Lucidx Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Whenever I try to edit dialoge in the Geck, it crashes no matter what, as soon as I click new, a 'EMPTY' placeholder comes up on the list but then the geck just crashes. Im using vista :( does anyone know how to fix this, I really want to add some extra dialoge.
minutegold Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 My condolences, I have the same problem and it seems like there is no easy solution. It might have something to do with incompatibilities between the geck and some audio codecs. So, if you are Windows savvy you could invest some time into deinstalling, reinstalling and configuring the game, the geck, media players, codecs, etc. . But I doubt it'll help. The only "workaround" I could come up with was to install geck and fallout inside an XP VM. It's a bit cumbersome, the game won't run and I can't use the render window, but I can edit dialogue and add quest topics.
Lucidx Posted May 31, 2009 Author Posted May 31, 2009 So theres no program that emulates xp that you can load it in or anything? like wine for mac to load .exe files and stuff.
jaysus Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 if you create a new topic and are still in the prompt line and you click in the topic list again while the geck runs its spell checker the geck crashes... as easy as that... click in the response field before you click the topic list to avoid it
minutegold Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 It's not that simple. You have to create a response before you can enter a prompt, and that's when the crash happens.
BadPenney Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I run Vista and have no problems creating new dialogue. An XP emulator may not be the solution to your problem. I wonder if reinstalling the GECK would help.
IceDragon987 Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 I had the SAME exact problem. I had Vistcrap (Vista...) for a while. When i tired to edit dialogue no matter what way people told me to do it, it would crash. I just took a copy of XP from a friend and installed it. I like XP more anyawy After that the GECK worked perfectly. I uninstalled/reinstalled Fallou 3 five timesGeck five timesI messed with codecs, I've deleted every program i could except the core ones. NOTHING helped. VISTA just sucks...
army13 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Vista not sucks, i think its far better than xp... i used xp for 4 years, then i get vista... faster, prettyer, safer... the only thing is the compatibility, vista sucks in compatib. i think bethesda needs to make a patch for geck, cuz its not compatible with vista, i get too many crashes in geck under vista, with the dialogue, then random crashes... nightmare... so i make mods on my bros comp(he uses xp :starwars: )and works fine :P
SylvanTiw Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 I had this problem, I worked around it by adding topics from other quests and then copying and moving the dialogue to the new topic then altering it to be what I need. Hope this works for you.
