geoflo Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Has anyone thought of making a patch or updating to run FO3 on to Win7? I love the game but since updating my comp and OS I am at a loss. Would love it if someone was to update FO3 to operate on win7 as well as the rest. Anyone..................????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonger Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 game works fine on Win7 no patch required all that is required is a little understanding of Win7 and to refuse to install anything to the default "program files" location or if the program was migrated in an operating system upgrade uninstall then re-install it outside of that accursed directory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoMeteora Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I have a problem. so, I've turned UAC off (using win7), install the game not in program files (D:\Fallout 3), and activate the 'archive invalidation' then some weird things happened: main menu http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/255189_1913870740607_1657095232_1926958_5895597_n.jpg Pip Boy menu http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/247308_1913871100616_1657095232_1926959_7979289_n.jpg container menu http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/254272_1913871340622_1657095232_1926960_8261500_n.jpg the first two problem is alright for me. just some messed up menu. but the third is very annoying. I can't click to take or store items. So It's impossible for me to reverse pickpocket, store items, take items, buy, sell, exploding anyone pants, anything related to click to take/store items. and every time I open the buy/sell menu, the game crashes. can anyone help? thanks.

spiritshadowx Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Somebody left the barn door open. better to solve this the other way so the slimes don't simply walk in through the open doorI've left the barn door open, but i've build a giant [fire]wall inside, with a nice can of antivirus spray beside it. @neoMetora (i tried multiquoting you, decided not to work): Did anything go wrong during the installation?
