Darn UI installation

[llloyd]

Ok. So. I recently reinstalled Fallout 3 again. Was installing mods in NMM when I came to DarnUI, specifically the dui_f3a11.zip from the DarnUI website. I tried installing it with NMM and it crashed it. I remember that NMM isn't great with FOMODs and some can crash it. So I nabbed and reinstalled FOMM and DarnUI's FOMOD crashed that so... Umm...

That's the crash log from FOMM. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

Completely uninstall Fallout 3 and any and all files associated with it. Reinstall Fallout 3 in a location outside of the "Program FIles" folder.

 

I have my game installed as such: C:\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout3.

 

There are some members that suggest installing the game in the C:\Users\"NAME"\Documents\My Games folder. It makes no difference where you install the game, as long as it is not in "Program Files"

Fallout 3,and all my Steam games are installed to E:/Program Files/Steam, so...

There is a non-FOMOD version of DarnUI out. Look for dui_f3a11.7z (and it is a ".7z" unlike the FOMOD one that is a ".zip".
