I think the new design is pretty cool, lots of great features. Keep up the good work.

When you run MasterUpdate mode a window will open and start to list all the mods that you have checked in FOMM. You will know if it is working properly if the mods you have checked in FOMM are in bold type. This means the Master flag has been set. Once this has stopped just close the window and start your game. If this is not what happens, check your spelling first, FO3MasterUpdate. If the spelling is correct, download the latest version and re-install. Make sure all files included in the download are extracted to your Fallout folder.

This forum is for Fallout 3 not Fallout New Vegas. ;) A simple solution is download the Unlimited Companions mod. Fixed the same issue for me.

EDIT: You create the merged patch with FO3Edit and then run Masterupdate. The patch has to be created first. ;)

There should be 3 copies of the exe. in your Fallout folder. One is the default, FO3Edit, the other two should be FO3Masterupdate and then FO3MasterRestore. Once you have all three create short-cuts to the desktop. I usually right click and select run as admin. That's all you need to do and the program will automatically know which mode to run. Once you run Masterupdate you will have to run MasterRestore if you want to make changes and so on.

Well here it is...Fallout New Vegas...and Steam. I may well be one of the few players that does not have internet where I live. This is by choice, I can't afford $70 a month. So that's it? I'm screwed? I think I can drag my pc to work and pull off the initial installation but will the game require a connection to play even after it's installed? Bummed...really bummed...

I had the same problem and the only way I was able to save changes was to 'tab' through a few times to get the feel of where it starts over and then hit 'enter'. Might take a bit to get it right but worked for me eventually.

The quest should be start game enabled and your scripting lines need to be in the result script end box at the bottom of the dialog menu.

Yes all ESM's always load before esp's.

Shifty you need to move all of your active ESM's up to the top of the load order.

You can try to run FO3 Edit in Master Update mode. This usually works for me to get the skin colors a better match. Here are the links to the Nexus files. http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=637 F03 Edit http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8629 F03 Edit Manual Search for the section titled Master Update in the Manual. This program is also great to find and resolve conflicts between different mods.

There are a few resources available on Nexus. This is one of my favorites when creating new characters. http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1837

The sniper rifle in the first pic is from Alex Scorpion Sniper gear available on NEXUS, not sure about the other one.

You need to create another short-cut like you did for FO3MasterUpdate and name it FO3MasterRestore.

I had originally purchased the DLC's separately also and didn't have any trouble installing them in any particular order. You will want to set your load order in FOMM in the same order in which they were released. Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, and Zeta. Use patch 1.7.

You can change this through dialog options with her. Look for the 'lets get naked' or 'remove your default clothes' dialong lines. Then just put whatever you want her to wear into her backpack (inventory).

This happened to me once. Try sitting in a chair, this usually resets the player screen position. Worked for me.

You can try using FO3 Edit and run the program in Master Update Mode. This will even out the textures for most npc's. Here are the links to the Nexus files. FO3 Edit http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=637 FO3 Edit Manual http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8629

I don't think you are supposed to use the DC Combo edition if you are using the separate plug-ins for DC Interiors.

Make sure the door you are using does not have a script attached. When you select the door marker in the render window, right click to rotate with your cursor over the marker. Alternately, you can hold down either the 'z' or the 'x' or the 'y' , right click and drag to change position. It is also a good idea to have snap to grid and snap to angle selected when positioning markers. To move a selected reference vertically, hold down 'z' and left click- drag up or down.

You need to create a simple quest and add a script. Make sure the quest is start game enabled and make sure your script is marked as a quest script. Scn DaftshadowItemSCRIPT begin gamemode player.additem your item == 1 end I think this should work.

This is my favorite NEXUS file that I use when creating characters. DIMONIZED presets for Vanilla races V1dot3 http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1837 The best part about this file is it needs no other files to work and once you have created your character, you can de-activate it safely.

To make npc's and creatures do what you want them to you need to give them AI packages. Here is a link to the GECK page and some great tutorials to get you started. http://geck.bethsoft.com/index.php/Main_Page

Your load order is pretty messed up. Start by moving all of your master files (ESM) to the top of the load order. The DLC's should load in the order in which they were released. The Pitt, Anchorage, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, Zeta. I would also try to cut back on the amount of mods you are using. Start with just a few and build your load order over the course of a few weeks, not all in one day. Usually when I start a new game, I will run just the Fallout3 ESM until I leave the vault. Then before I add any user created mods, I play for a few hours first to make sure my game is stable without any mods, then start adding one at a time, checking as I go, fast-travel, try to make my game crash. It takes a while this way but it is worth the effort. I personally use just over 100 in my load order and my game crashes maybe once a week. Something I can live with at this point. Hope this helps.
