Patonki1000 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) Hi, i tried to look through topics for similar case, found one but it was left unsolved. I installed a bunch of mods through NMM. I do not have the mods here with me, as I uninstalled and deleted them afterwards. The point is, however, that when starting the Fallout with mods is shows the very first loading screen for about 1-2 seconds and CTD. So I thought that the mods are not OK. Disabled them all from NMM. Still the same.Now removed them completely from NMM and uninstalled the whole game. Reinstalled fresh, and still the same CTD.I also deleted the "My Games" -folder for Fallout 3, so the configuration files there cannot be the reason. This leads me to think that there still remains some invalid registry entry.. or something that the uninstall/reinstall combo did not reach. I have a feeling the game is trying to reach some file or entry that the mods corrupted, but it cannot be undone? If you have any information on what and where is interfering, so I could remove them.. to even get to the point where a Vanilla game will work as it did before mods.

M48A5 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 It is quite possible that your equipment cannot run the game. Please post your equipment specifications and the installed path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patonki1000 Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) M48A5: this is not the case. I played the game quite a bit without a hitch, until I decided to add up some mods. The following steps did get me to a point where the game agrees to start up (vanilla) - Uninstalled Fallout 3- Uninstalled Steam- Ran registry cleaner for misplaced .dll (etc) references, and it found quite many --> removed them all. Used CC Cleaner.- Booted up system (Windows 8 )- Re-ran registry clean, and found some more broken references- Opened up regedit manually, and checked there is NOTHING left, and when there was nothing I decided to give a go- Reinstalled Steam to different directory and reinstalled Fallout 3. --> Works now. And I need a drink.. Edited December 28, 2014 by Patonki1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
