Hi, I was wondering which Python people are using. I went to a page where they have versions up to 3.2. I have v2.6.5. I don't know if switching to the newest is a good idea or what.

It's definitely what.

What?

What.

(You weren't sure if it was a good idea or what. It's not a good idea, so therefore it must be what. Presuming you want it for Wrye Bash, that's the only Oblivion utility I know of that needs it.)

What do you need Python for?

Then, the question would be, what does the documentation for that app / those apps recommend?


edit: No, I probably don't need to know the answers to either question.

Yes, I only wanted it for Wrye Bash. I don't have any problems so far with v2.6.5 but somebody said I needed 2.6.6 for the utility PyFFI.

Will Bash even work with 3.x? I don't think it will. Just stick with what you have. Let's just say it does work -- will it give an increase in performance? I doubt it. So there should be no reason to upgrade.

EDIT:

I'm running the Python you get from Nexus. 2.6.5, I think, and don't have any problems with PyFFI.

Ok. Thanks. The reason why I posted the question was because sometimes getting the newest file could be a problem and I wanted to be sure of what people were using.
Just like getting the newest Nvidia driver doesn't mean it will work best with one's pc.

PyFFI should work fine with 2.6.x, where x could be just about anything. It probably works just fine with 2.7.x too. Blender doesn't much care (so far) as long as you've got either 2.6.x or 2.7.x. I doubt any of the Oblivion tools have been tested on 3.x. Since Wrye Bash is the big one that uses Python, it's best to go with what it needs. The others should all fall into place.
