    Totally but I think krimzin is working on other stuff right now. I posted my previous post+links for DJBnw so he could use those for the time being. This post is actually more than 2 months old, DJBnw was thread necromancing.

    By the way, the screenshot doesn't show the full mod list. You should use the load order report, then copy clipboard and paste it here. Never use the FOMM auto mod sorter though, it will screw up your load order.

    Since most of my work I posted on Nexus are only samples, I didn't really bother about the text. It's just to prevent ripping. But... I will repeat this again, I'll keep on working on the text. :wacko: Thank you for feedback. :thanks: By the way, have you purchase any photoshop plug-ins before? Like Topaz, is it worth the money?

    CTD support

    in Mod Troubleshooting

    Posted

    I'm unsure... Are you using the latest version of FOMM? Try using the older version, see if it works.

    Edit: Taken from http://www.hardforum.com

     

    Fallout 3 Installer installs a Beta release of DOTNETFX3.0 (.NET Framework 3.0). For users of .NET Framework 3.0 SP1 or even SP2 (Service Pack of the Framework not the OS), upon restarting their system (when changes take place), their game will be quite unstable.

     

    Users of .NET 3.5 or Vista should have even more random crashes.

     

    I guess you need to install older versions of .NET

    You do not need to reinstall the game again. Now that you've reinstalled, straight away install FOMM. Do not install all the piles of mod at an instant. Slowly pick the one that you want (I recommend installing DLC's first then overhaul mods first), install the mods one by one and start the game, see if there is still CTD. The important thing is FOMM, you must be able to start it.

    Just place all of your companion mods before [X] Mart's Mutant Mod.esp. Before an overhaul mod. The final one would be T.R.A.S.C.H.

     

    Example:

    ...(.esm files should be way above)

    Strange graphic problem

    Blackouts under XP - taken from http://www.nma-fallout.com

    ------------------

    If they only happen infrequently, you might consider ignoring the problem. If you bring a new screen with the 'C' or 'P' key and close it again, it will have wiped the blackness off the screen. This can reduce the problem to a minor nuisance.

     

    OK, let me clarify things once and for all for those who are having problems launching the game or having blackouts in the game under Windows XP. Now, there is a workaround thats gonna cause a bit of inconvenience but it works for many old games including Fallout 1&2.

     

    There is an option in XP in your hardware>device manager that allows you to disable your video card - do it! (dont worry, you will still be getting descent graphics), then restart your computer, close all your background programs on the taskbar(optional) and voila!

     

    Note: This solution was tested only for ATI Radeon 6500 and 9000.

     

    Also, if you need any patches(like "children fix" for UK version), some info or tweaks then check this site (http://www.teamx.ru/eng/files/utils/index.shtml)

     

    I found this great article on how to optimize Windows XP by trimming some fats off it Check it out, Its a life-saver (http://www.3dluvr.com/content/article/123)

     

    You can try turning down the amount of hardware acceleration on your computer, which can be found at Desktop -> Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Troubleshoot. Try different settings on the hardware acceleration slider and see how they work.

     

    Another thing you can try is adjusting the priority of the Fallout process. To do this, alt+tab (if this doesn't work, skip this step and just press ctrl+alt+del, which should minimize the game and bring up the Task Manager anyway) out of the game while it is running and press ctrl+alt+del. In the Windows Task Manager, click on the Processes tab and find the Fallout process, it will have 'Fallout' in the name. Right click on the process and choose "Set Priority" adjust this and see what effect it has on the game.

     

    You can also try what helped a previous user by the name of duc:

     

    Disable AGP Fast Writes in the System bios:

    this is usually under chip set or PCI settings.

     

    Disable AGP Write Combining:

    For the Latest Nvidia Forceware Drivers this is under display properties -> settings tab -> advanced -> troubleshooting

    and may only show up under certain hardware / driver combinations

     

    Disclaimer:

    These tweaks may only help certain hardware / software combinations, the result for me was improved fallout 1 stability and a reduced number of blackouts. Both of these settings give only a very small performance boost (~= 1%) and can have nasty system stability side effects so there is really not much reason to leave them on.

     

    Here is a thread about running the DxWindow application to avoid blackouts.

    Fallout Decorator Assistant

    in Discussion

    Posted

    So far I don't think there's such a mod for Fallout 3 yet. I think it's less interesting to decorate in Fallout 3, but it's totally different in Oblivion. Fallout 3 has junk clutters while Oblivion has lots of cool clutters for you to decorate. Maybe that's the reason it hasn't been made. Would you rather decorate your house with tin cans and scrap metals or shiny colourful awesome glass potion bottles? :rolleyes:
