I don't understand the fascination with duplicating items. I never read how to duplicate items the regular way, but by setting my repair hammer to a hotkey, the game accidentally duplicated several of my items as I repaired them. I found it to be very annoying. I have no less than 5 Umbra swords. I have many duplicates of quest-specific weapons and armor.

Sure, I can sell the extra crap, but it's not like the game withholds money from you. You can find items to sell in dungeons and caves for great prices and boost your mercantile skill at the same time. I don't understand why so many are crying about the fix for item duplication.

I'm glad Bethesda are getting off their collective asses to fix problems that should not have made it in the final game. $60 is too fucking much to pay for a beta version. At least, the FFXI beta was free with a copy of February's OXM.

In Mystery and Harlun’s Watch, the dead body you are supposed to find will no longer disappear from Swampy Cave if you cleared out the dungeon before starting the quest.

i dont know if this is a list of everything done by the patch but i know its a lot it.  Also this is the PC and 360 bug fixes not just the 360.


The update fixed all the glitches but this quest is still not fixed.....wtf...i still can't finish up the fighter's guild quest.....if i knew this wouldn't work....i wouldn't even bother to update.

On the original Xbox, the updates were store in with the normal game saves, so if you didn't want it anymore, you could just delete it.

Is there a way to "undo" the auto update from the HDD? The file has to save somewhere. Does anyone know how to remove the auto update?

It surprises me that so many people on here are actually complaining about the glitches being corrected in the new update.  What's the point of paying $60 for a glitchy game?  As soon as I connect to live (yes, I haven't been on there for some reason in the past couple days), the first thing I'm doing is putting in Oblivion to fix the many glitches that I found apparent, as I think glitches, beneficial or not, take away from the game.

If you downloaded the update, but don't want it anymore you can go into the memory tab and select the HDD. Press y... then press x,x,left shoulder, right shoulder, x, x and it will get rid of the update. Here is the link that I found this info out from (I don't want to take credit for someone elses find).

I went ahead and completed the Clavicus Vile (who dreams up these stupid names?) Daedric quest. The game glitched again, but it didn't freeze. In its stead, the game "let" me keep the five Umbra swords, and I received the Masque of Clavicus Vile. I'm, at least, grateful that the swords weigh nothing because the game won't let me unequip, drop or sell them. sleep.gif

regardless of the ability to dupe or not, everyone should download this update.  Oblivion runs smoother and loads faster.  Why would anyone pass that up?  Dupe a ton of shit, put it in your house and then update.

Some people got a system update and thought it was the Oblivion update. This update had nothing to do with Oblivion and as such did not alter the ability to duplicate. These people jumped the gun and claimed that the Oblivion update did not fix the dupe glitch. What the Oblivion update did NOT do was remove already duped items. I have never duped items except to test it and I reloaded after that. I am glad they fixed it because of the fact that IT IS A BUG!

As for the body not reappearing after the update... those kinds of fixes require you to begin a new game. At this point the body is already gone so the fix won't apply. Bethesda support representatives have stated that the intent was to fix glitches for "new" games.

umm NO, I got the system update messed with it for a while, then started oblivion up and updated, I am still able to dupe items. Just to make sure i took oblivion out, restarted and put it in, no prompt for update, and still able to dupe items.
