ginnyfizz Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Hi all! I know that this is a common problem and has been asked before. I have now a good idea of what I am supposed to do to get scripts to save, but cannot get it to work. Apparently, the way to get scripts to save is to use GECK Powerup. Having re-installed my Steam Directory outside of ProgramFiles X86 it is now thus C:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Fallout New Vegas First I re-installed the GECK and then re-installed NVSE, and installed latest GECK Powerup. Second, apparently I need to launch the GECK with NVSE now to get Powerup to work and to do this, and I quote from the NVSE readme;- "Open a command prompt window, navigate to your NV install direcory, and type "nvse_loader -editor". Alternately you can create a shortcut to nvse_loader.exe, open the properties window and add "-editor" to the Target field." It is at this stage that I am failing. When I open the command prompt window it gives me C:\Users\(my name)and no matter what I do I cannot get to the stage where I can type C:\Games...etc.Neither can I seem to change the target field on the nvse_loader.exe shortcut. Would it be possible for some kind person to type a blow by blow instruction, complete with where I should put spaces etc, when to hit return etc, of how to do it(a) By command prompt. Ie exactly how I get to the C:\ without all that users malarkey and then type in the NV install path etc(b) What exactly I should type in the Target field of the nvse_loader.exe shortcut. The error I get with this is the "Not a valid file path" blah. I thank you very much in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunnie Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 All you really need to do is create a shortcut on your desktop with the target as: "C:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas\nvse_loader.exe" -editor This will start GECK with NVSE and the powerup will be loaded anyway since it is a plugin.

ginnyfizz Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Hey Sunnie that's great, thanks for your help! What I was doing wrong was adding the word editor in the wrong place. I just typed exactly as you said and the GECK launched.Now to see if it will save scripts! Edit: OH YES! It does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
