Fallout 3 crashing error (Possibly mod order)

[Xray202]

Ok so I all of a sudden would get random crashes here and there and when I just finished playing the Pitt I headed into my underground hideout (mod) and tried to sort my new gear. everytime i try to use the light/armor sorter, right after it finishes, the game freezes and it crashes. Does anyone know what's wrong because I don't think it's the sort because it used to work fine. This is my mod order.

First of all, your load order is completely messed up. Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch goes below Fallout3.esm and DLCs, 99% of mods do. Run BOSS to sort the load order and make a merged patch. Here's how to make a merged patch:

 

1. Start FO3Edit

2. Load your mods

3. When everything loads select all your mods, then right-click on the mod list and select Create Merged Patch

4. A small window will pop up asking you to name your patch, write something and click Create

5. Now when exiting FO3Edit another window will pop up named Save Changed Files, click OK

6. When starting FOMM or FO3 Launcher put your patch LAST in the load order and check it

 

And if the random crashing continues after all this, export the new load order and post it here.

 

Oh, having AK47 and Classic Fallout Weapons is useless when you have Apocalypse Armory, all of them are integrated into AA.

Ok I tried to run and I already knew about the fallout 3 unofficial patch is not in right order, but when I use Fallout 3 Edit (which I just got), it says unofficial patch not right order blablabalba, but how do I rearrange the order in FO3 edit? Btw is Fo3 Edit the same as BOSS?

FO3Edit is FO3Edit. Go here for instructions: http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/8629. It is used to edit your game.

B.O.S.S. is Better Obilivion Sorting Software. It is used to sort your load order.

If you don't have it, get FOMM, Fallout Mod Manager and use it to manage your mods and start the game.

Also, get FOSE, Fallout Script Extender. Some mods will need it to run.

Also, go here and read it: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/120735-how-to-install-mods-for-fallout-3/

Read all the ReadMe that came with your mods, they are there to help.

You cannot reorder your mods with FO3Edit, you either make your adjustments on the load screen in the game or use Fallout Mod Manager.

After some examination of your load order, these are some plugins that can cause problems:

 

[X] Sensible Dismemberment Lite.esp

[X] Sensible Dismemberment.esp

 

Only use one of them, not both.

 

[X] houseexpansion.esp

[X] Expanded Megaton House V3-No Stove.esp

 

Do both of those edit the same house? If they do, use only one, not both.

 

[X] BobbleheadsFTW.esp

[X] BobbleheadsFTW_Final.esp

 

 

I'm not sure what this mod is so I'm not sure should you use only one or both plugins, I'm guessing one (probably BobbleheadsFTW_Final.esp).

 

Also, I recommend not installing mods with Nexus Mod Manager, most mods that are on the FO3 Nexus are old, meaning that they are uploaded years before NMM appeared. Some of those mods are placed in a folder named like the author so they don't get installed right. Use manual installation and FOMM, avoid NMM.
