pwwhdr70 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I can't seem to find a solution to my problem, since I'm not sure what exactly the problem is. I'm using the stable version (0.16.15) of Vortex, modding Fallout 3. One mod is currently installed. Machine is Windows 10 x64 with 16GB ram. Here's what happened: 1. I had Fallout 3 running with just a handful of mods installed and working. Everything was fine. 2. I tried installing Midhrastic ENB. The instructions aren't great, so the game crashed. After several attempts, I gave up on the effort and decided not to use it. 3. The folder was a real mess, and I hadn't installed many mods up to that point, so I uninstalled Fallout 3 in order to install fresh. Except the uninstaller didn't delete anything. So I manually deleted everything from the game folder and Documents/My Games/Fallout 3. I left my Save Games as is. 4. I reinstalled Fallout 3 and all the mods I had before I tried Midhrastic ENB. At this point, none of them worked. 5. After poking around, I realized that there were no mods listed in the Plugins tab. The only things there are the game DLCs. 6. I removed all mods with the exception of Games for Windows Live Disable. I am using that as a test case because I am absolutely certain that it worked back in Step 1. It shows up in the Mods tab, but not the Plugins tab. For what it's worth, I have 50+ mods installed on Skyrim SE and it works fine. <sigh> What did I do wrong and how can I fix it?

HadToRegister Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Did you DEPLOY the mods after installing?Actually, you'll probably have to PURGE, then RE-DEPLOY because it looks like you deleted all of the hardlinks to the mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Also, make sure you don't have the "LOADED BY ENGINE" Status filter enable in the plugins tab, because that filters out all Plugins except for the Game esms...BEcause this is what you'll see in the plugins tab no matter how many mods you have installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Games for Windows Live disabler has no Plugin, it has a DLL that's why you're not seeing it in the plugin list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwwhdr70 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thanks for the tip about Windows Live Disabler. Not a good test case, it turns out. I installed a couple of other mods to try again and now THEY work! Yay! Now it looks like Games for Windows Live Disabler is the only thing not working. A fair trade, I'd say.

JimboUK Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I think FOSE disables GFWL so you probably don't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AugustaCalidia Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I think FOSE disables GFWL so you probably don't need it. Yes, when launching FO3 using "fose_loader.exe," Windows Live will be disabled. That's clearly stated in the FOSE ReadMe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to put the Games for Windows live Disabler DLL in the Data\FOSE\Plugins folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
