Yeah I was worried I changed a bit to much in my system that steam is now broken. But it seems unlikely if I can work other games. So I just started to delete every NV related and reinstall it on a different drive. Now it actually took it no problem and I can began with the 4gb download and onto NEW CALIFORNIA mod itself. :laugh: So all in all, IDK WHAT HAPPEN OR WHAT I DID TO FIX IT, BUT I FIXED IT.

Ok i actually fixed it. Turns out my problem was I was storing it on a different drive I guess, I guess it didn't like the fact I was using my bigger :D drive to store my mods and the game. So uninstalled it and reinstalled it back into the :C drive which contains the programX86, I at first couldn't do anything as I was using hardlink deployment which requires me to have everything on the same drive. So I made an empty folder in NV folder located in the programX86 drive for mods and it then let me launch the game. Everywhere I go it says it doesn't matter where it's located, people telling me they can get by find with it in different drives. Idk for some reason it didn't like that for me. THANK YOU VERY MUCH even though it wasn't a direct link to the solution, sometimes just thinking it over and using divide and conquer tactics can get you through anything.

Ok so I actually in a related but different story, tried to launch NV through the NVlauncher in the NV folder and I would get a similar problem. So I copyed and pasted (and made a new fallout NV folder in the :C drive in the programsx86 Fallout NV icon, Fallout NV application, FalloutNVlauncher and steam_api.dll and I can click the launcher and launch the game through that now. Now with the steam.exe, I don't actually have that. I have something very close to it, steam.exe OLD. Now I don't understand if this is the correct .exe that I have to copy into the fallout NV folder, it didn't change anything. Now I didn't actually have any folder in there, since I put all my stuff on the bigger drive. Maybe I should have it on the smaller one where the program x86 is located?

I have steam running 24/7 and I have install and uninstalled New Vegas between both drives several times now, So I don't see how it can't recognize its been installed. The vortex app under games, managed, shows two games to be managed. Fallout New Vegas and Witcher 3, but Witcher 3 has a (+) sign with a check mark saying activated meanwhile Fallout NV only has the (+) sign. I have watched this guys tutorial completely. I guess I can use it for ANY other game. Would buying New Vegas on GOG fix the problem? Maybe it's just steam, I know for a fact the GOG version doesn't need the 4gb download apparently?

I've looked at the wiki and nothing it says helps me. Solution-1a: The "Steam Client" may be in "Offline" mode and minimized, but must remain running while launching the game, even with "nvse_launcher" or "fnv4gb".Note that the "Steam Client" is what displays the "Library", "Store", etc. It is a separate piece of software from "the game" and performs the authentication that your copy of the game is legitimate. Solution-1b: Sometimes all that is needed is to open the "Task Manager" (<Ctrl+Alt+Del> or right-click on the "Task Bar" | "Start Task Manager"), switch to the "Processes" tab, and right-click the "image name" Steam.exe task and select "End Process Tree". Then restart the game again.Solution-1c: When this occurs with the "FalloutNVLauncher.exe" file after installing NVSE, some people have found that COPYing the "Steam.EXE" file (usually located in the "<install path>\Steam\" folder), into the game root folder (i.e. along with the NVSE.EXE file in "<install path>\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas"), resolves the problem.1a is useless. 1b I have deleted anything steam related in my task manager and follow instructions and it doesn't fix it. 1c Might be it but I don't have NVscript extender even installed, so I don't see how its that. Do I need NVSE to even launch the game? Still I continually get the same error code and the rest of the application load windows error(s) don't see to apply to me. I can play other gamers through vortex except New Vegas.

Hey I been trying to play the new california mod, but i been told by the mod developers to download the 4gb patch. Okay i get that part i have it on vortex as a listed mod with one other vortex mod invalidation(no idea what it is) so I deleted it. When i try to run New vegas through vortex i get application error code 5:0000065434. I assume it's the .exe for running fallout new vegas or at least that's what my internet browsing turns up, It's not listed anywhere so i assume its falloutNVlauncher. But still no clear idea why i cannot launch it if it's all there? I disable all mods for NV, still no change with error. On an unrelated note I learn a long time ago how to enable your computer to show stuff it hides from you like its hiding the .exe as falloutNVlauncher, how do I do that again? I have uninstalled both vortex and new vegas and have change NV from different drives too see any changes. All it does is move where the NV folder is located. I have search the internet but all i get are posts about this issue some time back without a clear answer. I know vortex is working for my other games, like witcher 3, although with witcher 3 i just downloaded the mods directly into my mod folder for the game instead of vortex. I'm sure I could do the same with many NV mods but I thought it wouldn't be as hard as this and would have been easier if I wanted many more mods. Any help is appreciated.
