CTDs upon fat travel/entering/leaving

[MrNeedles]

Hi!

 

As the title suggest, my game runs just fine most of the time, but I suffer from frequent CTDs in very specific situations.

The game crashes...

 

1) When I first load up a game and try to save/leave the current interior or enter a new one. I already found out I could work around this by killing my character once via console and letting the game reload, but it's a temporary and very annoying solution at best.

 

2) Fast Travel. Some locations work, some don't. There does not seem to be any particular reason, someties one that didn't work before works just fine on the next try. Modded locations work as well or not as vanilla ones. Fort Bannister is just a crashfest, but it always has been in all of my recent playthroughs for some reason, modded or not.

 

3) Entering / leaving an interior. Okay, here's the deal: IF is started my save by killing myself, I can leave the current interior just fine. I usually can even fast travel and enter new interior somewhere else. However, if I try to leave said interior, BOOM, crash.

 

4) Saving. Autosaves are disabled. I can do a hard save just after I started the game in the usual way (killing myself first) and even once I leave any interios and move around on the outside. The more time passes, though, the likelier the game will crash if I make another hard save ANYWHERE in the game world. If I enter a new interior and try to save inside, the game also crashes. Arrrgh!

 

 

Okay, that's it. I'll gladly upload my load order if it helps. I really don't use that many mods at the moment. My PC's specs are pretty bad, because I'm a poor sod. I can also upload them later, though.

I'd also like to mention that I already tried to play the game with one mod loadout, then changed to a second one, then tried it without mods at all. The same problems persist to haunt me any way.

 

 

So, yeah. I hope somebody can help me with that. I'd really love to stop smashing the keyboard every time I try to have a little peace and quiet in the wasteland we all love so much. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

 

Greetings,

ive got the same issue im running windows 7 AMD phenom II quad core with 8gb ram, i have my nivida doing DSR for another game so its also running fallout at DSR which ive pretty much ruled out as being the issue.

what my feeling is, is thats its a memory or a Muiti core issue, ive followed a well laid out update / issue fixer guide on youtube. and made some personal tweaks my glitchy radio sound is fixed using blackbelt codec pack

using LAV codec instead of the MADFliter (couldnt get working) link to vid and my post https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0aLffIuhxI reverted back to the default codec to test so its not the custom codec.

back to the issue we're both having is loading screens usually entering buildings im not getting it as much by making some personal tweaks in FOSE config>display >advanced>

testHDR = false

forcemultipass = true

 

--might not be needed-- as im running DSR

fullscreen = false

ignoreresolutioncheck = true

and i set my native screen res 1960x1080

 

ctl alt del bring task manager up show processes for all users right click on fallout 3.exe set affinity to use 2 out of the 4 cores.

i dont get the interior loading freezes hardly ever now but im sure the bug has just become more mobile i now get it in VATS PIPboy and some interior/exterior loading screens but far less frequently so i can now play the game.

sometimes i get a freeze that if i just alt tab to bring up task manager (still loaded) i switch back to the game and its paused.
