Been away a long time and now starting fresh.

Did you install all of the prerequisites? You should have installed the Wrye Python 02 package.

 

 

Edit: Do you have Oblivion installed outside of the default folder (if you are not using WinXP)?

 

Yeah I just reinstalled the pre-reqs just to be sure and went and made sure their folders had Full Security access to run as I'm on Win7 and thought that might have something to do with it. Speaking of which the default directory for my Oblivion game is C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion

 

Make any difference?

Win7 and Vista users should not install Oblivion to the default directory. Reinstall it, if that is where you have the game installed.

 

 

Edit: I use more general terms (i.e., "Documents" and "Program Files) when referring to standard Windows folder because they differ slightly for XP and non-XP setups.

Damn. Ok I'll get on that. By the way, you don't know if being a 64bit OS will cause trouble with some of these Python programs do you?

 

Thanks again for your patience!!

Not at all.

Uninstalled and about to reboot but I have yet MORE questions... :P (tell me to shove off at any point!)

 

After installing the game into a non-default location, do I need to reinstall each of the items on your "Preparing for Mods" page? Or they're fine still?

 

And the BOSS Master List Manager is a Word macro thing. What if I don't have Word installed on my machine? I can edit the document in my Google docs of course but will not having Word on this machine keep this item from working?

You need to reinstall them, especially the executables. You do not have to reinstall the Bash prerequisites or the runtime update of course. Only utilities installed in the Oblivion folder need to be reinstalled. You do not have to use BOMM. Updating the masterlist txt file yourself as you need to is fine as well. BOMM would make things easier, but most users do not have it, anyway.
