Game Crashing on 1st Screen FWE, MMM, WMK, etc.

[7vincent7black7]

Okay, I tried Boss, and haven't tried the 3GB enabler yet, though I think I have at least 4 GB of memory, if not possibly 6-8. Don't know if I got around to doubling up on memory that one time half a year ago. I was informed it wouldn't be as effective as I thought, because the Page File would get larger as well, and so it would be 8 gigs of pure gaming memory, but I'm getting off track.

 

Boss, I don't know if it actually did rearrange my load order, or just kept telling me what's already there with no errors whatsoever, but it did not fix the issue. I will fix the things Rampage has brought up, and try that 3GB enabler now.

 

I got side-tracked in Prototype 2 for the last 3 hours or whatever. :3

 

And I only got the hair mod to create a proper, bald black Bad-A guy named Leroy Jenkings. Naturally, the hair mod I currently have has no bald hair styles, and all the hair styles it DOES have, I utterly hate and think are done poorly with little to no real 3d depth to the hair. It's like a single-layer curtain of painted hair with nothing underneath it but empty spacebetween the person's body and the painted single-layer, so no complaints here. :3

 

If I can't get this resolved this way, I'll wipe the data folder of all mod files besides the vanilla ESMs and ESPs (if any ESPs) and then just install all the mods I need for FWE and whatnot + BA Wasteland Overhaul for that Chernobyl feel. :)

Well, the game is officially broke. -_-

 

I have cleaned it of all mods, and verified integrity cache on steam, and the game still fails to get past the first screen insdie and outside of FOSE. I'm getting bored with not being able to play, and I don't feel it worth it to have to completely uninstall, and then reinstall when all the game files are now vanilla besides FOSE and utilities.

 

I'm not feeling very inspired to sit through Steams pathetic download times when I could do it much faster of a disc or alternative digital download, just to test each mod individually as I install them one by one. It makes me feel like I have a 2 hour wait to install, 4-5 hours of careful mod installations and troubleshooting, and a VERY tentative hope that everything will work correctly.

 

I'll see if I actually want to go through that or call this request for aid off in a few hours.

 

Thanks for your help guys. You've been awesome. :) I'm thinking it's FWE related since all the other FWE crashes that occur on the first slide on launching the game, also break the game and cause you to have to do a clean install of the game.

In order to use DarNified UI F3 with Fallout Wanderers Edition, you must follow the link provided on the FWE page to the Bethesda Softworks Forums and download and install version Alpha 11, the hotfix and make sure the changes were made in the Font settings. If you do not use the version that is linked on the FWE page, you game will CTD on the loading screen. With these changes, the game must be loaded through the FOSE loader. You will also have trouble launching the game through Steam and if the game is installed in the default steam location. Since you had the game running, I assume you have the GFWL client installed.

[7vincent7black7]

Yeah. I've got the GOTY Steam version.

 

Problem. My game is now completely broken. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, and it's either a problem with files outside of the game installation folder, or I will never be able to play fallout 3 again.

 

I've reinstalled after uninstalling, and it still crashes with no mods or anything else.

You can uninstall the game using the "Programs and Features" section of Control Panel. However, you still have to go into your files and check to make sure the uninstall did not leave anything behind. Make sure you check in the "Documents/Games" section and delete anything related to Fallout 3. Next, clean the registry and reboot. Now you should be able to reinstall the game.

I'm thinking, thanks to this link:

It might be that the fonts and whatnot in my FALLOUT.INI are causing it to crash or what have you. I didnt delete that. :3 I've changed them to what they should be, adn I'm going to move it into my "C:\Program Files (x86)\Stevens Files\Game Related\Game Mod Lists\Fallout 3\Backups" folder and have my game create a new one.

 

When I try to install everything, I will need those FONTS lines I think. Maybe when the .ini is deleted, my game will be restored to vanilla completely.

 

[uPDATE] Moved the INI out to Backups of Game Files folder that was next to Game Mod Lists and my game is working. You are probably completely correct, and DarnUI may be my problem with incorrect FONTS lines in the ini.

 

Now, should I use FOIP or Blackened? It seems Blackened doesn't have a patch for Weapons Mod Kits yet, but from what I hear, FOIP is kinda inferior to Blackened or something, so I don't know...I kinda wanna have all my ducks in a row before I have a go at this again. I was mostly good last time, but you know.

Blackened is newer and works with the mods as intended. FOIP is very particular about the version of the mods it is providing a patch for. Personally, I would use Blackened for what I could and whatever is available for WMK.

[7vincent7black7]

Okay thanks. I'm just glad to finally understand what it is that made my game crash.

 

Now we just spread the word that the Darnified UI mod is the problem, and that problem likely links to the FONTS.

 

As for the specific version. I have in my Game Mod Lists folder: dui_f3a10.zip

 

Also, I'm thinking of getting EVE again and patching it with Blackened, but it requires a "PI Mergers" version of Eve to do this...

Uhm... there won't be a WMK patch.

 

Also, I'm thinking of getting EVE again and patching it with Blackened, but it requires a "PI Mergers" version of Eve to do this...

 

Look up the EVE mod and download the EVE Unified Paradox Install version.

[7vincent7black7]

Thank yo uBlackRampage. :smile: I'll do that now.

 

I've also found out I was using DUI Alpha 10, so I'm getting DUI Alpha 11 and the Alpha 11 Hotfix now.

 

I'm gonna get iHud, since it's been recommended, adn look into this "fake fullscreen mod" then start installing FWE, then MMM and Eve with rquisite Blackened Patch, KMP + patch FOIP, Darnified UI A 11 + Hotfix + patch.

 

Everything sounding good with the plan so far?

 

I also think I may have had problems partially wiht the fact that I had installed Fellout and Project Reality at the same time.

 

If I use one of those, it will probably be Project Reality, but I'll look into that first before installing it. its got less to install, but I don't wanna break anything.

 

Update:

 

Im severely pissed off. Everything works except my game outright REFUSES to let my Pipboy buttons text outside of the green menu be anything but blurry as hell. I've checked the game settings in launcher and in-game, Ive checked my AMD CCC settings which are set to let applications wear the pants in the relationship, and I've set the Fallout.INI setting about Pipboy burriness to 0.

 

Referring to "fBlurIntensityPipboy=0" in the ini.

 

I have no clue what to do to make this game do what it's supposed to. :wallbash:

 

Nothing feels worse than having that one glitch with no solution that works, but it seems to be solveable for everyone else on the internet.

 

And of course, I don't know if it's MMM, but nothing will attack me at all. Maybe because I'm level 1 looking for that GNR radio tower?

 

So in summery the two concerns I'm left with atm are:

 

• blurry text on the pipboy interface outside of the green screen
• No monsters or raiders or anything are hostile AT ALL, I waited in a tunnel in DC for 4 days as I was supposed ot wait in an interior area, don't know if that's the cause.

Don't know if I'm supposed to create a new thread by this point either, since most of this is not completely related to the topic, but whatever.

 

Update: Turns out I put on this modded necklace thing I found that was added as a result of a mod, and it made me have like 100 sneak, so nothing attacked me when I was just running around. I should pay more attention from now on.
