Only 3 mods installed, but I get regular crashes anyway

Post » Sat Feb 19, 2011 6:27 am

So, I've patched my fallout to the newest version, and I'm using BOSS to sort my small load order, but I still get regular crashes. I get them mostly when I have just killed something. Here's my load order:


Fallout3.esm
Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch.esm
CRAFT.esm
CALIBR.esm
FO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esm
DarNifiedUIF3.esp
FO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esp
Fellout-Full.esp

Total active plugins: 8
Total plugins: 16

Thanks for any help :foodndrink:

I'm not sure but I think there is a mod http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4968 for getting the major mods to work togeather. I hope this helps :nod:

Are the crashes when you're looting bodies? I crashed quite often while looting Talon Company and sometimes while looting Regulators. I suspected it was related to something in their inventory but was never able to narrow it down to the offending item so I stopped looting them.

Biggest mod first: Check FWE. Darn UI should never be causing crashes and neither should Fellout.

I think your crashing issue is two folded. 1) BOSS made for support of FO3 but master file doesn't actually have the data(last time I checked) so it does nothing. Looks like manual sorting is in order. 2)Missing Dependencies - FWE is a large and modular beast however you still need to have the "must have" modules or it will lack dependencies and most likely cause a crash. You can skip the optional ones but not the mandatory modules.

@Bigcrazewolf: Okay, I don't need to use FOIP, because I only have 3 non conflicting mods installed.

@goulsrpeople2: No, it doesn't happen while looting bodies.

@Hattix: I can't just deactivate FWE, removing it from my save file makes a lot of changes to the game, which will most likely make my save stop working.

@Jerom: I've looked at the suggested load order, and it's exactly the same as my load order is now. And I'm using all of the required modules for FWE.

Thanks for the replies everyone :)

Meh, I am grasping at straws here due to lack of information. Let's try to sort it out.
Is it predictable crash? Does it happen every time you do a certain action? Have you tried starting a new game with mods and without the mods to see if the crash happen in those case? (Fallout is quite buggy even without any mods, some sort of RAM cleaner might sort it out in that case.)

If clean slate is working properly make sure you got the latest version of each of the mods and their respective hot fixes.

I hope that you get the game working :)

Are you using the latest hotfix for DarnUI and the FWE add-on ? They are availaible in the thread of the DarnUI.
Not sure missing them could cause the crash but who knows ?

I do have the FWE hotfix, but not the darnui one. I'm gonna install that, and see if it helps :)

Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch.esm

Remove that and see what occurs.
I had reproducable crashes and removed it and it seemed to work.
Adding it back in brought the return of the crash.
