Game closes when fast traveling to Robotics Disposal Ground

Post » Sat Nov 28, 2015 1:19 am

Every time I try to fast travel to the Robotics Disposal Ground east of Sanctuary Hills, the game closes during the loading screen. I tested to make sure that I could fast travel elsewhere and everywhere else I've tried works fine. There isn't even a warning or error message when it happens, it just closes and I'm left to wonder what just happened. The only modification I have made to the games files are regarding aesthetic changes; I changed the FOV to 90 and the vertical mouse sensitivity to equal the horizontal mouse sensitivity. Other than those two things the game remains unchanged. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I have discovered another area that causes the same crashing issue. I will keep adding the areas as I find them.

First question to ask, can you just walk there? That might reset what ever script is hanging related to that place. Speaking of which, is there a quest related to that place? If so, perhaps you have to finish an objective somewhere else first. That was a cause of some FT crashes in FO3

I did try walking there just a moment ago and discovered that fast traveling is not the issue, it is actually just being in the area that crashes the game. The only quest tied to the area is to eliminate the raiders at USAF Station Olivia and I can not actually get to it through fast travel or, as I've just discovered, walking.

In past games, waiting for 73 hours would clear up any scripts that are causing issues, don't know what the interval is in this game yet, it may be the same. So, try waiting or sleeping for 73 hours (not 72, but 3 24 hour periods and then at least one 1 hour period)

Have you killed the raiders at the Station Olivia? Try that and see what happens. Unless of course you have to walk through the Robot yard to get there...

I'll give it a shot and let you know how it works. I forgot to say this before, but it is the entire area that causes crashes, not just the Disposal Grounds. I can't walk within about 10 yards of either without it crashing.

EDIT: The 73 hours trick didn't work and I'm still unable to go anywhere near the Robotics Disposal Grounds and USAF Station Olivia. I'll just avoid that area for now I guess. It's a shame that it has stopped me from completing a quest, even if it is just a side mission.
