This problem also occurs if you are using the Direct2Drive version of Shivering Isles as the current patch is not compatible with it.

Any PC users who installed the first Shivering Isles beta patch (version ) need to uninstall and reinstall Oblivion in order to install the final version of this patch. The other reason for this error message is that you previously installed one of the Shivering Isles beta patches. European and Australian discs have a different patch than North America game disc.

On the PC, if you get an error message about "Old file not found", first check that you downloaded the correct version of the patch (Shivering Isles and vanilla Oblivion have two different patches) or the correct English patch version. Bethesda's Shivering Isles FAQ provides additional information about SI-related issues. The FormID bug that is fixed by this patch affects all versions of Oblivion (even if Shivering Isles has not been installed) and therefore should be installed by all players. The bottom left corner of the Video screen will read "Version 1.2.1" if this FormID patch has been installed without this patch it will read "Version 1.2" (if other previous patches have not been installed, the version may be missing completely or may read "Version 1.1").įor PC users there are two distinct versions of this patch: one is specifically for users who have installed Shivering Isles and the other is for users who have not installed Shivering Isles (both versions are available for all localized versions of Oblivion/SI). To confirm that the FormID patch has been installed, Xbox 360 users should check the "Video" screen under "Options". Xbox 360 users will automatically be prompted to download the patch when they connect to Xbox Live. This is the final version of the FormID patch, and was released on. This patch is available for download for PC users and over Xbox Live for Xbox 360 users. Installing only disk 1 gives Oblivion version 1.1.425.
