SMB92 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Well besides FNVedit, a more comprehensive patching tool is Wrye bash or Wyre Flash as it's known in NV. It takes a bit of practice, but once you know how to use it you can't live without it, and I know that first hand cos I can't live without it XD. You can never really get a perfect merged patch, it's always best to make your own patch with FNVedit and enter the overrides in manually. Me personally? I got pretty good with Wyre bash so now I make all my own mergeable patches after bashing (bashing is the term given for merging). It doesn't use Windows, it needs Python (which you can get for Windows of course). Look into further on google, it would take me all day to write a tutorial of it XD EDIT: I'd be happy to explain some basic about it if you can manage to get it all installed properly. Here's what you need: Wrye Bash - http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/35003Wrye Python - http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionUtilities.Detail&id=44 Instructions: Install the Wrye Python. This version I have linked you to is a bit old, was for TES4 but should all be the same. I lost the exact link but this should do. It comes with a all in one installer, it will install about 5 different things, just keep clicking install until it's over. Follow install instructions on Wrye Flash page, pretty easy. Now go to your data folder where there should now be a folder called "Mopy" if you installed correctly. Find the file "Wrye Bash Launcher" and send a shortcut of it to desktop. If Python is installed correctly it will have a yellow and blue document style icon. Double click to run it. If by chance it doesn't run and nothing happens then I've linked you to the wrong Wrye Python. I think this is the right one though. (only difference is Python version, this one is 2.5 but it may need 2.7) If so go here: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/22368 and download the last file in the files list, Wrye Python 08. And there you go :smile: - @Everyone - feel free to add your 20c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorkel Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Got the python source to install properly (had to use the last link) http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/22368 <--- As for the bash proper, I didn't really get it to install properly. And couldn't really find any decent install tips to follow.(I would say didn't find any install instructions)I might just be dense, but I have problem following very loosely instructions, but once I know how I don't quite tend to forget it.So I will stick with the FNVedit for now.

SMB92 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 yeah it was v2.7 of python that was needed, funny, Wrye Python 04a from the Oblivion Wrye bash worked, but 08 doesn't... Arwell thanks for the link i'm sure people will appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
