Wrye Bash is the best tool available for all Elder Scroll games. I spend weeks to get a stable FCOM installation and I finally got a virtually crash free setup once I a) switched to boss and b) stripped down the bash options to a minimum Loot support for oblivion is minimal to say the least. I'd stay away from 'import cells' which might screw up nav meshes and -see above- import npc faces.Īnd finally, trust the fcom pros at beth forums and use boss, not loot, to sort your LO. Dont follow any step guide to the letter, use your brain to decide what you need and what you want to merge. If you *need* a bashed patch pretty much depends if you have mods that add items/creatures to leveled lists, mods like OOO/MMM/Frans certainly need a merged patch. You dont need and you dont want to install mods with bash.

In one case bash assigned a 2g hair length to a npc which unsurprisingly made the engine crash.indeed a bit hard to render xD Is it really a good idea to merge npc faces? Does it even make sense?Īlways check your patch for errors with TesEdit and if TesEdit complains about illegal records, take that serious. The less you merge and the more you resolve conflicts via load order, the better. Bash is not a NASA sponsored AI program, it tries to merge records according to some formal rules and it often gets it wrong. $19.95 (download) or $19.In my not so limited experience with bash, be very wary with bashed patches.
