The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Patch Released

by Maarten Goldstein, Jun 06, 2006 9:50am PDT

As promised, a patch is now available for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion updating it to v1.1.511. The small 1.6mb download offers bug fixes, quest fixes and plugin fixes. Here are some of the bugs that have been taken care of

- Fixed an issue with falling through collision in Fort Wooden Hand. - Fixed issue with some shadows not lining up. - Going to jail while equipped with bound armor or weapons no longer crashes the game. - Fixed issue with bound weapons not dispelling properly after dismounting a horse. - Fixed issue with player shadow being delayed after fast travel. - Fixed infinite gold issue on some dead NPCs. - Fixed issue with disease resistences that made it impossible to contract vampirism under certain circumstances. - Fixed an issue where occasionally skills would not increase properly after you received an increase in a way other than skill uses like as a quest reward. - Fixed an issue for LOD art for city was not unloading quickly enough when exiting an interior.

Does anyone in here use the LOTR music mod? That mod alone made my Oblivion experience much more enjoyable.

Too bad that it also made my game crashed to the desktop so many times that it just wasen't funny.

I still think this game desperately needs some uber creatures. Dragons and shit. Like in Baldur's Gate II, if you get your whole team super strong, rested up, spells ready, THEN you can MAYBE take on one dragon with a whole team of guys. Or you can go fight a lich that will destroy your characters from existence.

The elder scrolls games (MW/oblivion at least) just have generic monsters and nothing really amazing going on.

No blancing eh?

The mobs for a lot of classes/players are a bit to tough, but if you move the difficulty slider even a hair back things are too easy.

That's kind of what I was hoping for to get me playing again.

Didn't anyone else get bored after the first 15 hours into it? I think I hit lvl 19 or so on my highest character and just stopped playing.

Don't know exactly what it was that made me stop playing, guess I'm getting ADD in my old age.

Wow, the games been out what, 2 and a half months and this is it?

I wish that developers/publishers would learn lessons from companies like Stardock and Epic that not only release timely patches that actually fix important issues, but come bundled with a metric ton of 'free' additional stuff as well
