Bazerk83 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Ok let me start by telling you what I HAVE done. after cleaning up my pc with updating latest drivers for graphics card and motherboard (after removing old drivers with driver sweeper and cleaning registry) ran through nvidia tweak guide and slightly tweaked graphics but NOT overclocked Fallout 3 has a fresh clean install on my D: drive, away from windows. rebooted, ran smart defrag 2 and rebooted again DLCs then installed via safe mode, run as admin Official update 1.7 UK installed Games for windows live enabler installed and run. FOMM installed to C: drive default location FO3edit installed and MasterUpdate.exe created Boss installed FOSE + FOSE extended installed ArchiveInavildatedInvalidation installed fallout stutter remover installed fo3 ram boost enabled via cff explorer on fallout3.exe and app can handle >2gb address space box checked ffdshow installed and fallout3.exe added to required audio, video and dxva video exceptions lists fallout3 added to Alchemy via registry path fallout 3 gb enabler installed fallout.ini and falloutprefs.ini tweaked including carefully (no values set too high and very few change at all) + using tweakguides added busethreadedai=1 and inumhwthreads=2 added to general. UFO3P installed UFO3P broken steel fix installed CASM v1.2 installed fook 1.2 installed plus hotfixes etc. enhanced blood textures installed + update and ini's tweaked according to readme instructions masterfix files installed NMCS texture pack installed (highest quality)NMCS bumpmaps installed. (higest quality)ran BOSS fo3edit ran and all esms/esps checked except masterfix files which told to leave unchecked no problems found. merge patch created and saved. then merge patch checked in fomm. master fix files set as last in load order, even after merge patch, and checked. ran fose. OK! I think that covers everything! now to the problem. No matter WHAT I DO, I've installed and re-installed this friggin game so many times i'm getting tired of doing it. I've tried all the 'fixes' under the sun and NOTHING stops this problem. The problem is, whenever i get to the Super Duper Mart for the wasteland survival guide book mission, EVERYTIME i get either near there, outside it or opening the door to go in, it CTDS. EVERYTIME. It also crashes often when going to see silver in her house in springvale. I can not possibly think of anything else to do that would fix this. Can someone please help? Am I missing something? is the unofficial patch a piece of garbage and causing the crash? my pc specs are very good nvidia gtx260creative labs xtreme gamer fatali1yamd phenom II x4 720asus m4n8 deluxe motherboarddisplay is hdmi lead direct from graphics card hdmi port to 27" sony bravia tv.psu is brand named 700W so you see my pc is more than capable of running this game without a problem. please please please help, i'm so close to just giving it up and never trying again. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do this one at a time untill you find the culprit. Disable your merged patch for now as well. This has happend to me many times and it can be a pain to find the trouble maker.

Bazerk83 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 But I've only installed fook 2.1 and enhanced blood plus the master fixes. I had this problem before fook 2.1 even existed and I can't see how blood textures would cause a wasteland crash by the same area when not even in combat and just walking or opening a door. Are you telling me fook 2 has a bug near AND in the super duper mart? I'm sure plenty of people have or are using some version of fook, surely this would have been discovered and fixed by now? Thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your reply. all im saying is disable all your mods and see if you can enter super duper mart area. that should be the very first thing you should try.
