Cannot pick up fission batteries or use chemistry sets

Post » Fri Aug 10, 2012 4:13 am

Hello,

I have the fallout ultimate edition from steam.

I cannot pick up fission batteries. When my cursor goes over one it doesn't show it as a take-able item. If I add one in the console and drop it, the item will just float in mid air and while it can be picked up again, I have to aim my cursor at a point nowhere near the actual item.

Also, since using the chemistry set in Doc's house at the beginning of the game, no other chemistry sets I come across can be used. Again, there is no indication that they are a usable object.

I'm not running any mods.

Any suggestions? Would a reinstall help?

I am playing on the PS3, and there are some batteries I have come across that have nothing when I put the cursor over it. Not sure if it's a glitch or they just added them for show. There are still plenty to find, just some I have found can't be picked up.

I was just in Gun Runners yesterday and found a few.
