I really don't know, since I never went looking for reasons WHY it
happened. The one thing I'm thinking is that the patch couldn't back
something up that it wanted to (it may require an old copy for certain
things) since the patch requires something like 1.2gig of HD space.
1.2 Gig of game +1.2 gig of patch = an amount bigger than the 2 gig
partition size.
You can patch anyway and not have the backup thing done, but I'm
thinking it's failing somehow.
If you have the room, then maybe there's no problem.
Or it's maybe as simple as everyone else running the 1.1 patch
(downloaded when it came out) whereas I'm stuck with the 1.11 patch
since I'd stopped playing when 1.1 came out.

I really don't know, since I never got into mod making.
There's an official editor you can download, and some guides.
In addition there's a few sites around that are devoted to mod making
and have other user made guides for download as well as forums for you
to ask questions in.
I think I tried the lightsaber mod once, but didn't care for it much
(I'm not a huge Star Wars fan), but there are various other I do use.
Backpack (doubles backpack size, which is very handy since you can't
hire a packmule in multiplayer and i'm playing solo.)
NiceUIMod (removes the gray bar from the screen and the two bottles on
the bottom left - I know I never clicked on those to drink potions, I
just hit the hotkeys)
Nolvl (which removes the "you're not big enough to start here/be here"
nonsense - since I was consistently walking into places that the
programmers felt I couldn't be in yet.)
There's a couple viewpoint related ones i've tried (Seefar and
Nivisec_View_100) both of which let you see farther and change the
camera angle more. -Nivisec even lets you look upward.)
