CTD upon area transition, need help

[WastelandAssassin]

well, like i suggested, you could use FO3Edit to find the conflict

it is a much better conflict detector than the one of the mod manager, and it has some great options

so give it a try, and see if it helps

Unfortunately, I can't make any sense of the conflict detector in that program, even with the manual.

[Rajorke]

Now, it's happening when I enter the Mill in The Pitt. Really annoying. I can't find what conflict is causing this problem in FO3Edit.

[Rajorke]

So, I removed all of the mods and this problem still occurs.

[WastelandAssassin]

how about you try a master update??

basically, create a copy of the FO3Edit file, and change it's name to FO3MasterUpdate

then run this file, and see if it all works well

if there is no problem, you will see an All Done message, or something of that sort

 

see if this fixes your game

and if it tells you there is a conflict, try to solve it

 

note that you should do a master update every time you change your load order

I fixed the problem. Apparently it was a texture issue, because the game needed more RAM, but the whole 2gig limit was working against me.

 

Thanks for the help, though.

[WastelandAssassin]

i am glad you fixed it

enjoy the game :)

Hey Rajorke, how did you end up actually fixing this issue? Just curious since I am having a CTD on fast travel everytime. Thought I may check out whatever you fixed.

 

Thanks

Jeff

jmcb1b, I used this: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6510

 

I've had a few crashes since I installed this, but not nearly as many, and none on traveling. The few I've had since then are likely other mod issues.

For the fast travel CTD I went ahead and disabled the autosave which solved the problem for me. I am, however, experiencing CTDs whenever I fight the enclave. Not sure if it's some kind of AI scripting bug or what. I have actually been saving my game, exiting, and then restarting the game so that my saves are actually successful. This is very frustrating. I have had minimal CTDs in operation: anchorage and none in mothership zeta. Scratching my head here. I will try the mod that you recommended as I am running XP 32 bit and I know that some of my ram isn't being used. Makes me want to get 64 bit. Running a nVidia GTX 260 currently as well. 4 gigs ram on the mobo but know it's not all being used.
