stycianleo Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Hey I'm new to the forum but I've been playing Fallout 3 for awhile. I just beat the main story line and I've completed all the other DLC except for BS, I'm having an issue with the game at the moment. An issue I'm hoping someone can help me solve. When I'm at the Purifier at the end of "Take It Back!" I enter the code and it goes through the whole sequence of the credits and whatnot, but after the credits I get kicked back to the spot where I was before. As in, if I enter the Purifier, punch in the code, and watch the credits, then the screen jumps back to my character laying on the floor. I have no command options, no movement options, its very frustrating because no matter what I try doing I just can't get Broken Steel to start. I have the lvl cap at 30 so thats working fine, I've encountered a Super Mutant Overlord aswell as Hellfire Troops from the Enclave. I have no idea what the issue is and I'm about ready to throw my keyboard at the wall! Please, somebody, help. -StycianLeo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stycianleo Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Thanks for the assist, I'll change my race first and if that doesn't do the trick I'll begin the long process of turning on and off all my mods. If it turns out to be one of my gun mods, I'm going to cry. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilhippo Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I had the 'Companion Behaviour Overhaul' mod kill Broken Steel at the same point you are having your problem... disabling that temporarily fixed the issue for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giveadont Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Having the mod "Return to Shady Sands" activated is apparently what caused the problem for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanaA Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 You made my day (and night at 0100 am? :-x ) - Switching off my favourit "Alice Mod" et voilá: Broken steel works fine!! I thought about all mods but not about the race, cause alice never made any problems with all the other addons and mods. Thx a lot! AND: It's not enough to chance race, you have to load the savegame again without the mod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csb Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Odd, I've not had the BS problem with Shady Sands installed, but then again, I have the BS override linked above installed as well. A great boon in tracking down problems like this is getting FO3Edit by ElminsterAU and Miax's great guide on using it. Most mod conflicts can be resolved with only a few minute's work in FOMM/FO3Edit. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
