Install order for OBSE v.20

[DeadShadow777]

so I have recently reinstall my oblivion, and when I managed to get it work, It goes error

I have these patch :

-patch 1.1

-patch 1.2

-Shivering Isle

-Shivering Isle patch

 

and lets just say that my oblivion now just installed, does anyone which one i should patch first so my OBSE could run?

thank you.

You will only need 1 patch, depending on whether you're using Shivering Isles or not.

The usual install order for the things you mentioned would be:

 

Oblivion,

Shivering Isles,

1.2.0416 patch for SI

 

Make sure you get the right language version for the patch, too, else it won't install.

Some inbetween patched versions can't be properly patched further, so it's better not to install them to begin with. No beta patches, no patching Oblivion before installing SI... all this can only screw up your game.

The different patches don't add up, so a later version patch doesn't need a previous version patch or anything like that. Just install the game and the SI Expansion pack, then install the one patch you need to get it up to v1.2.0416 SI.

 

I hope I'm making sense.

so it means like this

 

1. Installed oblivion (clean no patch)

2. install SI pack

3. patch with 1.2 SI version

4. Done?

That's the usual way to go, yes.
