Latest Patch - all Problems fixed?

[phoneyLogic]

Patch 1.6.0.3 ...

... is available via GfWL.

O.K., downloaded and tested it with two Plugins I made after the Bugs of 1.5 become known here

 

Bug #1: Saving Crash

I placed a CRBrahmin at Vault101Exterior

Fast travelled as far as possible and saved

--> no crash, fixed

 

Bug #2: Vanishing\Resetting Objects

Placed non-persistent Statics in the the Vault101 Exterior-Cell

fast travelled to Girdershade, to Megaton, to Tenpenny Tower

saved

--> no vanishing, fixed

 

Bug #3: Skin color on new NPC's defaults to "white" no matter what

not fixed

 

 

Seems to me that the serious Bugs of 1.5 are solved.

Someone who can verify this, please?

I'd really love to know this as well... I'm not touching the DLC until I know everything is operational again. Sorry Bethesda.... I like my mods. Would to love to play BS but it breaks my game.

So, there's a chance I might eventually trust an official patch other than 1.00.15? I hope so.

 

tho I think I'll take a wait & see approach

I dont use patch 1.5 cos it made my game crash all the time.

Now i have some CTD but nothing really hard.

Today GFWL ask me to update the patch, i refuse.

Now every minute game crash like hell.

GFWL try to make a joke?

[phoneyLogic]

OK, game runs charming with 1.6.

I had no crashes and no vanishing Object, but

 

Bug #3: Skin color on new NPC's defaults to "white" no matter what

 

--> is not fixed! Modded African American NPC still "reset" to the white default skin of the game :\

I'm sorry for the stupid question, but how exactly do you download the new patch? I just re-installed Fallout 3 tonight, logged on, and it had me download patch 1.5. I then restarted Fallout 3, and I'm updated to the dreaded 1.5 patch, but don't see any options for downloading the 1.6 patch.

For now it's only on G4WL & apparently it's not available to all even there. Soon it should available as a regular download.

 

BTW Welcome to the Nexus aceshigh23

Edit

 

atm the Patch is available only via GfWL, as English, Italian and Austrian Version. Found here: New Patch? @ Bethsoft.com

 

but there will be a regular official download soon

We'll have the 1.6 update available on our site this morning. For now, you should be able to get it through GFWL. Initially, I had to uninstall my game to get it to work. You might want to try that if you haven't gotten it.

New Features

 

New achievements for Point Lookout

The changelog doesn't say a word about bugs fixes.

I just noticed that it's on Bethesda's website. Like many others, I'm not touching it until I read more positive responses. I'm more than a little gun-shy after the two weeks of crap I went through trying to get the expansion material to work.

 

To all the people involved in making GFWL Disabler, MWAH, MWAH, MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMWAH!!

 

YOU ROCK!
