HolyCheeseCubes Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 mmkay, so i come back to oblivion after a while and i decide to get a vampire addon. the vampire addon requires OBSE to work right, so i download obse, then it tells me that i need to update my game. i try to do so and apparently i have a corrupt oblivion.esm. so i cant update oblivion, which means i cant get OBSE to work, which means i cant use most of the mods and addons out there! :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 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. Bethesda site: http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/updates_patches.htm If you need to reinstall the game, Here is a link to my complete uninstall/reinstall procedure located in the articles section of the Nexushttp://www.tesnexus.com/articles/article.php?id=240 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolyCheeseCubes Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 ok, that's all great advice but the only thing that helps is the reinstall thing XD. :thanks: i do have the official version, but its outdated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
