I apologize for this no longer working for some of you. I haven't had Fallout 3 loaded on my computer in years (hence the last update being from 2012), and while FO3 is my first love of games from Bethesda, I have no plans to return to it at this time (who knows if I will get nostalgic in the future).
That said, I have no idea why it wouldn't work. It was a simple crafting list for repairs, using items available in the base game. The only addition was the integration of AA, which I put as a separate mod, in case people wanted more items. Unless an item was removed from the game that I'm unaware of, it should be functional??
Hey, I downloaded the mod and it didn't work for me either. I looked into it and turns out it's a problem with the folder structure of your ZIP file. If you install it with a mod manager it will install without an error. Since the folder structure is wonky though the game will only see the "xtras" files and the manager will install all the versions at once in subfolders invisible to the game. I assume that's what the other people have been doing and therefore couldn't get it to run. After I selected the version I wanted and configured it to load manually in (my case) Mod Organizer 2 it worked like a charm. Wonderglue for the win!
If you ever want to fix it maybe think about creating an installer or different file structures or different ZIP files. Idk. Anyway. Thanks for creating the mod in the first place.
tl;dr HOW TO FIX - unpack the ZIP file manually - delete all the versions you don't want (including the subfodlers) - put the version you want (for me it was from the NORMAL FOLDER the BA_Repair_GOTY.esp) in the upper most folder - just re-ZIP the folder again and install it normally with your mod manager
Your mod doesn't work at all. I have like 5 mods: One for sprinting 4 for making my ironsights work. I have uninstalled reinstalled, manually and automnatically instaled the mod. Nothing works. I have the most updatet version FOSE and the original FO3 . Whatever you did to those files (or didn't) they don't work in a basically vanilla game (When I say vanilla game I mean unmodded, yet including any or all official DLC; In my case it is the GOTY edition). It is really sad, because this seemed to be the most simple and compatible one.
I'm not sure if anyone can help me with this. I had this in my list of mods, then I updated some textures to make them more hirez, then this mod just quit working. I click on the cans, wonderglue, etc., and my game ctd's. Anyone else having this problem?
NOTHING works to repair my armor, works with guns, sadly doesn't work with DLC. The main reason I was looking for a mod was because of my fucking armor. And this one doesn't seem to work with armor (tried wonderglue and tin cans, supposed to work with everything) And it can't repair my metal helmet or regulator duster.
I used this mod when Fallout 3 first came out. It was so good that I still remembered it when I got my Fallout 3 GOTY edition and came here to get it. A wonderful mod - however, a heads up for people using NMM: NMM will install two folders with all the files listed by the creator into the Data folder. You need to manually move whichever version of ba-repair.esp is correct for you out of those folders and into the Data folder.
Useful mod, much appreciated. There is a bug or a glitch of some sort that occurs when I sell (not when I buy) to vendors; I select all the stuff I want to sell and when I press the ok button for the transaction the game exits. Please help, don't really want to continuously activate/deactivate the mod for me to avoid this bug (

can fix mod but to dumb to delete comment.
such is life.

EDIT: Never mind, works now. Weird.
