go to them for any patches. The ones at the official site will not work because of the D2D copy protection. Programs like OBSE will probably not work because of the D2D copy protection. If you have a pirate version, sorry about your luck. Don't be so cheap, buy the game.

 

If you have the Game of the Year version, you don't need a patch.

 

To find what version you have, look in the lower left corner on the loading screen. If it shows v1.2.0416 you already have the latest patch.

 

You only need to install the latest patch, v1.2.0416, all of the stuff from earlier patches are included.

 

If you have Shivering Isles, DO NOT use the Oblivion patch, ONLY use the latest Shivering Isles patch. All of the oblivion stuff is included. There is only one English version SI patch for both US & UK versions.

 

If you DO NOT have Shivering Isles, use only the latest Oblivion patch for the language version on your original install disk.

 

Be sure to get your patch from the official Bethesda site where they have FREE patches for every language version, There are 2 English versions, UK & US be sure to get the one that matches your disk.
