[tiltingmsh]

> Is your Fallout 3 from a Disc or from Steam?

 

If steam Games for Windows Live shouldn't be a problem, if its a disc then get GFWL disabler or use the option in FOMM

 

> Try reloading a prior save (ideally one right when you enter the Jefferson Memmorial in "Take It Back", and activate the purifier yourself or send in Fawkes/Charon to see if it works, if it does ithen its a minor bug affecting that option specifically.

 

> What is merged in your patch?

 

> triple check load order as for some reason some mods inhibit the start sequence

 

> I know yours cuts to the credits, but another had a similar issue, and it turns out he needed this (he had a custom race) but if the vanillia races are altered or not used then this is needed (which may be the case with Wanderers's)
