Issues with my GECK created Mod

[TheHitokiri]

I am using the GECK for the first time, going through the website's "My First Vault" tutorial.

 

Periodically I would save and check it in-game. No issues. At some point after putting down ALOT of clutter (though still not finished), I began to tamper with an Enc NPC (tried to make a bunch of Raiders that where slightly smaller with child voices and named "Insane Child"). Checking that far in-game didnt give me what I wanted. I didnt overwrite "LvlRaiderMelee", but created a new "LvlInsaneChild" to edit, but since then, if that particular MOD is active I cant even get to the main menu, FO3 simply reverts to my desktop with no error message.

 

Also, sometimes when I load my Mod in GECK, I find several objects(seemingly totally random though grouped together each time) that have multiplied, causing overlapping and strange visuals...

 

ANY ideas? I put alot of time into this Mod, before and after.

The GECK saves your last 10 versions of your mod in the \Data\backup folder. I would restore one of these and start over from there, if you can find one that doesn't crash the game. Short of that, if you can open your mod with the GECK, you may want to delete the assest you made that may be causeing the game to crash.

 

As for the items that are appearing overlapped. That can occur when an object has an X, Y or Z coordinate that is out-of-bounds. Usually, you will get an error message when loading the mod that states this, if this is the case.
