Save crash near Big Town

[rebel28]

Hey there, I recently re-installed Fallout 3. And I've been enjoying re-playing the story. I was on my way to Landmine (I think that's what it's called, the place with all the mines) and I passed by Big Town on the way. The quicksave worked fine when I was in Springvale, just before getting to Big Town. But it won't work now, and I really don't feel like reverting to my last autosave.

 

Here's my load order:

Can anyone help me out?

[anokii]

Yep - you got problems;

 

- Your load order is out of whack - golden rule = ESM's should always be loaded before ESP's, and you need to sort it out, you can try: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10193 (does a decent job but the install is just a tad tricky for newcomers). Basically your load order is all over the shop and your going to run into huge problems if you don't fix it up.

 

- Your running an older version of FOOK2 (v1.0), this release was well known to be buggy and cause CTD's. Suggest if your going to keep it to go to: http://www.yourfook.com/downloads/ and: http://www.fookunity.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4212 (read the install very carefully and follow the steps as is - failure to do so will cause you more grief), and then go to: http://www.fookunity.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4307 and get the latest patches.

 

- Check compatibility of your mods - some of the ones you have listed are already in FOOK2 (EVE as an example) so your doubling up which will cause problems.

 

- I don't seen any FOIP patches for the large mods either like MMM and FOOK2

 

- Personally I would drop the Unofficial Patch - Broken Steel this is has been known to cause some issues.

 

- Personally I would consider using a merge patch with that large of a load order.

 

 

That should get you started.

(Someone said adding a merged patch can cause problems as well as fix them, so I'm gonna see if running the game without the merged patch will make it worse or better)

[rebel28]

Hey, using that new load order, except without the "Unofficial Patch - Broken Steel" seemed to fix it for now. I'll report if it stops working. Till then, thanks.
