Fallout 3 has stopped working help

[M48A5]

I would suggest you make the game Large Address Aware https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/6510, add New Vegas Anti Crashhttps://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/53635

 

and add Fallout Stutter Remover https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/8886. These are all files that will help game performance.

I've done everything I can possibly think of. Changing .ini settings, using the 4gb patch, the LAA, stutter remover, NVAC etc. but it just decides to freeze randomly typically when I press E to go through a door, but it's done it sometimes when I'm walking the wasteland. Still freezing randomly, doesn't appear to be in any particular area. I'm not even convinced it is my mods now because that'd likely just CTD and that's not happening.

 

LOOT isn't giving me any errors other the unofficial patch has 2 deleted nav mesh files, although this shouldn't cause freezing, but cause a crash instead I think. https://i.imgur.com/bzXmTo5.png & https://i.imgur.com/DVFIpd5.png

LOOT does not now nor has it ever sorted FO3 mods correctly.

 

Just check the FWE page for a sample load order and compare it to the mess LOOT gives you.

I appreciate your help but I am not using LOOT to sort my load order. My load order matches the FWE page. I am not even using LOOT often, only to check if it gives me any errors. My load order has been manually sorted.

 

Fallout 3 isn't crashing, it's literally just freezing and states "Fallout 3 has stopped working". I'm not sure how to fix it because it's doing it without mods too and I've tried all the stuff I can think of - .ini patches, 4gb, LAA etc.

Please provide me with the latest saved game file. Allow me to inspect the software.

Wow, if you don't mind that'd be great. Here you go. https://filebin.net/vsa26vxdw3veo0s4

 

I can get through maybe 5-15 minutes of playing before it freezes and states Fallout 3 has stopped working. It doesn't seem to be for any particular reason as it's done it after entering an interior, during combat, just roaming around etc.

 

I am using Windows 10 and I have installed the 4gb patch, LAA and most of the other stuff to allow it to run on Windows 10. I don't know if it's my mods causing the freezing or the game itself. I actually suspect it's the game itself because it says Fallout 3 has stopped working after freezing, rather than immediately crashing to the desktop and LOOT isn't giving me any indicators that any of my mods are conflicting. I used FO3Edit to clean all of the DLC .esms as they had ITMs etc. The only warning LOOT gives is that the Unofficial patch has 2 undeleted nav meshes although I'm not quite sure this would be causing the game to freeze.

You provided two images that appear to be a load order sorted by LOOT and neither of the images are close to matching what is on the FWE page.

 

I'm out, Kitty, it's all yours.

we will start with that data I highlighted, each need to be sorted together and in the correct order.

Delete the current merged patch until we clean up the mess.

understand, all weather, and lighting mods, anything that changes world-space environment must be loaded last.

 

here, they are not. I'll add a link here or you can open my Spoiler tag under my name and download the correct versions fomm sort ordering tools required t at least get you closer to correct load orders.
