Arkath

So, now for Arkath's Problem thread #512! \ Anyway. It seems that when I load up a new cell, I sometimes lose all custom textures. Period. Characters skins (minus face) becomes pink, lots of red Exclamation points, etc. All Regular Fallout 3 Textures load fine. Also: The sky inside Megaton turned into a scrapyard. Its like I was inside a huge junk pile, shrunk down. (new idea for mod?) Changing cells will randomly fix the problem, and repeated reloading/restarting the game also fixes it. Almost always happens in towns.

So, FO3W seems to not like me. Sometimes, Primary needs will work. Others, it won't. Everytime, when I install a new batch of mods the Primary needs part stops working. Resting restores the sleep part, but not the eating or drinking. Thing is, the mods I download don't alter food nor drink. Putting at the bottom causes problems (varies. Mostly it just won't start/load), and putting at the top doesn't fix it. Using FOM causes the game to crash (irony), only the built in auto sort works. Any ideas? Edit: Fixed. Putting it on the bottom is the fix; I just forgot I got the Robco fix for it as well. Meaning it was trying to load a fix for a mod it didn't know existed yet.

First: I have a problem "finding" the save games. Sometimes, when I select Load Game (from the main menu, not the save itself) the game crashes, as if having a hard time finding the loading folder. I installed Fallout 3 correctly. This will sometimes happen 3-5 times in a row, but is never permanent. As such, is more of a nuisance than anything. Most often happens after a crash. Second: Problems saving. This problem has been beaten to death, but I think mine is a bit unique. I only have problems saving once I hit level 4 or 5. The problem continues up through 9 (I have not yet gotten farther in a modded game). Killing my character DOES work, but certain areas become unsavable. Areas include: The area around Megaton; Rivet City; Area around Rivet City; Springvale; Springvale school; 3 Random Wasteland Locations (no markers nearby). I have also had a hard time loading the area outside of Megaton on one save, however the problem has not repeated itself. I run over 100 mods, and have no problem with compatibility or load order as far as I know. I will post my order upon request, however as I do not know forum scripting, it would be in 9 or more individual photobucket links, which can be very cumbersome to look over. SO! Any help in that area, as well, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

In Load Order (should be, anyway) http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-1.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-2.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-3.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-4.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-5.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-6.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-7.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-8.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/ad308/mortalgod6/Mods-9.jpg 8 and a half pages of mods. If anyone takes the time to root through it and help me fix it, I would love you forever. :D Edit: Ok, so, the text is tiny. I'll redo it tommorrow. Its 5:30 am here. >.>

I fixed it: It was what I thought. Too many Warhammer play race mods active at once. Thank you for the tool, though. I'm sure I'll get frustrated with something soon and use it. haha Edit: New Problems. Think its just time to use FOIC...Is there a newer FOMS yet? I have 2, but it doesn't recognize half my mods. I'll post my mod list, so maybe I can avoid using FOIC. As thankfull for it as I am, I would rather avoid resetting. Even if it would be for the best.

So, I did bad. I downloaded and added slightly over 100 mods (122 files, counting patches, .part files (deleted), etc) to around 50-65. Everything was working, but it will not load my save (in which my character is a Tau) and when I try to make a new game (loading from the entrance to vault 101), my character is see through (in the choose your race part), meaning I can see my eyes, teeth, part of a chin, etc, but nothing else. Its got a red backdrop, so its a little creepy, haha. Also: I have 3 copies of each race. 3 Eldar, 3 Hispanic, 3 Necron, 3 asian, etc. I have several War40k mods installed over one another (which I will correct). I think either that, or the hair pack mod is the culprit. I installed it incorrectly (instead of unzipping, I just straight up forced FOMM to install it), however I uninstalled it and deleted the file and it has not fixed anything. Honestly, though, I think its Hair Pack, as I did this many things in oblivion and never had this trouble, and I never installed a Hair Pack. Any advice, beyond not playing with so many mods?

Basically, an RL-4 (note: NOT 3) Sentry bot. If thats not detailed enough: A sentry Bot Companion that has its own unique voice, speech (i;e things he says. An example being RL-3's "Pain is just weakness leaving the body") and personality. (RL-3 was an Army man. Probably the same for the Sentry..only thing that would work Lore wise, unless you really tested the limits), is essential, or dies with the option to repair for spare parts, senors units, etc. Depending on whats broken (upon death. Being hit by a fat man would cost a lot more varied materials than, say, being shot in the legs 600 times until he died) Thanks!

So, I got my first (3) Liberty Prime companion mod(s), because I'm going through a Robco Companion kick atm. First 2 didn't work, due to numerous pathing/ai bugs, but the one I'm currently using, obviously, worked well enough. However..he can't turn in combat. In 5 hours of gameplay with him, hes shot at 7 creatures, hit 3 of them, and did good damage once. Against a Bloatfly. Now, the damage wouldn't be a problem...I have Voodoo (helheim) who one shots everything, sadly. My problem comes from his inability to attack anything unless he gets really lucky. I can't even imagine this is an animation issue..I think Liberty Prime's script for the main quest didn't call for him turning, so the model lacks the ability. Of course, I know jack squat about modding. Also: Throw more Bombs.

So, I'll start a game...everything is fine. However, after a certain amount of time (lvl5-9ish?) my save game becomes corrupt. I always have to kill myself upon loading a game, so I can save without CTDing. However, in certain areas I can't even do that. Rivet City, Tenpenny Tower, and Megaton in particular, rivet city inside and out, Tenpenny outside, and the outside of Megaton. Also: I'm on the quest "A trail of crumbs..." from a mod, and am at the Raider infested Cliff (to avoid spoilers. I assume you know what I mean). It will crash based on time inside the area. Outside is fine. I can run as fast as I can inside, from either entrance, and it times out. movetoqt and tcl help, but it does it in the next one, and I assume Mama's too. I have all my mods installed correctly, all the required resources (FOSE, Archiveinvalidation, FOMM, etc). I have a ton of mods running, and about 5-7 that FOMM will not recognize (Aerfu Expanded, Seargent RL-3 Sentry Class, etc), obviously not running, but in my Data folder. Also, I cannot leave Megaton. It crashes to blackscreen after loading the outside (i;E, I never see the outside. it crashes to black screen after the little clock finishes) I tried the FO3 trick, but did it wrong the first time and have since lost where it told me how to do it correctly.

Please, if its possible, capitalize the "M", "T", AND "S" in Meshes, Textures and Sound, please. When you don't, the simple extract often doesn't work (for me, anyway), because it won't merge into the Fallout 3 main folders for said items. While this is in general an easy fix, it would cut down on the "OMG HALP IT DUN'T WURK!" posts in the comments section. Also: Allergys are really getting to me today, so please forgive my rage post. Thank you. -Mod Fanboi

That fixed it. It made no sense, but it fixed it. ....O.o Edit: only works for that time playing. I have to kill myself everytime I load a save. Theres a joke in here, somewhere....

After installing EvE, the pipboy re-placer whom name I don't know, and Fellout I crash upon saving my game. the ini doesn't have answers. After disabling these 3 mods, it still happens. Sometimes, it will let me save, but if I go into a new area (via personal vertabird as fast travel auto saves) and save, it'll CTD. As well, it no longer lets me leave a fixed area from my last save. This area is quite large, but on a motorcycle, is rather small. I will post screens of my FOMM (mods installed) if needed, but would prefer not to due to it being a pain in the ass. heh.

I can't seem to recall what they were called. I know one was the Anvil Bay Expansion (a search bringing up the lone file), but I'm looking for the one that o,proves them all. Imp City was a huge overhaul. It gave you a scroll at the new character creation to change settings, shutters being an option. Help?
