However if the mod simply contains replacement textures for example (such as the LOD Texture Replacement mods below), then instead of waiting for a new version, you can fix them yourself - see the Updating Mods section at the bottom of this page for instructions.Īlso, make sure you defragment your system after installing this (or any) patch, to ensure smoother gameplay. Typically you need to wait for the mod author to release a newer version if it is a complex mod. It should be noted that some of your mods may not work properly once you have patched the game to a newer version. Make sure to select the appropriate one for your version and locality. Note: There are two versions of the patch - one for people who have Shivering Isles installed, and one for other Oblivion users which is listed further down the patch download page. For more details of this see the new bLandscapeBlend variable under the Advanced Tweaking section, as well as the Highly Recommended Mods section further below for details of the new 'pepper' effect applied to landscapes, and how you can change/remove it. Most notably the patch implements some optimizations to LOD (Level of Detail), so that as you wander the game world the blurry distant LOD Textures transition more smoothly to the sharper Detail Textures as you get closer to them. The latest changes include a range of bug and quest fixes, including fixing a major Form ID bug caused by the Shivering Isles expansion. The patch contains all the fixes from the previous patches, and the full list of changes is here. This patch brings the game up to Version.
