Deleted54170User Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 help would be much appreciated :) If you like you can read the Pinned posts at the top of the list, that wandik or Overlord1977 has posted to see if they have covered the area you are aiming to fix. There is a secondary posting area wandik has set up for discussions to help you better too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandik Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 First, i suppose you are using some kind of no-cd patch, that alters original exe file - the patcher checks it's hash and doesn't update non-valid files... Second, this is no reason to double-post the topic. There won't be twice the number of people to help you... Third, try to use punctuation. The post is much much much more readable with it... Fourth, if you still have this issue, try to reinstall and update directly to 1.5 Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoneyLogic Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 but he is rightthe patch is checking the exeif exe = wrong version or has been manipulated, maybe by a cd crack => the patch will simply pass the exe whichleadstoanunpatchedgame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overload1977 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 like psyclops said if you used a no cd crack, the patches will not work becuase the patch file will be looking for a norm fallout.exe and if it finds a cracked ver it will not patch! just reinstalled without the no cd crack then patch the game up.... IF you have to use this no cd crack make a backup of the fallout.exe file ( i dont know why would you need a no cd crack for fallout 3 becuase it only uses the disk just for startup checks and stops running after a 1 min or 2 ) i`m not going to report this but i feel like i`m helping a hacker..............
