elmomonster Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 So in the past i tried new vegas and because i liked it, i went ahead and bought it when it went on steam sale. To my pleasant surprise, it found my old save no problem. However when i launch the game from 4gb's exe, it does not detect any of the mods. This may be due to different drive letters but i am not sure. THe 4gb did not work before . When i launch from NMM, i get to the screen where i can launch a new game, continue, etc but then it CTDs. Any ideas? Would it just be easier to copy all of my content to the steam version?
elmomonster Posted December 29, 2013 Author Posted December 29, 2013 When i use FNVedit to check the order, it just displays the steam content and not the additional mods. Just figured i'd add that info
AceGoober Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 From your description it appears Fallout: New Vegas is installed into two separate folders: one ill-obtained and the other Steam. BTW, thank you for actually purchasing the game instead of continuing to use the ill-obtained version. In order for the game to run correctly the ill-obtained version needs to be removed. Prior to removal you'll need to move all mods, fnv4GB.exe and associated files and Fallout: New Vegas Script Extender to the Steam FalloutNV installation folder. After moving the files NMM should now recognize the mods.
elmomonster Posted January 2, 2014 Author Posted January 2, 2014 Thanks ace. I like the series and i owned the xbox version so i was waiting on a steam sale. Now it recognizes the mods but it never seems to go approach the 2 GB ram mark it says just over 1GB and lags terribly. Thoughts?
