Fallout 3 Mod Load Order/Freeze help

[poisonbite01]

Okay, I'm running a windows vista 64, with reasonably decent hardware (never had trouble with Skyrim on Ultra or BL2 on Max resolution). Anyway, I was running Fallout 3 fine, slowly incorporating mods using FOMM, it ran fine. I started a new game once I had everything in that I wanted, started playing it and, again, fine. Then I get to the part around the middle of trying to escape from the vault, and I get freezes.

Music still plays, but the game won't respond. Have to ctrl+alt+delete and task manager it, close it, then start it again. It runs for a bit, but then it crashes again. Not at the same point or anything, it just randomly crashes.

 

Then I get out to the part right after leaving the office but not leaving the vault, and now it runs about two seconds before it freezes. My first question is about mod order.

Does this look good?

The first thing I see is EVE.esm mixed with the official DLCs. It needs to load after them. You also have some .esp mixed with the .esm, unless they are actually a master with the extension .esp.

 

If you ran the game without a problem before you added mods, you probably have an idea what is wrong. Since the mods really don't do anything until you exit the vault, just disable them. Then just before you open the tunnel door, make a save and enable your mods. Also, delete the two you don't have active.

 

You are using the updated unofficial fallout3 patch aren't you?

[blove]

That FOIP patch for MMM and FOOK2 is not for that version of MMM and possibly not even that version of FOOK2.

 

You should really be using FOOK2 1.2 Open Beta instead of FOOK2 1.0 RC. If you do change...EVE is integrated in FOOK2 1.2 Open Beta, drop EWE, drop Abbreviated Effects, use the Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch, Fellout is integrated, More2Megaton will likely conflict with FOOK2 in a bad way, use MMMFOOK2 instead of FOIP, drop Classic Fallout Weapons, and WMMP weapons may not be distributed since FOOK2 changes so many leveled lists. Most importantly, start a new game.

Okay, lot of good stuff here, but how do I uninstall Unofficial Fallout Patch so I can reinstall the updated version? Should I just reinstall Fallout 3 and start over?

[blove]

There should be an uninstall option in your Windows start menu for UFO3P.

[poisonbite01]

okay, I've uninstalled, downloaded the right stuff, etc. I removed all my mods from Fallout 3 and ran it. Worked fine. Had trouble with the fomod of Fook2-1.2 OB (system.outofmemory crash), and just added it in manually. Ran it, no problems. Loaded MMM-6.2...crash immediately after starting a new game. Can someone post a step-by-step guide so I can maybe see where I went wrong?

[Purr4me]

If you have Loot or boss installed, run it an post the list it makes, I want to see the CRC data for each mod especially this one (MMM-6.2.)

 

if the data got corrupted during download, this for sure will make it crash. I ran in to that twice. Some how the downloads complete but are missing internal data. Missing data will cause the game to crash.
