Jam1397 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Firstly I am new to the modding scene as this is my first modded experience but i do know my way around a computer, but could still use the advice :3 I've followed a mod installer series by gopher on youtube and installed all mods and patches ect. and the game runs fine on vanilla & even better on the modded version with all the updates, luckily I have a very good pc and can run GTA V on the max settings so i should have no problem running this and in fact i don't, its very smooth and i have no frame rate or stutter problems., but on the modded game when ever i shoot an npc the game instantly freezes with no warning or delay, just freezes in place but the game carries on in the background and i can hear voices and gun shots, if i shot around the npc there is no problem but when I hit one it freezes. I can explore the entire wasteland with no trouble and i can get hit by enemies but even fi i use a melee weapon the game freezes on impact. I've tried adding in patches and using bUseThreadedAI=1 & iNumHWThread=2 but whenever i load up the game they just reset to their original values each time :/ The mods I have installed are: Fallout3.esmAnchorage.esmThePitt.esmStreetLights.esmBrokenSteel.esmPointLookout.esmZeta.esmCRAFT.esmCALIBR.esmaHUD.esmiHUD.esmImaginatorFO3.espCINEMATECH.esmProject Beauty.esmFO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esmEVE.esmMart's Mutant Mod.esmUnofficial Fallout 3DarNifiedUIF3.espProject Beauty- Broken Steel.espProject Beauty- Point Lookout.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Anchorage.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC The Pitt.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Broken Steel.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Point Lookout.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - DLC Mothership Zeta.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Followers Enhanced (BrokenSteel).espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Alternate Travel.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Optional Restore Tracers(automatic only).espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Optional Restore Tracers.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Project Beauty.espFO3 Wanderers Edition - Project Beauty (Followers Enhanced).espBlackened FWE +MMM + EVE + project beauty.espMart's Mutant Mod.espMart's Mutant Mod - DLC Anchorage.espMart's Mutant Mod - DLC The Pitt.espMart's Mutant Mod - DLC Broken Steel.espMart's Mutant Mod - DLC Point Lookout.espMart's Mutant Mod - DLC Zeta.espMart's Mutant Mod - Project Beauty.espMart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release + DLCs.espMart's Mutant Mod - Project Beauty + FWE.espMart's Mutant Mod - Master Menu Module.espBetterGamePerformance.espDYNAVISION - Dynamic Lens Effect.espDirectors Chair - Fallout 3.espFO3 Error Fixes.espmy merged patch.esp Can some one please help me thanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) FWE - Alternate Travel should load after your last .esm. Use only one Optional Restore Tracers or none. If your game is installed in Program Files, uninstall it, restart your computer and install it in a location outside of Program Files. Do not use the Fallout 3 launcher to start the game. It will remake the .ini files to match what is shown in the Fallout 3_default.ini. Use only one game performance mod. Either Unofficial Patch, BetterGamePerformance or FO3 Error Fixes. Don't ask me, I don't use any of them. Blackened patch is in the wrong place (patches must load after the last mod they patch) and you are using the wrong version of Mart's Mutant Mod. Blackened will only work with the Paradox Ignition version of MMM. If that is the one you are using, disable and delete all the MMM .esp. Do not uninstall them, delete them. You still need the files in the game Uninstall the FWE-Project Beauty.esp. Remake your merged patch. There are also game specific forums. Look for "Nexus site forums". Left click on it and you will be taken to a page with all the supported games listed. Please do not start multiple posts with the same topic title.

Jam1397 Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 I've done everything you told me too and know it just seem like the game is crashing but not too often like every couple of minutes and i can shoot people,ive made a folder in my computer where the game is and the fallout_default.ini stays the same when i load and it keep the bUse Threaded=1 & iNumHWThread=2 but in my documnets the fallout.ini keeps on reverting to the default :/ I managed to get through the whole vault, through megaton, defuse the bomb and then go to the super duper mart and then it started to crash D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Follow this link for instructions on how to set up the game when you have a new operating system: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1465357-installing-fallout-3-with-windows-78-and-xp/ There is a way to have the steam folder outside of program files. However, I do not have steam and never will, so I can't help you there. I have read that there are instructions to move the steam folder available on steam.

iamStilbon Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Not sure if any of this will help, but you can take a look at the Ultimate Fallout 3 Steam Guide. I'm downloading F3 from Steam and will be trying to get it to run on my win 8.1 system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kekkev Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Did you ever fix the issue? I followed Gopher's mod guide too, and I have tinkered with it so much, but never have found a solution. It ONLY crashes when shooting at enemies. (I actually never tried shooting at other npc's but I bet it would crash there too. It's like every 2-5 enemies I shoot before crash) Thread necromancy and wrong forum section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
