Just played for a couple of hours and all I can say is good job, man. This is a great list. I don't think I've played a smoother incarnation of Fallout 3 than this. I decompressed the BSA's and did the heap replacer too, though. I wonder how much of a difference the DXVK stuff makes as well. Everything is super smooth.
I've tried to come back to Fallout 3 a couple of times over the last 4 or 5 years and it has been damn near unplayable on a modern computer. So thanks again.
Hey so I finished the main quest whenever the ending cutscene plays right after the picture of the lone wanderer and his father it crashes and doesn’t allow me to keep playing. please help
hello! Sorry this is long and English isn't great! Ive tried installing 3 times now to no avail. I follow instructions to the T but I must must be screwing it around. I try and start the launcher and the mo2 says exe isnt to be found. I say okay and add my own exe like you say, all this does on trying to start is mo2 freezes for a second then nothing. When I try and launch game thru mo2 it freezes and locks up, opens window of game for not even a full second and then closes. Everything updated, decompressed files did the patcher and multiple fresh installs. Even with all mods in mo2 disabled nothing works. But when I just launch from steam It works!! ARGGGH!!
I'm not entirely sure since I own the GOG version of the game but according to the stickied post on the Anniversary patcher page, it might be caused by creating an MO2 instance before generating INI files. I think in this case it's Wabbajack installing my portable MO2 instance with everything already configured, which could cause the same issue. You could try copying over Fallout.ini and FalloutPrefs.ini from Documents\My Games\Fallout3 to the MO2 profile folder (click the folder icon at the top of MO2 and select Open Profile folder).
It's not an optimal solution since the INI files have a couple changes made to them. But fortunately they're not that important, they just make the HUD light green like in the screenshots and rebind the walk key to R-Shift. Anyways, I generated some fresh INI files and copied them over to the MO2 profile folders which hopefully will fix the issue in the next update.
Heya Poke! so when starting a new game and creating my character and doing the special points i only have 5 in everything and no extra points is that normal for this list?
Installation fails from Vanilla UI Plus, the error Wabbajack gives says it's unable to download from the mirror. I'm assuming the mirror link is down, but it won't install anything because it can't download that one file.
forgot to change the direct download link in the readme, i've just replaced it with a link to the releases page so i don't have to update the readme every time i update the list
