Game Crashing - Would appreciate help (Small, tested LO) : Fallout 3

» Fri Dec 12, 2014 11:10 pm

Hello everyone,

I've been enjoying Fallout 3, and have what I believed to be a stable load order. I'm 23 hours in, without a single crash until now. I'm doing the Reilly's Rangers quest and am on the second floor of the Our Lady of Hope Hospital. I can save my game at any point while in the hospital fine. Once I exit the second floor door to Vernon Square (where you cross the fallen crane), any time I attempt to save my game, it crashes.

I can reproduce this crash 100% of the time. Something about zoning back into Vernon Square is screwing things up? Additionally, I had no issues saving the game in Vernon Square prior to entering the hospital.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I've attached my load order from Wrye Flash 30.3

Thank you in advance!

Since you can reproduce the crash 100% of the time, make a save before exiting the hospital and then disable all your mods. Go back into the game, adding one mod at a time until the problem repeats. This will give you the mod that is causing the problem.

Another possible solution would be to load the game into FO3Edit and check which mods are affecting that world space.

I can see nothing wrong with you load order other than having two Optional Restore Tracers active. However, you are using quite a few mods I do not.

I remember having issues with advanced sneak detection or whatever that setting is called that comes with one of the options for FWE, when saving Reily's Rangers.

I think it is a corrupt spawn. Try waiting 72 hours, then re-do the steps that lead you to the crash.
