Oblivion Patch 1.2.0416 Error

When i try and install oblivion patch 1.2.0416 i get this error "oblivion patch old files not found. however, a file of the same name was found. no update done since file contents do not match"i have no idea what the problem is. i searched on google and other places and could not find a solution so if anybody knows what the problem is then please tell me what to do about it

It says "Patch old files not found" so did you download the older patches first?fudgeblood

Do i have to download older patches in order for the newest one to work?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here..but....do you have the Game of the Year Edition of the game? If so, its already patched.

That, or the Steam version? Because Steam auto-patches and thus does not require the user to download the patches seperately.fudgeblood

where would i look to see what version of oblivion i have

Edit

The reason I'm trying to patch (unless it already has the patch) is because some mods on planet elder scrolls says it requires it and the mods aren't working

im running 64bit and sometimes mods dont work and sometimes they doMetalGearSolidZ

Exactly. I'm running Vista 64-bit also, and I have delayed reinstalling Oblivion because it is a hassle.

You'll need some utilities such as the Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) to Load-Order your mods, and it will list mod conflicts.

You should also install your patches before any mods.

OBMM btw, requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 in order to execute.

Some mods also require that Shivering Isles be installed and activated because the mods use an item from it).

I'm going to give you a couple of links to the publisher's forum: one for Oblivion Hardware & Software Issues, the other for Oblivion Mods. I'm a member, and I have received a lot of game-specific help there.
