I had installed FWE and was playing as a raider and decided to set up my base in the Franklin Station (Falls Church/Mason Dst Metro) which can be entered near the Hubris Comics fast travel location. Using G.E.C.K I placed a mattress and a number of other items in the ticket booth. I decided to restart, once again as a raider with my little mod still active, and headed for franklin station and noticed that this time the skill book, first aid case, missile, metants did not appear within the ticket booth as they are supposed to. Also there were no ghouls on the mezzanine level.

I have deleted my mod and reinstalled the game with the latest patch and no mods activated and still this problem persists. Does anyone have any ideas of what may be causing this to happen.

Sounds like you never activated your mod... but that can't be the case, since you said you had it active.

What other mods do you run that affect that specific area? You may need to crack 'em all open with the GECK and see which one puts the * at the end of the zone ID...

Problem solved.

I'm such an idiot. I now know that it is not a problem but that those things I had mentioned in the opening post are level related. They don't appear until level nine. Thanks for your reply though.
