Can't access GFW Live : Fallout 3

» Fri Sep 23, 2011 11:08 pm

I have the retail vanilla version of the game. Before applying some mods, I could access Live and log in. After installing some mods, pressing 'Live' on the ingame menu does nothing. I've disabled all mods in both Fallout Mod manager and the launcher. Does Fallout Script Extender cause this?

FOSE will cause the game to disable Live.

* FOSE is incompatible with Windows Live, so when running via fose_loader.exe, Live will be disabled. As Live operates as a cheat-detection tool similar to Punkbuster or VAC, FOSE's in-memory modifications are inherently incomptible. Don't worry about being banned or anything like that, everything still works when running Fallout normally. To download DLC, launch fallout3.exe directly instead of via the loader. After downloading the DLC, you will then need to move the DLC files in to the Fallout data folders to use them like any other mod.

Cool, I deleted the FOSE files and can connect again.
