Rivet City Midship Crash Bug

Recommended Posts

It seems that if you decide to enslave Flak or harm any of Rivet City's residents, a crash is imminent within from a couple minutes to a couple hours+. For me, whenever I try to Wait or Sleep, it crashes. I had thought that it was my mods, but no. Disabling all my mods still didn't fix it. Once you exit Rivet City, the crash bug will stay with you. Forever. Unless you load an older save from before you even entered. So, a word of warning: If Rivet City's residents are/were hostile to you, do not return to the midship deck. <I think the outside areas are just fine though.> Has anyone found a solution for this bug? I can't really do any of the quests that require me to go inside without using the console to {moveto player} the actors or items. Any help is appreciated.

don't get caught while slaving in the first place.

Does this problem stay even after they stop being hostile?

What I know is that, if a city goes hostile, it will only be so for a period.

 

Yes, I returned back when everyone was friendly again, and lo, when I leave the city and wait/rest, I crash. The bug sticks on you once you enter the Midship section...

Yes, you're probably right. I remember getting caught during my last two playthroughs. I'll probably just skip Flak next time. Is there any other way to fix the bug, other than avoid it? (I've stayed clear from the midship for days now. No Sleep/Wait crashes. :D) I'd really like to be able to go in the marketplace again.

Some mods bring about CTDs when entering Megaton or RC - The Unoficial Follout patch comes to mind.

 

I have had some limited sucess with this teqnique:

 

Go to an empty interior cell. Wait 3+ days. Save, exit the game and reload using your new save. Now go back to RC and see if you still CTD. Remember, its only limited sucess.

Hm..alright, I'll go ahead and see about that. Until then, I can only use their ref ids to do my buisness.

 

Edit 2/22/10: Damn. I forgot that waiting still causes a crash. I go into an interior cell and wait. It crashes. If I try to leave, it crashes too, haha! I'm stuck to reverting to an old save or restarting. :\ Oh well. Thank you anyway. :]
