Conflict with "Wallet Fix [B42]"

After requesting the aforementioned mod for it's functionality, I learned this mod seems to conflict with WalletFix[B42]. Spent a good while trying to figure out what and why it conflicts, causing a load-in crash. In the end, I stopped crashing after deleting the entries for Wallet, Wallet_Male, and Wallet_Female from the Clothing_Bags.txt file from the BetterBags mod.

Why does this fix the crash? I don't know. How does it fix it? I still don't know. What did the lines change to the wallets? literally only changed "Weight = 0.2," to "Weight = 0.1," in the wallet entries. In the end? I still don't know why a mod telling the game the same thing it already knows with a 0.1 weight difference would cause issue. But Todd Howard told me to remove those 3 entries and now.... It just works.

BetterBags is not my mod, I will not be re-uploading anything of my own altering. You have my explanation of what I did to fix the conflict between the two mods. Both I and RainMaker (Wallet Fix [B42]) worked to try reach a compatibility between the two mods, currently only Todd Howard knows WHY the workaround fixes it.

I have a Discussion on Wallet Fix [B42] page regarding the crash which contains a little bit more of the deep-dive to find and fix the conflict, but it merely ends with the same thing I've stated here.

Disclaimer: I love BetterBags, I just try doing any legwork I can when it comes to troubleshooting and fixes. Sometimes the end-user truly can make a fix the dev can use. My personal recommendation is because 0.2 vs 0.1 weight is so small, perhaps erasing those entries completely to provide *Subscribe* easy compatibility.

Cheers, survivors!
