Reshki Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I've been trying to get FO3 GOTY via steam to run for two days now. I've found the problem. My mods are not the problem the game runs fine with or without them. BUT when I activate archiveinvalidation the game ALWAYS crashes. Even on a clean install, with no mods, with FOSE, with most recent Bethesda update, if I activate or install manually a archive invalidator it will crash. I don't need to tell everyone hows frustrating this is, since as you know most mods HAVE to have this to display properly. I've got a computer that can run circles around this game performance wise, but I will tell you my operating system is windows 7 64bit as I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Also I reinstalled steam so that FO3 WOULD'NT be in the program files folder so thats not the problem. PLEASE please assist I'm about to explode from rage! Thank you.

M48A5 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 If you have Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) or Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM), ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! is built in and you should not try to install another copy. If you don't have either, get FOMM http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/640 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have either, get FOMM http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/640Thanks for your input. I've tried both and I'm currently using FOMM's invalidator to no avail. It just isn't working. When I deactivate it the game runs fine with or without mods, but as soon as I activate the invaldator it crashes on start up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reshki Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 This issue has been SOLVED... The solution is DON'T use DarnUI if you have my problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetaSpectre Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Don't use Companion Commander either, things that modify the menu cause invalidated to crash the game upon start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
