SatansApostle89 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Hi guys, my game keeps crashing whenever I exit to the wasteland (I can only assume! Tried it with Rivet City and teleported to anacostia and attempted again) I am running the most recent Unofficial Patch for F3 and all of it's DLCs Any ideas?

prensa Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 SatansApostle89 - Hello! "I am running the most recent Unofficial Patch for F3 and all of it's DLCs" When you say you're using the latest version of the UF3P do you mean the original version here: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/3808/? Crashes on saves around Rivet City & Project Purity can be caused by a fault in the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch - Broken Steel.esp, a fix for that can be found here:http://forums.nexusm...howtopic=401813 If instead you mean you're using the "Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch", that's already got the Broken Steel Plugin fix applied: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/19122/? Hope this helps! Prensa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatansApostle89 Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Oh my god I'm such a dope! Yeah I had the original patch instead of the updated one! Thanks for your help man :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monolith1985 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm having this problem too, I started with the updated patch, but after reading about broken steel, switched to the old 1 so I could disable that esp, which led to being able to walk a few seconds before crash. Have tried pc, and a few other fixes too, but still keeps crashing, any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prensa Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 SatansApostle89 - Hello! Happy to have helped! :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ monolith1985- Hello! "I started with the updated patch, but after reading about broken steel, switched to the old 1 so I could disable that esp" The Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch should already have the Broken Steel Plugin fix built in so no need to go back to the original for that reason. Including that fix was one of the first things they did when updating I believe. The original UF3P Broken Steel can be fixed with FO3Edit & that link I mention above if you do wish to use the original. "which led to being able to walk a few seconds before crash." The UF3P Broken Steel Plugin crash is very specific, only affecting saves around Rivet City & Project Purity. That includes saves when fast travelling from there or entering & exiting doors. It does not cause crashing unless saving or in any other location. If you're crashing while just walking or in other locations then it sounds like you've another problem. If your game is freezing rather than crashing it could be the Fallout 3 multi core bug.Fallout 3 has trouble with multi core computers, mainly with ones that have more than two cores & use hyperthreading.There is a fix, you need to edit your Fallout 3 .ini file.The one you want to change is:For XP:My Documents\My Games\Fallout3\For Vista & Win7:Documents\My Games\Fallout3The file you want will be called:FALLOUT.iniOpen the .ini with Notepad & change this line:bUseThreadedAI=0to:bUseThreadedAI=1& insert this line under it:iNumHWThreads=2Save & close your ini.Hope this helps!Prensa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monolith1985 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Thanks for the advice. I've already got them added to the ini, I have a dual core without hyperthreading.But if I started with the updated patch then I shouldn't of had the problem?Only other thing I can think is I added jessi and kelsey companions, who spawn there. And also have/had a bug where the market was always closed, and downloaded a mod to patch that, but tried disabling all and travelling there with a new character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
