Temple77

My game started to CTD anytime I was fast traveling. After fixing this my game started fade to black, move to the third person view and I would die after minute. I found the the third person issue was related to Dawnguard and the hex file fix here corrected it. The massive heart attack dying stopped after I unloaded Realistic Needs mod. The remaining issue is the screen fades to black and snaps back to normal. A good way to describe it would be my character is slowly falling asleep only to have his head snap up. This ss getting annoying and I can't find anything on it or figure out a fix. Also wondering if all these issues are related to the Dawnguard error as something is triggering the game to cause the errors. Such as I am becoming a werewolf or vampire, which than triggers the screen changes and Realistic to kill my character as it thought it has a lethal has a disease, Has anyone experience this?

So I just started Dead Money,I did buy and installed via Steam when it came out but didn't play it until now (I'm adding because this may be relevant) This issue is when I activate the autodoc, the game goes into a cinematic like scene centering me on view of her exiting the autodoc and after the conversation I can't exit this view and move. The dialog starts by mentioning she is looking around the fountain and wondering where the hologram of Elijah is being broadcasted from, which is skipping something. After the conversation finishes (after I say "Goodbye") my character just stands there like the cinematic scene didn't complete and thus I can't move. I went to the fountain after recruiting dean and dog/god and triggered the second series of quest (putting people in place to pull switches or something) thus I am thinking set a variable with Christine that is preventing me from starting the recruiting dialog. i reset the quest and the trigger quest with the consul and still receiving the same error. Also couldn't see any variable for Christine or the quest that would jump the dialog when I displayed it. The reason I mention that I purchased Dead Money, I was looking up this topic and saw one of the explanations as something which would happened is Dead Money was pirated. Since I have installed a (or few) patches since dead money was install, would it cause the game to think that Dead Money was pirated? If so would redownloading the DLC from steam correct this issue? Also I am running a file that allows Fallout to use 4 GB of memory as a mod increased the number of people in the game. The massive battles which now occur cause the normal version of the game to crash. I have tried both versions of the game to no luck thou. My biggest issue is I use quicksaves as way to combat the crashes, well make it easier to save. Thu I don't have a current save before I started Dead Money and would lose about 20hours to revert, which I am trying to avoid. Any suggestions on what to try to fix this?

If you are talking about Legate, I did that and shot the bastard but only knock him unconscious. Does anyone know if there Is a mod or console command and to remove essential from Legate?

I never completed the don't tread on the bear quest it just popped up so made sure to avoid it. I have only used the console commands as a work around the game not allowing you to do the "you know when it happens" quest twice.

Well is there a switch I need to hit? It keeps telling me the tent is open from the other side and won't let me in.

So I am trying to complete the NCR and Yes-Man endings using the the same character. Trying to do as much as I can before breaking off for each story line. The problem started when I saved the POTNCR in the Yes Man with the goal of advancing that and not setting off the don't treed on the bear quest. It didn't but now that Colonel Moore has giving me the quest, I can't do it. I have tried resetting quest but it only allows me to tell Grant about the sniper. I tried setting the stage (setstage 00136166 100) for Eureka command but that skips the General and Chief Engineer leaving only a map maker for Legate camp. I get there and kill everyone but Legate is still in his freaking tent which I can't open. I'm stuck so I use the command move to quest maker thinking it might trigger the final fight. Only Legate go hostile when I show up in his tent so no ability to talk. This makes him essential so I can't finish the damn game. Anyone have any ideas on a work around or I am sol and need to go to an earlier save? Man I should have read a walk through before playing the game and I might have avoided this.

To me Yes Man was just a proxy for yourself. You take out House but keep his power and ability for yourself with Yes Man working for you instead of Benny. So I sided with myself. Then again I can't finish the game as Legate won't leave his tent so haven't seen what happens at the end.

I fixed this by loading the new Live Games from Microsoft. Also ran into a problem where the patched version doesn't run with multiple displays where as the unpatched game ran. I turn off the extra display to my TV and the patched game worked. Other people online had to disconnect multiple video cards if installed. Now my problem is I can run the game using FOMM, the FOSE loader independent of FOMM and Fallout 3 loader. However I can load the game from FOSE when launched from FOMM.
