Issue with GFWL and loading DLC from GoTY Edition

Post » Sat Aug 06, 2011 12:28 am

I own Fallout 3 (Not GOTY edition), it's connected to my GFWL account so it has saved my saves in the account.

I purchased Fallout 3 GOTY Edition on Steam thinking I could go back and play my old saves with the DLC that's included in the GOTY edition.

I have all the DLC checked before hitting the launch button. GFWL signs me in and shows that my saves are available but when I click on the Downloads. There is no content available...even though it's the GOTY edition.

Is there any way for it to recognize the DLC included in the edition so I could use my old saves?

If not, is there a way for me to get it to recognize the DLC in general? (I tried making a new account to see if it would work but it didn't)

I also used the key included in the game on my GFWL account...would that screw it up if I tried to make a new account if I can't play the DLC on my old saves?

Any help would be great, I searched on the Steam forums and found someone with a similar issue but his saves were from the 360 version...it wouldn't read the DLC.
