Joncarr Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 I have just purchased Shivering Isles and installed it. But as stated in the manual, after waiting a day a message is supposed to appear introducing the Shivering Isles content, but I don't get this. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Oblivion itself but still no joy. I have no mods on. Anyone tell me what I can do about this? Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Did you get any error messages in installation? Is it shown as 'on' in the data files section? (It is supposed to be 'on' by default but stange things can happen when mad gods are involved.) So far I have not seen other reports of loading probs. This doesn't mean there aren't any.

I have all (Oblivion and Shivering Isles) .esp checked. Still nothing happens while in game. I had no error messages during the installation either.

ninja_lord666 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Did you remember to install the dreaded official 1.2 patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant0 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Did you remember to install the dreaded official 1.2 patch?1.2 is automatically added when you install SI, trying to install it again will break your ability to use the beta patch, in addition to increase the liklyhood of other problems. You could always just head out east of bravil, I don't think the island and 20+ some other objects aren't enabled till the quest starts, but then again, had to say, this is bethsoft... Going to extreme lengths to get meaningless stuff done, putting little effort in spots where it matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joncarr Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 Well this sucks. No matter what I do I can't get this damn expansion to work. But thank you for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Maybe you have a corrupt CD of the game. I know this is very rare but it can happen. Try requesting a replacement and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
