marcushugh Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 When i play broken steel, there are heaps of errors 1. When i wake up, it goes straight into dialogue with elder lions2. As i walk around, there are all of these red things which i think are exclamation marks3. When i try to go out to the wasteland, it just gets out of the game and says there is an error Please help because i am really frustrated and want to play it.

Gishank Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Firstly - What patch are you using?Secondly - Did you purchase a legitimate version of Broken Steel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcushugh Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share Posted August 14, 2009 yes it is a legitimate version of Broken Steel, im using the 1.7 UK patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gishank Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It does to some extent, considering a pirated copy of the Broken Steel DLC could easily be tampered with so it doesn't function and infected with viruses. Onto the main matter of the thread; Are you using any mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcushugh Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 no mods, do you think i should use FOMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddah Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Lets start from the beginning, what operating system are you using? Next where do you have BOS installed if it is still in g4wl, you may need to move it. But install the latest fomm, it will help you greatly. It has some pointers if you are using vista, and will tell you if you need to move files from g4wl to the data folder, Hope this helps.

Wandik Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 red exclamations means missing resources - textures etc. for DLC's, resources are packed in .bsa files, although game should do it automatically, i would suggest to use archiveInvalidation in FOMM, and then check with BSA manager, if all your bsa files are loaded correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
