pkleiss Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 So, are you having problems getting the fallout 1.7 patch to install then? From the main menu, if you go to Settings --> Display, you version will be shown in the lower left of the screen. What version do you see? What problems are you having with insatlling the v1.7 patch? Are you getting any error messages? Is it crashing? Describe what is happening. FOSE does not support:Retail DVD and Steam build 1.0.0.12 (the original pre-patch version of Fallout) - if you have this version, update to 1.7.0.3Russian DVD version of Fallout 3 (it uses Starforce encryption on Fallout3.exe)Direct2Drive version of Fallout 3 (it encrypts the Fallout3.exe) - download the game from Steam if you would like to use a digital download servicePolish DVD version of Fallout 3 (it uses SafeDisc copy protection on Fallout3.exe) If you have one of these, then you are SOL.

pkleiss Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Are you downloading from here? That is the officail site. Save the file to your HDD then run the file. The way you worded your post it sounded like you were expecting ther update to take place after the download. That's not how it works - at least with a DVD version of the game. You need to run the downloaded program to upadte the game. You may also have to get the latest GFWL client here, if you get an ordinal 5360 error when trying to update your game with the patch.

Use the "Uninstall Mod" button in the mod options menu.2.) Reequip your armor, save, and quit.3.) Deactivate the ESP.4). Delete the files/folders associated with the mod. meshes/remove the folder scorptech I just tried that uninstall method & it worked without me needing to reinstall the game that's why reading the readmes are important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
