Billy1969 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hey, Not sure if this is the right forum or if this has been posted before, but I wanted to share this, it had been driving me crazy and want to spare that feeling to fellow gamers who have the same crashes problems: I had Fallout 3 crashing almost every time I fast traveled to a location or just by moving to another cell and it would always crash to desktop during the loading screen. This didn't happen before but since I added a tons of mods I thought one of them made this crash happen. I removed them one by one to find the culprit, yet after stripping down Fallout 3 to vanilla state the crashes were still happening... I was about to give up on the game when after another start I wanted to load a game and noticed I had over 200 savegame files in my list. Could it be that there were to many? No surely not, it couldn't be that easy? Low and behold, after I deleted the 150 oldest savegame files in c:\my documents\my games\Fallout 3\saves folder I started the game again, loaded my last save, played many several hours sessions since and never had a change zone or fast travel crash again! So my advice is, if you save often like I do, move your oldest saves to a different folder! It will save you many headaches. Billy out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quicksilverva Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 you could try running MasterUpdate via FO3Edit, and you could try using some form of an autosave manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
