FO3Edit - which version?

[Ranius7]

 

Actually, they "messed" up a great program for Oblivion with FO3. Then FNV. Then Skyrim. TES4Edit, TES5Edit, FO3Edit, and FNVEdit are all the exact same program with a renamed executable.

 

 

I just know the name of what I'm using is : FO3Edit

 

and we all would be glad to have it working just fine for the game is named after, don't we?

 

 

If you're suffering from paranoid delusions, the last version of *Edit before Skyrim was 3.0.21. You can find it here.

 

 

 

Chill out bro, you shouldn't get offended cause of my concern.

 

Since I've spent so many hours of my free time making my own mods and a reasonable doubt exists, I really want to be damn sure nothing bad could happen to my files.

 

Peace

No, Citation Not required. History here, posted by Millions already sited. Beth-soft forums noted by many there also note, later version Break fallout 3.

Okay, then Wrye Bash is a virus and will delete your system files.

 

See how stupid that sounds when I don't provide evidence to backup that claim? That's because it's false.

 

The claim you agreed to having made earlier in the thread is what I quoted in my last post: that Papyrus-related data was being saved in Fallout 3 ESPs when edited by FO3Edit. You have yet to substantiate that claim, and I don't expect that you will.

 

Attacking me? is not the right thing to do. I do not keep track of all the records here ,the nexus does and so does Google search. ... but, do not call me out, I'll have no part in it. It has not anything to do with constructiveness.

Hold your ego in check. Refuting something you stated isn't a personal attack. I asked for evidence to support an accusation about FO3Edit, and the burden of proof is on the accuser. Saying, "There's information out there," doesn't support your claim. So far, you've done nothing but spread fear and uncertainty among users.

 

As I stated above, I use the program extensively. I often alternate between the GECK and *Edit when making changes to an ESP, as some tasks are simpler in one or the other. Never has *Edit added extra data to a plugin file, and never has the GECK had problems loading and editing one afterward. I use version 3.0.31 for Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Skyrim.

 

I do read Relz threads on the Bethesda forums. I spend a lot of time here on the Nexus in the Fallout 3 and New Vegas troubleshooting forums and have for years. This is the first I've heard of a problem with recent versions of FO3Edit, and all I'm asking is that you provide support for that claim or stop making it. Either is fine with me.

Perhaps that was a bit harsh, and I apologize. This thread is ridiculous through no fault of yours.

I've read enough of Purr4me's posts to make a reasonable assumption she knows what she's talking about. But I would like to have at least some steps to follow, so I can check and verify this myself. If it's a positive, the userbase can also follow those steps and then tell Elminster to fix his buggy code, providing evidence to back it up.

 

If the oblivion/fallout/skyrim file formats are well known enough in terms of data structure and how the various records fit together, i.e what should be included and not included and how, that we've got third party applications that can read and write these formats, then we shouldn't have this kind of stuff happening.

 

EDIT: But hey, I realise bugs are bugs. ;)

I've read many of the same posts and developed the opposite impression. Curiously, the wording and content of their posts strongly remind me of a former Nexus member who was banned the day before Purr4me's account was created. I'm implying nothing, of course.

*Edit does have a few minor bugs as far as Fallout is concerned, but those bugs have always been present even in older versions.

I have had about enough of this thread.

 

You have issues with a post or a person you REPORT THEM. You don't make accusations, you don't accuse a member of being a banned member. You weren't implying..you were insinuating.

 

If you see a program is faulty and someone asks you to explain why...you of course have no reason to do so...but basically telling someone to sift through your thousands of posts here and at other sites to check your cred is likely not to get you your desired results. Either be helpful and state your case or don't post.

 

OP...I suggest you take your questions directly to the mods creators and go from there. As this thread has gone from a simple question to crap I am closing it now.~Lisnpuppy
