v1.2.0 Released!
Important: uninstall UF3P before installing the latest version!

The Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch is an extensive mod fixing various bugs throughout the Fallout 3 world and in the official DLC's!


How do I report a bug?
All bugs should be reported on the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch bug tracker http://uf3p.gamedata.us/view_all_bug_page.php (http://uf3p.redirectme.net/). Registration isn't required and highly recommended you use it to report bugs as it will help me greatly in keeping track of everything but of course if you'd prefer you can still post/[email=quarny@gmail.com]email[/email] me any bug reports. When reporting object placement bugs or pretty much anything simply open your console, click the object with the problem or one near it and write down the formID, only report it if the first 2 numbers are 00 (Fallout.esm) or 01 (Anchorage.esm) otherwise it means a mod added that object and it isn't something I can fix.


Important Notes
-The Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch has been created for Fallout 3 v1.1+ english (or v1.0 + fake patch) and should not be used with any other Fallout 3 versions.
-The Unofficial DLC Patches will ONLY work if the DLC's are in your \Fallout 3\Data\ folder otherwise using them will crash your game. If you want to move the DLC's out of G4WL then simply do a file seach in your "C:\Documents and Settings" for *.esm" (make sure the option "Search hidden files and folders" is checked) once found simply cut and paste them into your \Fallout 3\Data\ folder and enable them like any other plugin and also move all bsa's too (*.bsa).
-ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! activated upon installing UF3P, it will not be deactivated\removed upon uninstalling.
-If you have already been afflicted with the Charon and Ahzrukhal "stuck" bug then it will be reset so you can talk to Charon and initial the event again.
-The Mouse Menu Acceleration Fix will not be removed upon uninstalling the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch, if you want it gone then use the shortcut created in your start menu to remove it before uninstalling.
-The G.E.C.K SArchiveList Fix will not be removed upon uninstalling the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch.
-If you are already afflicted the bug that causes Dogmeat\Sergeant RL-3\Fawkes to having massive amounts of HP it cannot be undone, UF3P's fix simply stops it from happening.

v1.2.0
UF3P: Improved the installer, now uses the "component" view instead of "tasks" also added a warning if DLC(s) are detected in your G4WL folder which would cause Fallout 3 to crash if you tried to load a plugin that relied on the DLC.
UF3P: Fixed the Glowing One glow fix for the Glowing One's invloved in the Tenpenny Tower attack causing it to mess up the variables (Altered Script: MS12FeralGhoulScript, Deleted Script: UF3PGlowingOneGlowFixMS12Script).
UF3P: Fixed the Protectron "flying" fix, as a side effect of fixing it any pre-place dead Protectron had their arms floating off their bodies until you "touched" them (Altered Mesh: \Creatures\Protectron\Skeleton.nif).
UF3P: Fixed the installer appending "Fallout 3" when you selected a folder, eg if I manually selected my Fallout 3 folder it would appear as "D:\Games\Fallout 3\Fallout 3".
UF3P: Removed the VATS accuracy perk fix as it was fixed in the official v1.5.0.22 patch (Removed Quest: UF3PVATSPerksFix, Removed Script: UF3PVATSPerksFixScript, Removed Global Variable: UF3PVATSFixOff).
UF3P: Fixed not being able to loot Ymir\Frank if you happened to kill him while they where in the middle of the event due to the previous fix (Altered Script: YmirSCRIPT).

UF3P: UF3P's installer will now detect and offer to remove INumHWTHreads from your fallout.ini if it is set to anything other then 2 as it can cause a varying range of crashes. Fallout 3 internally has INumHWTHreads set to 2 so having it stated in fallout.ini at all is useless.

Thanks for the hard work ^_^

Thanks. Almost time for a new game. I am tired of waiting for Bethesda to fix the broken VATS perks.

I use Fake Patch,i need to disable the Console Var?

Thanks for the update, the Unofficial Patch is a must-have. Great that you're also supporting the DLCs, should I ever get them (if Beth graces us with a patch to fix V.A.T.S. and if they're released in some other way then GfWL, as I won't garble my English Fallout game with German DLCs because you can only aquire the localized version via GfWL) I'll be sure to use them too.

One question about the V.A.T.S. perk fix in the UOP: I'm using FOSE and the 1.0.15 version of the game, so I'll have to disable it via console, right?

I'm using FOSE and the Fake Patch with the 1.0.15 version of the game. Do I have to disable the VATS perk fix, too?

i disabled and enabled unofficial patch but i'm still getting this.. its in robco industries, of the wasteland survival guide quest, a lot of the already dead robots have their arms up in the air.

if i press "z" to grab it, it drops everything

I've gotten that too. The way I used to fix it was shoot the robot once. The arms and combat inhibitor should snap into place with the robot on the floor.

I have a suggestion is I may. Would it be possible to have perminent fires emit light? The fire from a blown generator never dies and I just seems weird that there is no light coming from it.

I reiterate the need for the AII and UF3P BSA archives need to be shortened in name due to the 256-char limit in the BSA load list that the v1.0 people are subjected to. Those in the know can do it themselves, but having the installer do this by default will ensure that far less people will run into issues because the char limit on the line was exceeded.

Yes, as they're already fully functional and there's no need for that particular fix if using a 1.0.0.15 setup. Just enter your console in game then enter "StopQuest UF3PVatsPerkFix". Also, be sure to add the UF3P.bsa (after condensing its filename) to your sArchiveList or extract its contents to Data to keep your sArchiveList= entry under 255 characters. http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/charcount.shtml

should i use both the Unofficial and the Fake patches?

That's up to you. If you have two or more graphics cards, I'd say probably not to as 1.1 and 1.4 had SLI fixes, but otherwise, go for it. By using the Fake Patch approach, you'll sidestep the VATS lag, keep the VATS perks functional, be able to take grenades/missiles out of the air, NPC's won't wear guns as wristwatches, and Fake Patch is fully compatible with UF3P. Just keep in mind that setting up your .bsa'a in your sArchiveList is a crucial step as a 1.0.0.15 Fallout3.exe won't autoload corresponding archives.

All the dirt on http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/charcount.shtml

Does anyone else get a crash when attempting to save in proximity to Lamplight Caverns? I am, and when I turn InvalidateOlderFiles to 0, I can save, which leads me to believe that a mesh or something involved with UFOP around Lamplight is causing it...

EDIT: Nevermind. Dunno what its deal was, but the problem was solved by uninstalling and reinstalling UF3P.

well i have both Fake and UF3P running but companions still come thru loading screens wearing their weapon drawn, tho not nearly as often.

and how do i "setting up your .bsa'a in your sArchiveList is a crucial step"?? i don't think i've ever seen a bsa file. thanks

I love UF3P but what happened to the manual version? I like using Fallout Mod Manager to install and uninstall mods.

Quarn said he will release a manual version when the 1.1.x branch wont need more bug fixes.

That's covered in Fake Patches OP. Let's keep pvssyr about Fake Patch where it belong please, as I don't want to hijack Quarn's thread, you know?
You can install UF3P to a different folder on your desktop or whatever, unpack its .bsa, then install it manually or make it an FOMOD. I also prefer the manual installation method, but the installer version is foolproof, so it's not without its advantages.

Do you need to unpack the .bsa? Why?

Anyway, this is a must have for any FO3 gamer, won't ever forget what you did for Oblivion Quarn. And not FO3 either.

I just wanted to take a moment and thank Quarn for this unofficial patch. Modders like you are a big part of what keeps Beth games fresh even after months or even years of play. Your work in Oblivion still keeps me going back for more and I imagine FO3 will be the same.

Thanks!

Does anyone know if the bug that causes crashes when characters talk to you (must be a sound/audio related problem) has been fixed in the unofficial patch? These crashes started happening after I left the bunker (everything worked fine in the bunker), once I got to Megaton and started talking to the guys worshipping that bomb, the crashes started and now happen all the time when any character talks to me in the bar or anywhere in town (within a minute or so the game will freeze once a character starts speaking to me). Perhaps there's some codec I need to install so the Fallout 3 audio will work properly without crashing?

I still have the official 1.1 patch version installed that was released by Bethesda a few months ago, which did not fix the problem. Is it ok to update Fallout 3 to the latest official 1.4 patch from Bethesda before installing the v1.1.2 unofficial patch? I got the game for Christmas and still can't play it because of these crashes anytime characters speak to me, I'm still stuck in Megaton.

Thanks for making a patch to fix bugs Bethesda has not yet fixed!

Since my Fallout 3 has just updated to version 1.5 is it still ok to use this patch...?

It should be, but until later today (according to GStaff) we don't have the patch notes, so we really have no clue what it fixes, besides the vats bug.

The only VATS bug that it is confirmed to fix is the VATS perks. There are mixed reports on how well it fixes the calculation pause, and no anolysis has been done on if it fixes the weird hit percentages.

I've heard that the pause is shorter (but not 100% gone... not too big an issue) and that the weird hit percentages have been fixed. (Just what I've heard... honestly, I have no idea what that bug is...)

...ah thanks for that.
As I have just reinstalled my game I will just hang on a little while until I apply the unofficial patch just in case there could be any issues with what has been changed in the 1.5 update.
