Long standing problem with Ling's and Wrye Bash has been solved.

[Slammer64]

If I'm posting this in the wrong forum, forgive me, but I thought my fellow players would be interesting in knowing that you can now bash Ling's properly. Seems there is an error in a component of Wrye Bash for Fallout NV that can be easily fixed. Before, you would get an error when using Wrye Bash to merge any component of Ling's Coiffure i.e.:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas\Mopy\bash\basher.py", line 5837, in Execute

patchFile.buildPatch(log,SubProgress(progress,0.8,0.9))#no speeding needed/really possible (less than 1/4 second even with large LO)

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas\Mopy\bash\bosh.py", line 20700, in buildPatch

patcher.buildPatch(log,SubProgress(subProgress,index))

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas\Mopy\bash\bosh.py", line 35045, in buildPatch

if race.maleLeftEye.modPath != raceData['maleLeftEye'].modPath:

KeyError: 'maleLeftEye'

 

The error is a simple typo on line 35042 of bosh.py: if 'femaleLeftEye' in raceData: , this should be edited to read: if 'maleLeftEye' in raceData: You can get Notepad++ and open up Mopy\bash\bosh.py and go to line 35042 and make the change. After you do this, save it and then you can use Wrye Bash to merge Ling's.

Damn good find Slammer! This always pissed me off and I never could figure out why it wouldn't work.
