graphic issues with Fallout 3

[draconis2525]

Hey

 

So I have been looking for a solution to this problem, with no luck so far, so hoping someone can help! When I am playing Fallout 3 sometimes the textures / meshes get buggy, with either little white lines flashing across the screen around the seams of the textures, or some of the meshes appearing as green/red blocks with black dots (doesn't always happen, can load the same spot twice and won't always repeat). Also sometimes a semi-checkerboard patter (a square made of little squares) starts to flash on screen, and it keeps happening more and more until eventually the graphic drive (according to ATI control pannel) crashes, causing the game to crash.

 

I have:

-newest graphics driver

-ArchiveInvalidate Invalidate

-both the Pitt and Operation Anchorage and several other mods

-1.4 patch

 

any help would be greatly appreciated!!

 

Also one other unrelated question...why is it everytime I open the mod manager (from the auto start menu) do i have to reselect the mods i want to use? as long as i don't open it, its fine they all load, but the minute i open it up, i have to recheck them all or they won't load.

 

thank you very much!!!!

To the first question, it is strange because it's randomness, seems more a hardware issue than software, you'd do better to rely on another opinion first.

 

To the second, it seems to be a never corrected bug in the launcher... and for that and others reasons you should prefer others utilities to deal with activation/deactivation and load order change, like FOSE, if I correctly recall the name.
