Sorry to bump such an old topic...

 

 

I have the U.S. version of fallout, installed some awesome mods recently like FOOK, EVE, WMK, MMM etc, and became plagued with crashes when trying to save. I have constantly had animation glitches and broken scripts before installing these mods as well. I use FOMM and FOSE. Latest version.

 

SO, what I did was run the G.E.C.K, load fallout3 master file, and ran 'recompile all scripts'. Then I saved it as a new file and made it to load after the main fallout 3 file in FOMM.

 

Next I downloaded FO3Edit, made a copy of the file and renamed it FO3MasterUpdate.exe, then put it back with FO3Edit. I also made one called FO3MasterRestore.exe. Do not put this in your DATA folder, it will mess you up big time. Then I ran FO3MasterUpdate.exe and I read the bottom result and fixed a couple errors it gave me.

 

Ran the game and everything is pretty much working perfectly. Played for hours no problem on the first run. I also had no more animation glitches and scripts seemed to work fine. Hope this helps some of you having the same problems, following these steps does work. As an extra, I was also able to turn my details way up without crashes again finally. :)

Try to uncheck one mod at a time then if you found out what mod makes the crash then, well stop using it. Or just uninstall everything (geck, fomm, and fose/nvse,) and install it again, it may just reset the load order. I do that every time i experience this kind of crash. And then again you can just update your game on a new patch.

So this is an old forum post huh? I'm having the same issue, I have the Steam version of Fallout 3 GotY Edition, I have 59 active plugins and 30 active mods. I'd just like an easy to understand summary on how to fix this problem before I decide to do something stupid like eat my screen, or something.
