So Is There a Way to get Wrye Bash Working on 64-Bit Systems???

[akdor1154]

I have the Wrye Archive Version working with Python 2.7 x64 happily - just make sure you install the required extensions to Python (ctypes, wxpython, and pywin32), and make sure you start it with the actual Python 2.7 x64 exe if you have multiple Pythons installed. You will also need to remove/rename CBash.dll from the Mopy directory (it's an x86 library so x64 Python can't load it).

 

EDIT: Whoops - almost forgot. Remove LZMA.dll and 7zUnicode, and replace 7z.exe and 7z.dll with 64-bit ones from the 64-bit 7zip installer at 7zip.org

Hey I'm trying to get the standalone version of WB (Skyrim) work with 7zip x64 but I always get python errors which since I'm no programmer and don't know anything about python don't tell me what's wrong. Essentially if replacing any of the included 7zip dll and exe files with the x64 ones I get an error that the temporary archive WB is using cannot be created because it doesn't exist...

I already enabled the LAA flag for WB and 7zip but it doesn't really work out that well yet. By the way... can I enable 64bit mode for WB standalone itself somehow?

Wrye Bash standalone works perfectly fine out of the box on a 64-bit system. You don't have to do anything.

Still it doesn't use 64 bit applications so it is a lot slower than it would be using the 64bit python variant.

Well are you volunteering to recode it for 64bit python?

Not in this lifetime. :D

OK i tried really hard to get this working with python but I only came at least close to dying trying ...

 

I have following issues:

I install Wrye bash 303 python with the installer and it downloads all the prerequesites itself and is happy, opens up and everything.

I uninstall python 32-bit and all the accommodating software and install

python-2.7.3.amd64.msi

wxPython2.8-win64-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe

pywin32-218.win-amd64-py2.7.exe

comtypes-0.6.2.win32.exe

in Mopy\bash\compiled

-> I rename Cbash.dll

-> I delete lzma.dll and 7z unicode

-> I replace the 7z.exe and 7z.dll with the 64-bit versions of 7z

 

The game would only give me this error:

Found Python at 'C:\Python27\pythonw.exe'

Launching Wrye Bash in debug mode

An error has occured with Wrye Bash, and could not be displayed.

The following is the error that occured while trying to display the first error:

'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 705: ordinal not in range(128)

The following is the error that could not be displayed:

Traceback (most recent call last):

bash.main()

File "bash\bash.py", line 532, in main

raise e

ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 ist keine zulässige Win32-Anwendung. <- means that it is not an allowed win32-program

 

 

Any input?

 

Edit: Reinstalling WB via installer only told me that it detected all prerequisites for the python version. still it doesn't work. Where's the culprit??? o_O'

You need to take this to the official Bethsoft Wrye Bash forum.
