WarPathFallout Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 hey..again.. does anyone know how to fix the crash after the preparing to launch window. i mean this is seriously getting annoying. ive uninstalled and reinstalled steam and fallout new vegas 6 times now, fresh copies, and every single *%(*ing time its the same crap. i click play on fallout new vegas, preparing to launch comes up, i click data files, load loose data files (just in case) and the same thing thats been happening for 5 freaking days now happens..blackscreen..first opening credits, it closes and shows fallout has stopped working. if anyone can remotely help id apprciate it. i mean really this is bs. after fresh copies theres no reason this crap should be happening. if no one can help please show me where to contact steam cause if i cant get this to work, i will get my money back. and sorry for the rude langauge. ive had maybe 10 hours of sleep in the past 5 days thanks to coffee and fallout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivea Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 So this is a 100% total fresh install, where you went through and uninstalled the game then delete the data folder and any mods within then removed the files in the My games (the INI manly). And then redownloaded the game from Steam, and with no mods it crashes? I highly suggest if you are installing mods, you take the time to make sure your installing them and managing them correctly. Mods are not somthing you want to skimp reading up on. I do not know how to get help from steam, but the links are at the bottom of the steam page:https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=1223-QROC-4460 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarPathFallout Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 Well for starters i greatly appricate the reply, and yes ive deleted everything from the steam folder even steam itself. With no mods it just starts to load to the first opening credits then crashes with falloutnv has stopes working. I used the nexus mod manager to manually delete every mod. Still the same thing, crash and falloutnv has stopped working. Been the same thing since i bought it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivea Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 And you removed all the ini files in your My Games -> FalloutNV folder? Damn, thats very very odd... Afraid only thing I can suggest is to try and check the steam people or even the beth forums:http://forums.bethsoft.com/forum/112-fallout-new-vegas-pc-issues/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarPathFallout Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 well, i (crossing fingers) maybe have actually got it this time. i completely reinstalled windows and changed a few dll files, it started running and allowed me to start a new game, i just hope its good. last time it let me play until i tried adding a mod. then crashed but i saved it fresh install to a disc. so next time it wont take 6 hours to download -___- lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
