This is exactly the kind of problem I am having. There is something fishy about Vault 3, though I cannot say what the thing exactly is. I suggest everyone to manual save before entering Vault 3. If you encounter problems afterwards, you can easly load the save and best ignore Vault 3.

Update: I've sent a report with an uploaded save. Now just wait and I'll share any answer notified here.

The thing is that my manual save, which was just in between the quick save and the auto save, had also gone bad. Thus my 3 saves all went bad at the exactly location not 3 minutes after leaving Vault 3.

So what can I do? Upload the save so people can find the thing behind the crash and prevent it in further updates?

Oh well, thanks for trying though.

I don't have any mods running though.

I've been roaming the forum looking for similiar things and fixes about this "Corrupted save" though I did found some, not exactly the same. Basicly it just crashed while loading the save, while others seem to be still able to actually be in the game for a small moment, my game crashes directly when started to load. Autosave, quicksave and my regular save all didn't work. I do got another save, but that's just from the beginning to skip the basic parts in case I was to start over again. The story: I've just started the quest of the Brotherhood of Steel about going around vaults for parts to fix the air ventilation I've started with Vault 3, where I already have killed everyone before the quest just to explore, saved the prisoners and all that except the mechanical floor. So I was going 'round and killed those Fiends and their chieftan, grabbed the part and went out. Killed some more Fiends, and just outside walking north, I see an burning barrel with 3 Fiends around it. I quicksave, shot 2 and my game crashes. ( It does a lot, though it is not a big deal since I quick save a lot. ) Here the problem starts. I start up NV again, try to load all the three saves without any succes of loading the game without crashing during the loading. I tried restarting, back saves etc. without any succes. Details: I still had to decide the fate of Mr.House, since the NCR noticed he was spying on both Legion and NCR, after I had activated his powerful army,and gave him the platinum chip. My standing with the NCR was accepted, was hatred with the normal gangs and Ceasar's Legion + Freeside, since the quest for NCR told me to kill a man of the local gang, The Kings. I kindof slaughtered them all, and NCR and Freeside were both disappointed. The Boomers vowed for me, killed everyone at The Tops and did most of the NCR quests along the river border. Point Charlie was slaughtered due to talking to the ranger in Primms, which left my quest to update the radio codes unable to finish. And a lot of other things such as wearing armor, weapons etc karma etc which I am unable to name. I hope that's enough information.
