Can't use Plugin Tab w/Fallout 3, causes Crash

[HadToRegister]

I'm attempting to try out Vortex with Fallout 3
Whenever I click on the Plugin tab, I get this error:

"Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid Regular Expression:/Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (+Rain).esp/: Nothing to Repeat"

 

According to my search, the error message is referring to a mod for Fallout 3, called Dynamic Weather, however, I've never downloaded or installed it, and don't even have on my hard-drive.

Hmm...well, that would explain the crash, if it's looking for an .esp that never existed on your system, but that doesn't explain why it's looking for that .esp...

 

Let me try and replicate that, see if it happens to me, too.

 

EDIT: Yep, I get the same error for the same .esp that I've never downloaded.

 

EDIT 2: And if you ignore the error and try to continue anyway, the render crashes out.

I had a similar issue trying to examine Oblivion plugins, except my error is "Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid Regular Expression:/xeosp++.esp/: Nothing to Repeat". The mod is Xeo SP++ on LoversLab. I didn't even know that mod existed until I googled the .esp. I don't even recall ever using an LL mod for Oblivion.

lol, I wonder what other "goodies" we can find switching to the "Plugins" tab of other games.

Wonder what else is hanging out in the code

Looks to me like an error parsing/using the LOOT master list. The ++ and maybe the round brackets as well most likely should have been escaped in the regular expression i.e /xeosp\+\+.esp/. Been there done that myself before now.

So, something I have no power to change or edit is making it impossible to use the PLUGINS tab for Fallout 3, and for Oblivion for another person?

Doubtful. It did that error for me as soon as I switched to FO3; I didn't even get to the plugins tab. There's artifacting in the code somewhere, from something else.

I have the same issue with oblivion.

So, so far it's affecting Fallout 3 AND Oblivion.
Has anybody tried the Plugins tab for other games?
I haven't because I've got all my other Bethesda games set up with Wryebash, WryeSmash, etc...

Tab works fine for FNV, FO4, Oldrim, and SSE. At least for me.
