Can't activate Project Purity (Final Mission)

[TJKing]

OK guys, here's my problem.

Yesterday I installed the Broken Steel/Point Lookout Addon Pack (I've also got The Pitt und Anchorage), now I've been playing a little bit in Point Lookout, finished the Desmond-quest and the Chinese-spy-missions and advanced to lvl. 24, but I didn't finish EVERY Point Lookout-quest.

Now, I wanted to see a little of Broken Steel, so I continued to the MQ, went to Vault 87 (which at some places doesn't have a floor ?!, got this bug in some vaults), helped Fawkes...yadda yadda yadda, entered the Rotarium at Jefferson Memorial.

Now the first time I tried, I let Colonel Autumn walk away, and went up the stairs, where the cutscene, where Doc Whatshername tells me, that the Project Purity needs to be acitivated, and, of course, I volonter, go in, Airlock is sealed, I went to the console and typed 216, nothing happens (I've tried I faster, slower, nothing happened).

So I reloaded a savegame I made shortly before entering the airlock, only this time I told Fawkes to do it. He agrees, but doesn't move, so I pushed him inside the airlock, closed it, cutscene was triggered, but Fawkes just stayed in the airlock. Again, nothing happens.

I reloaded the autosave upon entering the Memorial (not the Chamber).

This time, no matter if I let Autumn live or kill him, the Lyons Pride-girl (forgot her name), doesn't speak to me about it (she did in the first try, said she was surprised I let him live). This time the Cutscene ,where I get the quest-update to activate Project Purity from Dr. Ling, isn't triggered.

After this I tried it several times, everytime the cutscenes weren't triggered.

I also de/reactivied the Compian Behaviour Overhaul, didn't change a thing. I've got a LOT of other mods, they don't change anything about the MQ, these are mainly new weapons, armors or hideouts.

I've also tried to finish the MQ without Broken Steel activated (strangely my lvl 24 savegame works without Broken Steel), same results as above.

Can anyone help? PLEASE!!

- These are now available and will most-likely be in the form of an executable program aka EXE files you double-click to install.

 

frist off how did you install the pitt or broken steel ect with the exe ? if yes this dose not work its gets messed up

 

you will have to find the file and put there in your data folder like mods like this

 

Note this is not officially supported by Bethesda, it is provided here only as a work around for folks who do not want to use GFWL. And, make sure you move the files, not copy them.

 

Move the files into the Data folder instead of the Live location it gets placed in. You need to move the ESM (ESP?) and both the BSA files.

 

Make sure you have "Show Hidden Files" checked off, or you won't be able to see the folder.

 

For XP:

 

You can make this change in any Windows Explorer window by going to Tools Menu, Folder Options, View Tab and about 4 options down, under Hidden Files, choose Show Hidden Files. Note, this change will allow you to see System Files and other things that are best not messed with, so you may want to undo this change after moving the file.

 

For Vista:

 

1) Open Windows Explorer (not the browser, the one showing your hard drive etc)

2) Top left corner, you'll see an "Organize" button. Clicky

3) Go to the Folders and Search Options choice, which will bring up a new window

4) Select the View tab

5) About eighth item on the list is Show Hidden Files and Folders. Select Show Hidden Files

6) Apply, OK

7) Do whatever needs to be done Repeat, but select Hide Hidden Folders thumbsup.gif

 

 

For XP:

 

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Xlive\DLC

 

For Vista:

 

C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\XLive\DLC

 

NOTE; If you get CTD's when firing up the Simulator, you need to rename the DLC folder, or remove it. This stops the attempt to contact GFWL about Achievments

 

Move them to

 

C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout 3\Data

 

If you are using a shortcut to the Fallout executable to launch the game, you will have to use the Fallout Launcher to select the Mod before you load the game. Once it is selected you can then use the executable shortcut to play the game

 

hope this helps if you need more info get back to me by pm or post in here

 

Broken Steel help

its also maybe one of your mods try truning them off one by one and try to work out whats doing it

[TJKing]

fixed it myself, must have been a mod, probably Marts Mutant Mod. I don't see how this mod influences the MQ, but anyway, now BC is working..not fine, a little buggy, but it's working

[spooky760]

I've got the same problem. When I getiside to activate Project Purity, I enter the code 2-1-6 but when I hit enter it does not work. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

just try deactivating mods till it works

I've had this problem (can't open the door) many times (probably due to some mod conflict). Here's what works to get you thru this if you are on a PC:

This may seem like a lot of steps but it goes very quickly and does get you past the glitch.

 

1. You are instructed to open the airlock.

2. Go into God mode by activating the console (press the tilde key just to the left of the number 1 key). This will take you into the console.

3. Enter TGM (toggle God Mode) the "Enter" and tap the tilde key again to go back to the game.

4. Go over to the entrance and go back into the console (tilde key).

5. Enter TCL and press enter. Press the tilde key again to go back to the game. This will allow you to pass thru the door. This toggles clipping, which enables the player to move in any direction, including through solid objects.

6. Go through the door and press the tilde key again and enter TCL and press enter then the tilde key again. This will take you out of TCL mode and back into normal mode.

7. Enter 2-1-6 and Enter into the console.

You will appear to die but will wake up 2 weeks later in the Citadel.
