Purr4me Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Ran steam first and then try to load the game..Same error listen carefully: download the stem item from here ,replace whats in your new folder only and run it directly.This will not call up steam, that is from the games launcher.this workshttp://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/4635/?

Purr4me Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) I am gonna try real hard to explain something here, there is an update program for Fallout3 intended for the retail versions and steam versions of long ago on "Bethesda" web site. that update will only work with the above linked backwards compatibility module so provided.

lv1234 Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 ...........Okay should I um get the update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purr4me Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) oh yes, and I'll even show you what you should end up with.the steam "fake" thingy changes the rate of speed of the graphics in this game, but when you patch it ! oh boy look out. Software works a certain way, magic does it's thing when you know how it all works. So , being a witch has an advantage, though a warlock found it first...JusinOther.. has magic we have no idea of. neat and tidy.
