An unofficial patch to fix bugs in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion

Unofficial Oblivion Patch is a free patch for the popular Oblivion role-playing game. It is the fourth installment in the open-world fantasy series of The Elder Scrolls games. The bug patch aims to fix several bugs found in the unmodified game. Oblivion was released well over a decade ago, and with the addition of Skyrim to the series of The Elder Scrolls, the developers no longer release bug patches.

This unofficial patch is unsupported by official game developers. Still, there is quite an active gaming community dedicated to this collaborative project. Unfortunately, the patch only works for fixing bugs in the base game, and it does not include bug patches for various other DLCs.

Fixes thousands of bugs

The developers of Oblivion are somewhat notorious for releasing games with bugs. That's partly due to the size and open-world nature of the games they create. Unofficial Oblivion Patch aims to address as many of Oblivion's bugs as possible. It resolves over 2,500 bugs and also fixes placement errors for 70,000 objects.

Compatibility concerns

There are understandable concerns about compatibility with other mods, especially given the high number of fixes that the patch resolves. Unofficial Oblivion Patch does this by loading first so that conflicting mods can overwrite the patch's changes. In this way, the game will still work even if the patch doesn't fix any bugs.

Workarounds for glitches

The patch uses a series of workarounds to fix the game's bugs. For example, it disables vampire aging to prevent the playable character faces from reverting to the default male face after being cured of vampirism.

Effective but not perfect

The patch's bug fixes do work, but they are limited regarding what they achieve compared to the original game's developers. Many fixes involve disabling or moving things, but players can also modify patch settings by disabling certain fixes if needed.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.
