Ok now that i got that out of the way. I noticed that anytime i have my companion there will be triggers in the game that cause it to crash. I'd say im accidently hitting these areas, every 15 minutes, the exact amount of time to be annoying unfortunately. I really have no idea why, but if i try and walk,jump, or swim in the wrong areas the whole game will just crash with no error message except for "fallout new Vegas has stopped working..."
I don't have any mods, except for I added my own music to the radio, but even with the radio off it will still mess up, naturally i wont run into this w/o my companion. But i rather enjoy heaving a companion, it gives me someone to hold stuff for me when i exceed my weight.
I guess worse case scenario ill just play w/o companion but I'd rather not have to.
I have been playing
fallout NV for a pretty long time now and just ran into the problem. Never had another problem with fallout NV always worked fine, a lil glitching and lagging but this is the first time it crashed on me.
I also have fallout: 3 on this comp, and when i use companions on that, it works fine.
even skyrim, and yes i use companions and yes it works.
I have a alienware Mx11
windows 7
please help,
