Zorkel Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 So ever since I installed fallout 3 on windows 8 I have had issues with it.And quite a few other games, not sure why to be honest. The problems I have so far, falloutlauncher won't run so can't generate the needed *.ini files properly. (solved by changing in falloutNV's ini files)So far fallout3 will run but quit the game and it hang indefinitely, and it seems at times when choosing to save it will randomly hang indefinitely. I have installed a few mods, haven't tested it extensively by playing yet. Could anyone hazard a guess on how to figure out why fallout doesn't like quitting? Doesn't matter if I open console type qqq, or use escape quit game. I use windows 8 64bit if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth gold for me. And a few othervery lovely features. But if I get spare money at the end of the month I will get a second ssd and make a virtual install of windows 7.
