Guess ill get right into it.....Got the Goty edition of Fallout 3 (ofcourse) and been playing it for a few days now already finished the piss...it was awsome..so i figure i would check out zeta next...so far so good then i notice after i leave the ship when im done that everything is Black and whit...i was just wondering if this is a common glitch or what the hell is going on and if any one has any ideas how to fix it cause i really dont want to start over.

It sounds like the Tranquility Lane filter has kicked in... that's really odd. I've never heard of that.

 

Just a couple quick questions... If you have any more problems, you should always mention these bits of info since we'll just ask for them anyway.

 

1) Are you running any mods apart from the DLC? (In this case, are you specifically running anything that screws with the graphic effects like screen blur... or maybe quest mods?)

 

2) How well patched is your game?

 

3) Are you running the unofficial patch?

 

 

If your answer to number one is "Yes", try deactivating them. Your game might asplode... welcome to running mods on FO3. You spend a fair amount of time poking the game into life.

 

If your answer to number two is "Not very" or "I'm not too sure", grab the latest patch. I think it's on FO3nexus somewhere

 

If number three is answered "Yes", deactivate it. I've found that as good as the unofficial patches are, occasionally they patch up a bug in a strange way.

 

 

If none of those work, try using the COC command in the console. Open the console (Key to the left of [1]) and type in "coc AgathasHouseInterior " without the quotation marks to teleport. This might skip the bug. Though this might also skip the quest ending, too.

 

An alternative could be to download a mod to disable the black-and-white filter while in Tranquility lane; this might switch it off altogether.

 

Good luck.
