if you cant open data folder

[3ERROR2]

hi guys if like me,for some reason ,you are unable to open the data folder in the launch menu,to chek your mods ,fallow these steps

 

(this is for windows xp but i think it should work for vista to)

 

 

find:C:\Documents and Settings\(your username)\Local Settings\Application Data\Fallout3

 

you should see there a text file name DLCList.txt

 

now creat a text file and name it plugins

 

in this file wriht the mod name file,should end up whit .esp and save it

 

now go to: C:\Documents and Settings\(your username\My Documents\My Games\Fallout3

 

there is the fallout3.ini ,open it and find the line

 

bInvalidateOlderFiles=0

change it for 1

 

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 <-like this

 

this is for alloweding pluggins

 

now paste your .esp file in your data folder of the instaled game if isnt already done. and you have your mod install
