McBaconator Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Newcomer here, been playing the Fallout franchise for about 4 years. Finally got a computer that can run Fallout 3 smoothly and with great ease, however I'm having a problem with FWE. I installed FWE using the NMM, I have FOSE installed properly and all that critical jazz. If I uncheck all of the plugins related to FWE, the game runs smoother and better than ever - if I do, it crashes on startup and then forces me to restart my computer. I've exhausted all options, here's my load order - please help me before I commit suicide: GameMode=Fallout3 Fallout3.esm=1Anchorage.esm=1ThePitt.esm=1BrokenSteel.esm=1Zeta.esm=1CRAFT.esm=1CALIBR.esm=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esm=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - Alternate Travel.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Anchorage.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Broken Steel.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Mothership Zeta.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Point Lookout.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC The Pitt.esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - Followers Enhanced (BrokenSteel).esp=1FO3 Wanderers Edition - Optional Restore Tracers.esp=0FO3 Wanderers Edition - Optional Restore Tracers (automatics only).esp=1Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release.esp=0Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release + DLCs.esp=0Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release + Project Beauty.esp=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It is probably because you have a missing master, namely Point Lookout. Point Lookout is one of the master files required for FO3 Wanderers Editon - DLC Point Lookout.esp. I also suggest that you read the sample load order that the mod author so thoughtfully provided on the FWE description page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbaxombie Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 This might help other folks in the same boat: I had the same problem until I followed this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SAeXsA6Nt8. Some of it is a bit dated now (such as the fallout interoperability program requirement) so you kind of have to wing it from there if you intend to use a bunch of major mods together (blackened seems to be the go-to mod now).

BlackRampage Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Some of it is a bit dated now That's an understatement. A lot of Gopher's Fallout 3 mod install vids are seriously outdated now. Fortunately, someone else has recently made an up to date tutorial covering how to install FWE and MMM and how to make them compatible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4y4lui3l9U.
