New to Nexus, old in gaming

[ChristerC]

Hello all out there in the Wasteland or whatever

 

I'm new to Fallout 3 (only played it through two times as of yet) but I have followed Fallout since it all started and been playing game all my Life (long Before computers).

 

Now, unemploeyd as I am I have tons of time to spend so why not try to make som mods and why not to a game I love. So that´s why I´m here. To learn of the best and maybe, just maybe, make som contribution from my point of view.

 

C ya out there

Welcome, ChristerC!

I have now been with you for six whole days, still a newb, and during that time I´ve tried to learn how to install and create mods.

 

Downloaded a set of "recommended" mods and tools in attempt to prepare an even better run for next try. But most of all, I have been trying to get the game stable on Windows 10 and read multiple sugestions on how to get it working properly. There is tons of things that can go wrong and it does and as it is an old game most articles are to old to be of any use ore are too cluttered with comments to be readable. I've learned though that my greatest problem is caused by the fact that I have two monitors so if I disable one and runs it Windowed I have a much better chance of playing for a longer time.

 

Without mods the game crashes now and then without a clear notion of why. With mods it is the same but some do create more problems. It is still hard to say if it is the mod or the environment that causes this.

 

Anyway, with the mods I´ve got a new game. I was considering buying new hardware for Fallout 4 but it can wait. If that game is half as good as this then why hurry. There is tons of experience still with this game that I want to explore thanks to you guys and girls out there..

 

Yes.

 

It´s because of the great amount of time you all put into this now or earlier that this is still inspite of it´s age a very good game.

 

So with this I just want to thank you all for a very good job.

 

Just sorry I did not find out before.
