Good evening,

Does anyone know of available code/functions on the net for reading and writing Fallout plug-ins? It could be in C++ or any other language. I know several modders have successfully done this (such as ElminsterEU with Fo3Edit), but I'm looking for samples of code I could use as an example for writing a program that reads-in the ESP's records, modifies some things, and writes them back out again.

Any help or links would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Miax

You've got several options here - Wrye Bash, if you're fine with python. TESSnip - C#. CBash - C++. All these tools come bundled with their source. I suggest that you start off with TESSnip - It's quite easy to make sense of and should do for most simple operations like reading and writing records.

Thanks much shadeMe!

I'll take your advice and start with TESSnip.

Cheers,

Miax
