superemage Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Hello I am having some trouble updateing GECK to 1.5 I know this question has been answered on the forums but it was not elaborated enough for me to grasp what to do. I have installed Geck into the correct directory for steam C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 3 However when I try to patch to 1.5 I get an error obviously because this particular file is missing. http://geck.bethsoft.com/index.php/Image:GECKReadme.txt Ok I have the patch itself and I have the text file where would I put these two so that I can update successfully, steam is like pulling teeth sometimes so forgive me Windows 7 32bitFO3 GOTYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falloutperson416 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Can you give me some more information on what exactly is happening to you here? I don't really understand what exactly is going wrong with the installation, and when it is failing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superemage Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 Ok, 1. I installed Geck Garden of Eden Creation Kit 1.1 2. I tried to install the patch 1.5 3. The patch did not work 4. It said the "old file" did not exist. 5. I went to see if anyone else had that problem. 6. I found out they did and the file missing was that text file I linked. 7. I am unsure of what to do with the patch and file now that I have them. like where to put them and where to run the patch if it needs a special location or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironman126 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 If you just got GECK, you don't need to update it. The patch comes with the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superemage Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 I just figured it out, they gave the wrong steam installation directory so once I switched it the patch worked and GECK started fine. The first comment got me to thinking so I guess it wasn't totally useless ty lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
