Help for a first time fallout 3 modder

Post » Thu Apr 07, 2011 5:20 am

Hi,

Having recently bought a new pc I have bought Fallout 3 GOTY edition from steam. I have played FO3 before on the PS3 and now i wish to mod it. I installed a few mods i wish to use (see attached mod list) using this guide http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMhUR9rpatA I have FOMM, FOSE and ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! installed as well. However upon launching FO I get an instant crash to desktop saying "Fallout 3 has stopped working" It worked perfectly before installing the mods. My pc can handle it, GTX 460 1GB graphics card, 4GB RAM and core 2 quad core processor. Every other game I am playing works with mods, New vegas, Oblivion, Morrowind ect. I have also done the ini change so it will use 2 cores.

If you need more information just ask. Thanks for reading and any help will be much appreciated.

You have an awful lot of mods installed on your PC, and any of them may have a bug. The game is already very complex without adding unknown software. Besides, it takes out a lot of fun out of the game. Now using some cheats thru the console helps to get unstuck. I would suggest you read the tweak guide at this site :http://tweakguides.com/Fallout3_1.html. then _2.html thru 13. If you must have mods. install them one at the time, and play to see if you crash. Good luck!
