TWIST3DVizion Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 K i am new to this whole modding thing, and i have no idea how to get a mod that i download off this site to work with fallout 3. Does it need to be saved to a specific place? Do i need to open it somehow? I have been looking but i cant find anything that gives me like a step by step way of doing it. Any help is much appreciated. thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ondaderthad Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I assume that you at least know how to manipulate files in your computer... (if not then learn that first) Download the Mod to a convenient place (desktop is fine)Open the "Data" folder of your Fallout installation Should be:C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout 3\Data\Drag the Mod archive (zp or rar) to that Data folder.Right click on it and select "Extract Here.." option. Now go to "My Documents" folder and open "My Games\Fallout 3"Look for the file FALLOUT.INIOpen it in Notepadgo to the top menu "Edit.. Replace" (or Ctrl H )find bInvalidateOlderFiles=0 and replace with bInvalidateOlderFiles=1it is towards the end in the [Archives] sectionSave and exit. You only need to do this once for the first mod you install. This is all for Windows XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
