Wrye Bash oblivion corruption problem

[lanbladez]

Wrye Bash seems to corrupt my Oblivion launch just by opening it up. First of all I am using Win 7 x64, have UAC turned off. I have it installed in Program Files X86, but i also tried another directory same thing happened. I have vanilla oblivion installed, no mods just plain vanilla. I go to launch wrye Bash, it opens up fine and I can use it fully. But when opening wrye bash and closing it, oblivion no longer works. All i get when i launch oblivion either through obse_launcher or oblivion.exe is nothing that comes up, no black screen, no errors. I have made a backup of oblivion data folder prior to launching wrye. Deleting the data folder after running wrye and replacing with backup of data fixes oblivion launch. The problem is that i cannot figure out what wrye is corrupting in DATA folder that is making oblivion not launch, i have tried this with 292 and 293, much help would be appreciated getting to the bottom of this.

The Wrye Bash team is also trying to get to the bottom of this. You might want to post in the official thread in case you can help them find the problem. It does not affect many people but it's severe and it's obviously very high priority for them. It sounds like you may have some new information.

 

The most recent Bash thread is here: http://forums.bethso...relz-wrye-bash/

Your bug is the one that is listed as 3329021 on sourceforge, The first page has a link to it in case you want to comment there. It's in the spoiler called Additional Known Bugs on the first post.

 

Good luck.

 

edit: Here is a test request posted on the Bethesda forums by Lojack, for people who are experiencing this bug. If you try this and don't feel like joining the Bethesda forums, I can post your results over there for you.

 

@ anyone still experiencing this and willing to be a lab rat:

 

Could you try this test:

• Do a fresh install of Oblivion
• Backup the 'Data' folder somewhere safe
• Launch Wrye Bash. Don't do anything, just launch it.
• Close Wrye Bash.
• Dummy Check: try to launch Oblivion (just to make sure it actually CTD's from this and you didn't run into some strange coincidence where it didn't mess up for you)
• Do a comparison of the 'Data' directory and you backed up data folder. Things that could help track down the problem:
  • File 'modified time' differences
  • File CRC differences (or MD5, whatever)
  • Missing files
  • New files

 

If you could just post the results of that test here, it would be very useful. You could use WinMerge, or something else to do the comparisons.

EDIT: also, do this with Wrye Bash 293.

I think I found fix, installed vanilla, made backup, ran wrye bash, corruption happened. So I put back my back up, ran bash, went into mydocuments/mygames and deleted oblivion folder, reran wrye. Oblivion works no corruption can launch, bash works can create a cbash. I think the corruption happens on fresh copy of oblivion when wyre bash launches and it creates Bashed Patch, 0.esp.

Glad you fixed it. Hopefully that information will help them get rid of this problem.

I'm experiencing this issue with Wrye Bash 2.95 standalone, deleting Documents/MyGames/Oblivion didn't solve it. This is the second clean install I've done in two days and Oblivion loaded fine until installing Wrye Bash.

 

Here's my Wrye Bash.exe.log:

Wrye Bash starting
Python version: 2.7.1
wxPython version: 2.8.12.1 (msw-ansi)
input encoding: None; output encoding: None; locale: ('en_US', 'cp1252')
basher.pyo 4835 __init__: Wrye Bash in ANSI Mode
