vetewe7144 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) I acquired the Shivering Isles patch v9.2.0.0 but is this patch already incorporated into the GOTY version? Edited March 13, 2021 by vetewe7144 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker879 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Look in the lower left corner of the main menu. If you see 1.2.0416 then your game is at the latest patch. The GotY versions that I have (which include Shivering Isles and all of the other DLC are fully patched at install. I believe there were some Steam GotY releases that didn't include all of the DLCs (but did include SI) but I'm a disk guy so I can't say for certain. All Steam versions should be fully patched when downloaded from Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vetewe7144 Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) The reason for the question is when I activated the SI 9.2 it was rejected in favor of an Older version when applied. The game reaches the loading screen then crashes. Oblivion.exe shows 1.2.0.416.This game use to work perfectly, I could "feel" the smoothness of the game play until I did an unintentional 'Refresh' of Windows a week ago which reset the computer back to 2014 wiping out everything off computer. So far I have restored Morrowind and FO3 but I can't get OB4 to work. Edited March 15, 2021 by vetewe7144 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker879 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Where did you get this SI 9.2 patch ... from Bethesda's site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vetewe7144 Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) The SI 9.0.2 is the version number in Properties, Details. https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/11364?tab=files I deleted 2 busted DLCs and that fixed the ctd. It reaches the loadscreen then freezes. Edited March 17, 2021 by vetewe7144 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vetewe7144 Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 I rebuilt a clean plugin list from scratch in the exact order as it was before I "Refreshed" my Lenovo a week ago, back to 2014. SI patch is rejected and now the game crashes again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeTheDragon Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Now that's a weird place to take the version from, if it's already written in the file name all over the place. But did Bethesda really mess up the internal versioning of their patches like that? Version 9.0.2 of the version 1.2.0416 patch? Why even doing that? They never cease to amaze me. So, do I get this right, you're using an already patched GotY version of the game with most of the expansions, including SI, already installed, yet still try to install a Shivering Isles patch to bring version 1.2.0416 to version 1.2.0416? One question then, to make absolutely sure. Before you installed any official patch, just after installing the game as is, did you already have DLC Shivering Isles in your plugins/data files and was the version already 1.2.0416 at the bottom of the main menu title screen or not? 'Cause if both was the case, then you don't need to install any official patches anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm that both the official patch with SI and the non-SI official patch show version 9.2.0.0 when you check them via the Windows Properties menu Details tab. To expand a bit on what Drake is saying ... if I were at your house to troubleshoot this I would first install just the game (no patches, no mods) and start the game, run through the tutorial and have a look around outside the tutorial dungeon. That would confirm that the vanilla game is working correctly and give an opportunity to check things like the reported version number (lower left of the main menu screen). Until you know the game works and what version number you are starting from you will have no clear idea of the path forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
