Fallout: NV 4GB doesn't utilize 4GB of RAM

So, I use ENB of the Apocalypse, with a bunch of other Nexus Mods for my Fallout: New Vegas.

 

Now, I know I could easily run them all if I utilize 4GB of RAM, I have 8GB available so I could definitely do that.

 

So I have the Fallout: NV Ultimate Edition with all the DLC, so I had to run a specific line in the fallout4gb.exe shortcut I made, here it is; (under target)

 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout New Vegas\4GB Fallout New Vegas\fnv4gb.exe" -SteamAppID 2028016

 

Because before it only worked for the basic edition.

 

The problem is, when I load it up, I check task manager and it only caches up to around 950MB of RAM and then crashes when I exceed around that limit.

 

It never reaches 4GB - it just crashes because i'm out of memory.

 

why is this?

Because you have the wrong SteamAppId. It's either 22380 or 22490

 

The tool doesn't care what edition you have.

 

I would guess that it is launching the default new vegas launcher instead of launching the game directly?

Ah, yes. I fixed this. Now it utilizes 4GB.

 

But, it won't load my ENB anymore... this is weird.

 

Any fix for this?

add this option to the command line before the -appid one

 

-laaexe FalloutNV4GB.exe

 

 

 

When I do that, it crashes when it opens. It shows the first slider of the loading screen and stops responding.
