Exterior cells completely resetting upon load : Fallout 3

» Thu May 03, 2012 2:13 am

I'm having a problem where, when moving into an exterior cell -- loading a save included -- everything in the cell resets after the loading screen. The most obvious problem (well, the only problem that I've noticed) is that random encounters will respawn. For example, I'll save outside the Super-Duper Mart after having just killed a Yao Guai that was several levels premature. Upon reloading that save, I might find myself face-to-face with a troupe of Raiders. Or a pack of dogs. Or an abnormally ugly deathclaw. Et cetera, et cetera. I have a feeling that it might be related to MMM, but I can't find anybody who has replicated the bug.

Below is the last known mod list I was using. It's a number of months old, so I'm not 100% it's the setup I was using when I was experiencing the problems. Unfortunately I got frustrated with the bug and put the game up for a while. Hopefully you wizards can figure it out and let me get back into the game.

That's a quite common report from MMM and there's not really anything you can do about it aside from not reloading a save made outdoors.

Ah. I was afraid of that. Oh well, I'll see what I can do with it. Thank you very much for the help
