WestdykeAutos Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I just installed Broken Steel. it appears as though Fallout 3 and Broken Steel have merged, but don't work correctly. I got the message about Broken Steel being active and the level cap being raised. at the end of the game, I have the option to tell Lyons I'm going to ask Fawkes to activate Project Purity. when I ask Fawkes, he gives his old dialogue about my fate being in there and declines. when I then decide to go in myself, I can ask Fawkes to do it and he gives me his Broken Steel dialogue, and it looks like he's going to do it. but then Sarah Lyons runs in. the ending video plays, and the game crashes/the credits roll and it just goes back to the title screen. the last thing with the crash happens regardless of what I do. either it just ends, or it crashes to the desktop. help, anyone?

Dhegonus Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 got the 1.5 patch installed? that tends to fix most of the broken steel related bugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestdykeAutos Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 I just installed 1.6 because it didn't work before I posted this. this is really annoying, yesterday I got The Pitt, the day before that Operation Anchorage and I already had to reinstall the game for OA to work. before that I had 1.0.0.15 and the fake patch.

WestdykeAutos Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 I just deactivated all mods and Fawkes ran in. I guess it works, I need to test some mods now. anyone got any suggestions on problematic mods with Broken Steel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhegonus Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 not so much broken steel.. but the 1.5 patch made most mods very buggy and made the game mechanics all fubar if you have mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestdykeAutos Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 well, like I said, the game didn't work BEFORE I installed the newest patch. it doesn't look like these problems affect me. Broken Steel definetely seems to work now, with proper mod management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestdykeAutos Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 update: it actually doesn't work. the outside of Jefferson Memorial hasn't changed, there's no clean water, only interiors have changed etc. Paladin Tristan doesn't exist, there's just a quest arrow pointing into the Citadel, but when I go there, nothing's there.

VerbalEarthworm Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I had this with Fawkes, both at Ravens Rock exit and at the Memorial ending...it was Sharing and Caring Companions that caused it, no idea why, but turning that mod off both times solved it and i just turned it back on afterwards.

WestdykeAutos Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 annoying. maybe they'll make an unofficial patch, as of now, the Broken Steel content is in-game, partially but it's unplayable for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
