Ah, I see.. well this is a relief. I am now able to join chat. Thank you very much :)

I've been wishing to eventually get a lifetime subscription. However there are some things that I want to resolve before I do this and despite having made requests to speak with people via PMs and other means I've yet to get a response. How would I go about getting in contact with someone regarding this? *EDIT* Well, the main error was fixed. That being said I'll be signing up for a lifetime sub most likely when my next paycheck hits assuming no extra expenses come up. If not, oh well it'll be worth the extra few bucks and I'll get to help the Nexus out that much more :)

Maybe it is just an indicator that I should stop asking... but may I please speak with someone regarding my chat ban? I've asked a few times and I've not seen a response in this thread. I'd also tried to address this issue privately as indicated at first, however I'd not received a response so I'd turned to the forums. May someone please take the time to speak with me about this? Thank you and sorry for the insistence on the subject but I do enjoy having the ability to use the chat room. :/ And at least for me a large part of the community aspect comes from that... participation in the real time chat where one deals with people in a real time environment.

Hello, I'd made a request to talk with someone a few months back and I'm not sure if in the crazyness of the server move it got lost. But may I please get in contact with a moderator? I was banned from the chat and I was hoping that I could get this situation rectified? I've attempted to contact individuals via pm and nothing has come of this. Thank you for your time!

I get this issue a lot and the thing that it seems to be is that A) the server is kind of wonky right now and B) FOMM likes to crash. This being said, the best you can do is the following. First of all, download your mods manually. After this start up FOMM and from there go to the option to add mods. Then click on package manager, from here just hit the cancel button because you don't want it crashing when it tries to log you in (because the servers are not functioning very well right now :/ ). Once you hit cancel you'll get a new window with a few options. At this point you want to select Add FOMod. After you do so it will pop up a file window so that you can go select it. Once you navigate to and then select the file it will ask you if you want to make a backup. If it is a small file hit yes, because it's good to have it so you don't need to redownload it. After this, it will crash (it always seems to crash :x). After it crashes you will then re-open FOMM and just go back to where you were when you added the mod. (Package manager) Now that you are here you will see that your mod is now listed on the list of files in there. At this point you want to select it and then hit Activate and it will activate your mod. Finally close out your window and check if an ESP is in the list. If it is, make sure it is loaded in my clicking on it so that you get a check box next to the file. From there, load the game and enjoy your new mod!

It was actually kind of funny. When I attempted to download the file in question, I kept getting an error at every attempt (I attempted to work my way down the list) without having to log back in. Finally about 10 minutes later I attempted again (was going to make my third series of attempts) and found that now it had indeed logged me out. After logging in at this time I was then able to download not only the file I wanted to in question, but the supplemental addon. (the eye pack adding 9 more eyes) I hope this helps!

Looks like the downloads just came up. Try and see if it works. :smile: At least they worked for me rather. Was trying to download Rivens eyescapes (an eyepack for FO3) along with it's addon and had no luck. Was trying now and after a few attempts it logged me out, and on logging back in I was able to download the eye packs. :)

Oh wow, thank you so much! The eyepack is DEFINITELY a nice idea and as far as beautification went I did go ahead and added DCMoods, BA_WastelandRestoration, and NMC's Texture Pack. The above being said, I'm really looking at Greenworld as opposed to BA_Wasteland restoration because I would like to see the greener grass, or chances are I could just add that right in. I'll check out breeze's FO3 males, but I will most definitely download and add the eyepacks now. Thanks again for the awesome suggestions. :)

This... wow, I'm sorry but right in the emotions. Yes it is simply a machine with a brain that we fabricated and constructed. But the things shown here are individual thoughts and feelings, maybe just synthesized... expressed... or otherwise, still feelings. :/ That does in my opinion create conflicts. I mean yes, the university put the money into the project and commisioned the robot. But they did so to create what could be a semi sentient, if not completely sentient autonomous creation and really it seems quite wrong to disregard it's described feelings and emotions. (I use it, not to disregard the fact that it could be a sentient creature but due to the fact that no identified gender was determined). That being said, in the future will anything that people sink money and research their property? If so... this can even go wrong at the most rudimentary levels. I mean look at today's pharma industry... people in part use threats of lawsuits to prevent others from providing cheaper or less expensive therapy, or even the red tape put in place to prevent technologies which could have great benefits for human kind simply because it will infringe upon someone's "property". Heck... even look at the attempt to patent genes which thankfully fell through. One corporation attempted to put a patent on a gene sequence related to cancer, thereby making it prohibitively expensive in many cases to even research ways of dealing with that type of cancer. But I digress. The point is, would it be morally correct to create something like this and simply disregard what it appears to think and feel (it's programmed to learn, and everything from there it does on it's own?) simply because people paid money? I don't know it just seems wrong to me somehow :/ Now back onto the MAIN topic at hand. Is there room for a robot rebellion if technology keeps going as it does? Once we get to the point of sentience yes, because at least from what history has shown... any sort of organism that has some degree of intelligence will if mistreated do what they can to eliminate that mistreatment. Monkeys will fight to the death for their hierarchy resources etc. By the same token humans will fight wars politically, physically, or even economically to be treated with a level of respect and humanity. So what's to think that a robot, or a group of them won't do the same if people treat them with less than what we afford humanity as a whole? Needless to say it may not be armed conflict, but it may somehow perhaps be a political or even economic conflict. My two cents on the topic.

May I please get in contact with a moderator concerning my ban from the chat room? Thanks!

Interesting, no problem! I'll just add that to my list of suggestions for fixing crashes in the future, haha.

What are your system specs by chance, also I do need to know your OS. Thanks!

Don't know if its for better or for worse, but I don't really trust the mod manager to do the downloading for me, so I actually just download the mods one by one myself. That being said might you be attempting to download mods which might possibly be considered, "adult"? That being because when I was looking to find more detailed models, I came across the dimonized type 3 model which I could only access and download once I'd enabled the ability to "see" adult mods on my profile. Not sure if this is the problem, but it may help!

This may be the type of thing you are looking for! http://www.vaultmp.com/showwiki.php?title=Download+binaries+source It's a multiplayer mod for FO3, I would assume much in the vein of the GTA multiplayer mod and some other game that is getting a multiplayer mod (forgot which, sorry :/) . That being said it had some sort of update in July so I would say it is active. The only thing though is that it does NOT support FO:NV, the reasoning as to why not can be found on the web page but it basically just says that it's becoming too much work to port over the changes made in one (FO3) to the other (FO:NV).

Not a problem, enjoy the game and I'm happy I was able to help! :smile:

I've only played a few games that had ever been a let down for me. 1) E.T - got that amongst other games when I went on a retro binge when I was younger. That game had no point? 2) Rise of the Robots - It just sucked. 3) Tron Evolution: I really wanted to like the game but I really really felt like I'd wasted my money on this purchase :(

Not a problem, I do hope it helps! I'm kind of new to the modding of FO3 so my suggestions may not be spot on, but I'm happy to try. :) Another thing that occured to me is, if you have a number of mods loaded and it's crashing could it perhaps be due to using too much ram? I know at least with minecraft which was originally set to run at 32 bits, if you don't modify it as you use more mods it will also do that. That being said, I'd recommend pulling up the task manager and keeping an eye on the ram usage. If it's using too much and that's the culprit there is also THIS tool to help you out. http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/6510/? . The tool itself is called Large Address Aware Enable for FO3 and it allows the game to use up to 4 gigs of ram on x64 systems as opposed to the normal 2. I hope this might also help! I actually just used it now since I'm downloading an insanely big texture mod and it indicated there that running out of memory would cause issues so, yep... figured it might help!

Well, honestly at this point I'd have to ask if you know what mod it started crashing on after you added it? Depending on how many mods you had it could be as simple as installing FOMM and un-checking the boxes one by one and restarting the game. As for as debudiag, do you mean DXDIAG? That will give you some information if you are having some sort of driver issue sure! But I'm not sure what else it would point to. That being said, I do believe there are also a few tools out there which may point out any incompatability issues as well, or so I seem to recall seeing reference to these as I was poking about. Either way, I'll keep reading up on stuff and if I come across it I'll let you know!

I was having some issues with Fallout 3 as well, so I'd done some searching and this is one of the methods I came across of fixing crashes related to multiple cores. Basically it tells you of a few lines that you can insert in the fallout.ini found in, "my documents/my games/fallout3" which will tell the computer to use two cores instead of four. http://www.sevenforums.com/gaming/20199-fallout-3-windows-7-w-quad-core.html I hope this helps! *edit* having trouble posting urls... sorry I'll have the info up shortly!

... was to scour this site to add some mods make it more desireable from the getgo. xD Now, the mod's I've used so far are for the most part cosmetic and they are as follows: Got the HD Beautification mod (Project Beauty) Cool Hair 41 (Adds hair) Dimonized Type 3 HairPack v 2_2 As far as other mods go I just downloaded the practice makes perfect mod to use eventually, this being because I've always enjoyed the games where using a skill will raise it as opposed to only having a set amount of points which you distribute every time you level. So I'm wondering if I should just subject myself to the game with the vanilla skill system in place the first time for "the full experience" or whether I should just add this mod into the mix. That being said, does anyone know of any other nifty visual enhancements, or character addons I could use? ("Adult mods" are fine if it looks good... not looking for sexual gratification in this game, but I like customization/"customizability" :) ) Thanks!

I am unsure if this will help, but have you disabled the UAC? I know back in my time of mucking with Win Vista, and 7 that caused more headaches than anything else. As a result I removed this from the getgo.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but I was wondering if I may speak with the individual who banned me from the chat? I realize why I was banned. However I do not know who did it, and I do not know if it is a permanent ban. I honestly hope it is not, but I have no way of determining this and I do not know the name of the individual who banned me. That being said, I did message a moderator. If needed I can provide more information via private chat. Thank you for your time!

I realize this is an old post, but I figure I may as well contribute some information if you or anyone else viewing this thread is still considering this. This being said, I will happily recommend Eve-O for a number of reasons. 1) It's community: No I am NOT speaking about their forums, but rather about the groups that you find in game, the people you will meet, and the friends you will make, and actually maybe a little bit to do with the forums.... still I mostly stay away from those >.> 2) It's sandbox factor: In this game if the mechanics allow it, you can do it. (outside of obvious glitches in the mechanic... no pun intended xD) Furthermore you can do it with no GM consequences. Still though, remember any in game actions you do will affect your security rating possibly, or how people will react to you. Next, you ships for the most part have no hard and fast of what you can and can't do outside of size restrictions; you'd be hard pressed to get a carrier sized thruster module on a frigate for example. Next there are many system in place. Everything from your typical pew pew kill the npc, to missions, bounty hunting, full exploration, randomly generating system (wormholes) and so on. 3) The sheer size and depth of the game, I suppose this could go hand in hand with the sandbox idea, but the number of systems in this game are astonishing and are definitely befitting an MMO. 4) The devs actually care about the game. Now it may not appear that way due to some of the decisions at time, but more often than not the bad decisions have been stupid choices that where somehow pushed by one guy in too much power. Still in general the staff does care enough about the game. As evidenced by the game's fan base which has stayed pretty much steady, or has even continued to grow over the past 10 years. The downsides: 1) TIME... now for me this is not so much of a downside, but I tend to be of the patient sort, But as you progress into the game, you will run into skills that take multiple months, and towards the end maybe even closer to a year to train. It happens so do not be surprised. 2) The game is VERY VERY community oriented. This is NOT a solo game, not by any means unless you somehow find a very unique niche and you somehow get good with it (see individuals such as Cribba). As a result you will most definitely want to look into joining a corporation as you get started. I'd honestly recommend Eve-University for this. That's about it! I hope this helps someone!

Dtrfreeman: To begin with, what method of installation did you use (do you have discs, is it a steam install, windows live purchase, etc?). Next what operating system are you running. Finally, what are your system specifications? Thanks! *EDIT* I decided to do a google search on you error and came across some solutions here: Thanks again!
