| your kitten | Returning back to fallout 3 after a long break and you good knight broke my long night with a new dawn after hours of painstaking attempts to have it not crash immediately after starting a new game. PS. For step #4 on the first page the intel GPU bypass d3d9.dll can still report "Intel HD" and work but will instead change your default settings prompt from "Graphics set to high" to "Graphics set to medium" at least for me on windows 10 | 2023-05-19 00:47:27 |

| Samuxx11 | Really nice work with your guide.I can't make my game runs, and im bother about having to break my head doing stuff to get this game works.But, really good work for the community. | 2020-04-30 19:04:30 |
| maxhamee | Before I go to bed:I have found a way to utilize controllers that Steam will recognize, such as a Dualshock 4, or Logitech controller, but FOSE running mods will not. Add to steam a non-steam game/program, select Mod Organizer and run it through steam. MO will still run FOSE, but itll allow for steam overlay which prompts the in-game Fallout 3 controller enabler to recognize it as a 360 pad. Interesting that that is what is required, very simple step.Now you'll know, if someone asks on your guide in the future, you can reply with that as an option! :D | 2020-01-05 08:13:37 |
| maxhamee | Hey bud, if/when you're not busy, do you mind helping me address a controller issue in fallout 3? I left a comment in your guide since I noticed you still reply there as well. It's an enabling issue.I'd very much appreciate your help, thanks!Max | 2020-01-04 20:30:51 |

| Lord Pampeano | Hey i just send you a friend request,I just have a question about a guide you´ve done of fallout 3.Thanks for your time | 2019-10-16 22:33:11 |
| Killertruth186 | Ok. | 2019-09-06 15:39:25 |
| Killertruth186 | Can you make a comprehensible post to make fps go higher than 60fps on your pinned Ultimate Fallout 3 set up guide. So that way most people don't have to feel frustrated and have to do a lengthly search to see if it would work?That way it should reduce the unnecessary post complain about it. | 2019-09-05 13:56:47 |
| FULLBUSTER | only +rep if it were not for you, I would probably never have played folaut 3 you are incomparable | 2019-02-20 13:01:05 |
| Tersero18 | I just want thank yoiu very much, i was sad to read that it wasnt working after i bought the game but thanks You, it worked! thank you ery much! | 2019-01-08 20:58:13 |
| Eddie The Bastard | Thank you, that worked. | 2018-10-31 04:30:59 |
| Eddie The Bastard | I'm having an issue launching Fallout 3, and in your guide it says there should be 3 files found in "C:\users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Fallout 3". I've gone to "This PC\Documents\My Games\ Fallout3" (I assume this is the same thing), but there appears to only be one file document inside it, entitled "FalloutPrefs", and no files to speak of. Should I just delete this, or am I in the wrong place? | 2018-10-29 15:26:23 |

| [ITA]elmacigno88 | hello, I wanted to congratulate you on how to optimize fallout 3, and I wanted to thank you very much, I was wondering if in the future you will also do that for fallout new vegas, another chapter in the wonderful series =)again congratulations you've been great !! | 2018-05-09 04:06:21 |
| Heavy's Delightful Feet | You are a Steam Legend. | 2018-01-11 22:33:55 |
| Quoick | X3 is great but it has a pretty steep learning curve and won't be to everyone's tastes. It is a game that requires a lot of time to pass (you can often do some of this without being at the computron). I would start with X3 Albion Prelude first and then move onto Terran Conflict. AP is better balance and slightly better graphics but TC is the fuller game (AP is no slouch, it will still take you >100 hours to finish the missions but then the game is still not over). | 2017-12-03 12:47:21 |
| женя кубиков | Thanks a lot for the fallout guide!!!It really helped me to solve the problem .Much appreciated | 2017-10-15 11:13:40 |

| TheBreadTurtle | Same as Grey-man, been trying to figure out what the link is. Pressing "Play" on the launcher just seems to close the launcher, and nothing else happens. | 2017-05-20 13:22:03 |
| Grey-man | I've added you, I need to know what the link is in your fallout 3 setup guide. "IF CRASHING WHEN CLICKING "PLAY" in the fallout launcher, . Double click the download to run it." | 2017-05-20 06:55:26 |
| Princess Muu-Muu | Do you know any fixes for massive FPS drops / sky flickering around effects and certain animations? I tried the ini file, the microsoft update, and changing the compatibility. The game stopped crashing as much but it drops frames all the time when opening the pipboy. Windows 10... | 2017-05-15 20:30:46 |
| Sephiroth | I've searched for a long time and not really found the exact same issue, thank anyway, hopefully I get a response on the forum :) | 2017-04-23 21:47:22 |
| Sephiroth | It's not a crash, it's a console issue I was just wondering if you knew a fix, every command I've tried works except the Help command,ex, I can enter: help "scrap" 4and 0 results return, I've tried different items, with+without the "" marks, and with the value 0-4 at the end, it just doesn't return any results I can't figure out why, it shows the 4 sub menus with nothing in there.Some help results bring back matches from .ini files, but no in-game items show up, even on a fresh install of the game | 2017-04-23 21:30:35 |
| Sephiroth | When you can, please look at my Fallout 3 issue on the discussions page, and let me know if you have a fix, thanks | 2017-04-23 20:13:26 |

| Rivion | Hello, sir! I have read your guide about running Fallout 3 and I have one question concerning 7th step (adding d3d9x.dll to the game folder). You wrote: "This fix is only for people with intel HD graphics! If you have any ATI or Nvidia video card you shouldn't be using this!". I've got Intel HD plus NVidia GT740M, and only after adding d3d9x.dll the game stopped crashing. I have run the game for around half an hour so far and it worked fine but I am concerned about the line I quoted above. Can this .dll file do any harm in my case? | 2016-10-08 14:15:47 |

| animegirl377 | sorry, thank you though! | 2016-06-26 13:25:51 |
| animegirl377 | Thats the problem, I've been experiencing frequent freezes while exploring the springville elementry, and I wasn't sure if it was the location or my comupter, so I ended up seeking tech support out and had every issue I had been having over all with my computer resolved but it did nothing for the game - after that is when I found your guide and noticed one of your specifications was to NOT use autosave or to overwrite previous save data or that it caused freezes and crashes. If there a way to revert any potential damage caused by doing either of those 7 hours in to gameplay? I cant go more than a few minutes without it freezing at this point and its really frustrating trying to progress into the tunnel with it constantly turning off :( | 2016-06-26 13:12:20 |
| animegirl377 | hey :) I noticed you were the go to guy for Fallout 3 advice, I was wondering if you could assist me when you have a chance! It would be hugely appreciated <3 Thank you! | 2016-06-26 13:05:08 |

| masterwrench713 | hi there. id like to say that your guild has been very helpfull to me before sense ive been getting into the fallout series. but i have a delema, i first got the steam version of fallout 3 goty in march and used your guild to play it, and the game worked for a while then it wouldnt even start up. i was told that the anthology physical disc game would work better. so and i was told to reinstall the game thru steam before i bought it, so i did a few times and still wouldnt work, so bought anthology, i go to download it now, and it wont let me because of windows live, and i didnt even bother with that. im very confused and frustrated that this is happening and all i want to do is play the damn game. what do you suggest | 2015-09-29 20:48:39 |
| Balty | Hey BenWah, Thanks for your post ---> "ULTIMATE Fallout 3 Setup & Mod guide Windows 10, 8 & 7", it helped me a lot in understand and handling my problem. I wanted to send you a Private Message but don't know how to do it in here... I have an additional handling you could add to your post for Windows 10 users who are having troubles with FO3... I tried leaving a comment explaining it, but it is more than 1000 characters... so if you can MP me somehow I might be able to answer with the solution... Then you can decide to add it to your post or not. | 2015-08-30 13:58:17 |
| Ram Rancher #17 | hey can ye help me for a quick sec man? | 2015-08-28 04:55:41 |
| Kyrian | Okay, no worries! | 2015-08-23 11:49:30 |
| Kyrian | Hey man, someone suggested I talk to you about a Fallout 3 launch problem. I used your guide to install it initially when I had Windows 8, but when I updated to Windows 10 a couple days ago, it stopped working for some reason. Now it just launches a small black window that immediately closes again when I run it from the fose_launcher. I tried updating my Games for Windows Live and that didn't help. | 2015-08-22 19:45:24 |
| Zerius | Obama once told me that he was going to launch the nukes if I ever picked my nose again. On that day I took an oath to install the launch button in my nostril. That was 17 years ago this day. The temptation and stress has driven my body and mind to age an extra 38 years. Though I am only 23, I look 61 years old I haven't had a date since I was only 10. I've been an outcast, a hermit all these years. I've never felt so bad for my right hand. I remember the good times… the bad the ugly… Now I believe it is time to make my final choice. Pick my nose… or commit suicide. Either way I die, and no body wins. I guess picking my nose is also considered suicide. So does this mean that this is my suicide note? I guess so. Farewell. | 2015-08-21 05:59:59 |

| 메뚜기 | Fallout 3 seem's to be working again thanks for your help! | 2015-05-23 20:11:42 |
| BenWah | If you crash at the please wait slide, that is a missing master error. It means one of your mods is looking for another mod (or dlc) that is not there. Or you could have screwed up the font section when setting up "darnUI" | 2015-05-23 18:33:54 |
| 메뚜기 | Sorry if a wasted your time | 2015-05-23 17:53:25 |
| 메뚜기 | I'll just try uninstalling fallout 3 and reinstall it and following your guide again | 2015-05-23 17:47:37 |
| 메뚜기 | it crashes at the "please wait" slide i do have mods but i uninstalled all of them | 2015-05-23 17:39:00 |
| BenWah | Do you get lockups at the "please wait" slide? Did you install any mods | 2015-05-23 17:37:31 |
| 메뚜기 | I didn't do any thing after part one sorry about that | 2015-05-23 17:34:12 |
| BenWah | If you did everything in the guide then you ignored the warning in all capital letters at the end of step 1. | 2015-05-23 17:33:12 |
| 메뚜기 | Hello Benwah can you help me with fallout 3 goty i did everything from your guide and it still does not work when i hit play in the fallout launcher i get to the intro before the main menu pop's up and then it crashes any help would be appreciated. | 2015-05-23 17:30:17 |

| BenWah | I don't know anything about german version, hopefully you can get good info from other german user | 2015-01-18 11:50:54 |
| fallout3-newbie | Hello, I added you as a friend because i have a few questions concerning Fallout 3. I hope this is ok. My first problem is: I bought Fallout 3 GOTY by using a steam-code from the german amazon.de. Now I have a censored version and I would like to patch my game so that I can play the uncut-version. However, I didn't find any uncut-patch from a reliable source in the web - I'm kinda scared of possible malware. Therefore I'd like to know if you could help me with this.Thanks in advance, I'd really apreciate your help!Best regards,fallout3-newbie | 2015-01-18 10:47:34 |
| lift yer skinny fists | Thank you, BenWah. | 2014-12-27 20:38:18 |
| BenWah | If you're saying you can't even install your game I can't help with those problems. | 2014-12-27 20:36:20 |
| lift yer skinny fists | Mister Ben, please, help me. I install Fallout 3 GOTY. It installs Microsoft C++ redist, etc. and then it wants to install Net 3.1 framework but it crashes! Could this be the reason why my game doesnt run? (I can run the launcher just fine, but when I click play it crashes...). Please Mr. Ben, you're my last resort. | 2014-12-27 19:52:51 |
| supremedream14 | please add me and please help me with the problem i'm currently having with fallout 3 | 2014-12-23 20:28:08 |

| janfo | Ok.. no worries, thanks for answering even though you couldnt help | 2014-12-10 19:42:04 |
| BenWah | I am unable to help people with german version of fallout I don't have good information sorry | 2014-12-10 19:37:04 |
| janfo | ok, so the inofficial patch is not working at all with the german version? no matter if its 1.5 or 1.7? I may have to get the english version then from somewhere I guess... not really enjoyable when it crashes a lot. Do you know why Steam is not updating Fallout? | 2014-12-10 19:33:00 |
| BenWah | i can't help with german version of game because the version/upgrade system is different for it and i don't know what to do | 2014-12-10 18:53:17 |
| janfo | Hi, first of all thanks for the nice guide for Fallout 3. I have a problem though. I cant patch it to 1.7 it only patches it to 1.5 even with the 1.7 installer. Really wanted to patch cause its crashing often when entering a new room. Your inofficial patch wont work with old versions of the game.. Can you maybe help? Thank you! | 2014-12-10 16:15:25 |

| BunnyehBut | hey i was wondering if you could help me with my fallout 3 im on windows 8 and i cant seem to find a fix for it but my radio keeps stuttering and speed up not to mention the waves are way off its kind of annoying considering i listen to the GNR radio consistently while walking the waste so i think you could see how its annoying | 2014-11-05 00:48:05 |
| BenWah | i have about an hour right now but after that i'll be gone long time | 2014-11-01 21:15:45 |
| elan | BenWah, Can you come help me with fallout? The guide is a bit misleading on my part, and I don't understand it | 2014-11-01 21:14:23 |
| zallo03 | Seen you got banned. Hope its not permanent. If they didn't give you forewarning for breaking rules, you should be able to appeal it. Heck, with what you 'did' you probably shouldn't be banned to begin with. I don't know how deleting your own discussions breaks site rules but it sounds like bs to me. | 2014-09-09 19:35:32 |
| Salt The Wound! | +Rep | 2014-08-23 09:42:39 |
| BenWah | that's fixed with step 4. | 2014-08-20 14:40:17 |
| Hmmmm Nice Bike ツ | Hi, I need to ask, after doing step one of your guide for Fallout 3 GOTY edition on Steam the game works, but now when at the moment in the game when you are opening the vault to leave the game freezes/crashes. I'm gonna do step two now and download the GFWL dissabler but when going to the site you link i'm not sure what to download. You said to download it manually but when clicking on "download manually it takes me to a list of premium servers and normal servers. Where do I download the disabler from? I'd really appreciate the help. | 2014-08-20 13:54:12 |
| BenWah | sure thing have fun! Glad to help our elders. :) | 2014-08-20 04:11:25 |
| JAG__128 | Hi Ben, well lastnight I gave it another good going at, and I don't know what I hit but a load of writing come up including the stuff that you gave me to look for. So I put fix 4 in, and this proves I know nothing it come up and said Fallout.ini allready exsits do you want to replace that with this so I clkd yes. Now it's working like a dream I'm in megaton with house add on quests loaded in fine , and just started the book guied. I never did workout how to get fallout3 to open in notepad lol BIG THX :-) | 2014-08-20 04:06:31 |

| NowWeClutch | Hi , i need some help. that's why I added you. Tks | 2014-07-23 00:36:32 |
| reillyman12 | For some reason, idk why, i decided to try and play it again and it worked! I now have my very own pip-boy! whatever it did, it worked. thanks! | 2014-07-21 17:04:29 |
| BenWah | There's something special about your computer setup that is producing that very unsual problem. I don't know anything. | 2014-07-21 16:49:39 |
| reillyman12 | ok so It still does not work. is there a way where I can reset the files and redo the fixing process by following the guide and your comments? | 2014-07-21 15:19:52 |
| BenWah | Please try running the vcredist program in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 3 goty\VCRedist | 2014-07-20 18:12:50 |
| BenWah | It's very unusual, when I look it up on google it seems to suggest your visual C install is borked.I can't pretend to know this area of problem. | 2014-07-20 17:30:34 |
| reillyman12 | i reinstalled the game and that didn't work, the same message appears. I am at a loss here. | 2014-07-20 16:37:57 |
| BenWah | Did you somehow mess around with visual C install? Maybe you went into the list of your installed programs, and you said to yourself, "hey why are there so many visual C things in the list! I'll just nuke a bunch". You can run vcredist in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 3 goty\VCRedistor just reinstall the game if that's too annoying | 2014-07-20 15:52:15 |
| reillyman12 | i also do have intergrated intel HD | 2014-07-20 15:46:50 |
| reillyman12 | now I did that, and it didn't do the same thing as the last one, but this time, i clicked play, and then a thing came up and said "pure virtual function call". Do you know why that is? | 2014-07-20 15:46:00 |
| BenWah | Did you use the d3d9.dll linked in my guide, or a different one? Try redownload it. Remember, the d3d9.dll file is only for those with Intel HD graphics. If you have any Nvidia or ATI display adapter you should not use it. | 2014-07-20 15:20:44 |
| reillyman12 | I did the thing for when you click "new game", the d3d9.dll file, when i put that in the folder and run, the launcher crashes! idk what to do. | 2014-07-20 15:13:20 |
| BenWah | haha that's great. It's a constant war against misinformation, cause some of the popular guides out there are pretty bad. Some are so bad you can't recover by uninstalling, you have to delete the 3 files in C:\users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Fallout3 | 2014-07-20 14:31:56 |
| Soulkius | +rep Couldn't play Fallout 3 at first. Tried looking at other guides but didn't help at all. Then i decided to go to the Fallout 3 steam discussions and chanced upon your post, followed all the steps and I could ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ play the game without it crashing! Thank you dude, I love you! | 2014-07-20 09:09:14 |
| Telisus | thank you soooooooooo much i hope you know how much that helped and how simple it was to do thank you again ps it worked first time after the step :D | 2014-07-20 00:07:38 |
| Bop Cahones | I didn't even get past step one I deleted everything I deleted my game files and I even put it in windowed mode and I press play it opens and then it crashes what can I do to fix it | 2014-07-19 20:19:15 |

| BenWah | they ripped out the gfwl key from fallout 3. but if you can log in using other games you have installed, maybe it would work. I personally always disable gfwl as soon as I can so I don't know much. | 2014-07-07 13:55:44 |
| akatsuki_seven | hey benwah i saw your posts on fallout 3 forums. i was wondering if at this date would i be able to purchase a copy through steam or the windows pc disc and play through the game and get the 1550 gamerscore for gfwl? I already have gfwl installed due to dark souls so my account is linked already. Thank you | 2014-07-07 12:37:12 |
| BenWah | That's the missing master error shown in the troubleshooting section. One of your mods is looking for another mod that isn't there. Did you install blackened? Did you install the right one? You can post your load order here and the problem will probably be obvious. | 2014-07-06 15:13:22 |
| Red Pursuit | on start up* not stop sorry. | 2014-07-06 13:54:12 |
| Red Pursuit | Could you offer me some more advice on Fallout 3 modding since you seem to be an expert. I am still planning on looking through your guide, I found some of it useful so far but I was wondering if you could tell me why this isn't working correctly.I'm trying to get these mods to workFWE (Fallout wanderers edition)Marts mutant modEnergry weapons enhancedbut when I get those up, the game crashes to desktop on stop. The game seemsto run smoothly without Energy weapons enhanced. Is that mod not compatible with the others? or am I installing them wrongly (I use Nexus mod manager.)I install them as listed above with FWE being first, then MMM, and EWE. | 2014-07-06 13:53:20 |
| BenWah | The exact fix for your problem is step 1. | 2014-07-05 19:13:51 |
| stompingpeter | Hey BenWah I was wondering if you new what was wrong with my fallout 3 for staem. when I start up the game and press play game nothing plays am I missing something. windows 8 readon hd 6570 8gb ddr3 i7. I did just resently wiped my computer. | 2014-07-05 18:29:34 |
| Primental | Ahh, yep, that's why. I was looking at the forum version. | 2014-07-04 02:42:58 |
| BenWah | oh I guess it's only in the guide version, not the forum one. I'll fix that. | 2014-07-04 02:38:22 |
| BenWah | It's already there in section 2, step 1." It's possible to keep steam overlay by renaming falloutlauncher.exe to something else, then renaming fose_loader.exe to falloutlauncher.exe. Launch fallout 3 via steam library." | 2014-07-04 02:36:07 |
| Primental | Your guide only seems to mention installing fose and using fose_loader.exe to launch the game. It doesn't mention setting up fose with Steam so that Steam will continue to track your game hours, etc. | 2014-07-04 02:33:19 |
| BenWah | That's already in my guide in section 2, step 1.I'm guessing you didn't realize my guide had more than one section? There are 5! | 2014-07-04 02:21:15 |
| BenWah | I won't make a new vegas guide, I just like fallout 3. :) I thought I was going to end up adding a bunch more mods to my recommended list, but I found reasons to exclude all the candidates so far. I think I will add one line about DC moods and if the author of imperfection finishes a merger I'll add that too. | 2014-07-02 22:57:09 |
| egghead! | Hey man, amazing fallout 3 guide! I just came from being a console peasant to using pc fulltime for gaming, and I used your guide in conjunction with Gopher's to make fallout a completely new game. I was also wondering if you are planning on making a fallout new vegas guide *not trying to be pushy, I feel that Gopher changes his mind on mods too much and I want to see your opinion on good mods* Again thanks for helping all of us with your guide and support. | 2014-07-02 15:21:11 |
| d:P | Thanks for the guid with Fallout 3 <3 | 2014-06-26 17:15:38 |
| Master_GEEB | BENWAH is AWESOME! Thanks for helping me with FALLOUT 3...One of the BEST games of all time! | 2014-06-26 11:11:50 |
| mason | Buy them all and play them in this orderArkham Origins, Arkham Asylum and Arkham City.You will spent $15 for more than 60 hours of fun. Arkham Series are amongst my top video games ever.Cold Cold Heart is worth buying as it is a 2 hours story DLC. Initiation is bunch of challenge maps that isn't worth it imo... You can spent the $5 to buy Arkham Origins Blackgate instead. | 2014-06-26 01:57:10 |

| jobert | hey hey! really am wowed by your generosity in helping people. Really rare to find people like you. Anyway, is it ok to add you as a friend? thanks! | 2014-06-25 04:06:26 |
| Larqden | Sorry, I see a lot of people are her for the same reason, but I was wondering if you could help me with my Fallout 3 crashing after i select a new game? I'm also using windows 7. I've already followed your guide with no luck. I'd really appreciate some help and I'll happily throw in some TF2 items if you can help. | 2014-06-24 16:54:32 |
| BenWah | he installed d3d9.dll to the wrong place | 2014-06-24 15:17:21 |
| SolomonKain | Hey, sorry to bother you but I recently downloaded fallout 3 and it wont work. I have tried all of your steps but it still wont work :(. I open the game, click play, click new game and then it crashes. I'm using windows 8.1 | 2014-06-24 15:05:54 |
| Hussein In The Membrane | Hey man, I see you know your way around Fallout 3 issues. Can you add me so you can help me with this problem I'm having. I read your guide but it didn't help or maybe I just didn't do it right since I'm not all that good with downloading things | 2014-06-24 11:49:11 |
| BenWah | Bad idea to use loot, it doesn't work well yet. Maybe someday... | 2014-06-17 19:14:16 |
| Wildcard | Hey Ben. Checked back with your amazing FO3 guide recently and might aswell drop a note. I've been using LOOT lately, rather than BOSS, and the experience has been going good so far. According to the team, they'll be working on that more often than BOSS and maybe you'd consider updating your guide with this. http://loot.github.io/ | 2014-06-17 16:21:56 |
| Rick | FO3 Setup guide helps hugely for Windows 8.1 users with integrated graphic cards. Thanks tons mate! | 2014-06-03 06:51:31 |

| OldMemes.biz | +rep to you my friend, your FO3 guide is superb. First rate. Keep doing what you do. | 2014-05-21 00:25:24 |

| minato13 | woops, accidentally pressed post before i was done writing. so im running windows 8.1, i7 quad core. can u help me? | 2014-05-19 09:12:55 |
| minato13 | Hey Ben,im coming to you as sort of a last resort. bought fallout 3 goty edition and the first 40 or so minutes went just okay, but now it keeps locking up every 5 mins. the audio and animations still continue it just ignores all the input (cant move, click, press escape, etc.). ive tried ur guide to fixing this stuff, even downloaded the d3d9.dll but it still locks up. | 2014-05-19 09:11:08 |
| BenWah | I am happy to help. Please send hamachi sushi | 2014-05-10 23:03:44 |
| Wildcard | Thanks for your amazing guide, Ben. It helped me a lot in setting up my Fallout properly. :) | 2014-05-10 19:51:21 |
| stompingpeter | Thank you so much that helped me out all of my dlc packs were downloaded BenWah :) | 2014-05-10 18:41:43 |
| BenWah | in the fallout launcher click data and verify dlc have checkmark next to them. Radios might take a little bit to activate. If FWE is installed they only activate when in a certain range. | 2014-05-10 18:28:58 |
| stompingpeter | hey ben wah so ive purchased the fallout 3 game of the year edition and the game dosent display any of the dlc packs. usually after you escape the vault you get a response on your pip-boy about the dlc packs. also ive tried rienstalling the game with nothing changed in game. | 2014-05-10 18:21:46 |
| johnirvinebo | Hi, Ben, just dropping by to say I solved my issues. And, yes, the answer was in your guide (hey, if you don't know what the problem is, you don't know lol).Only in rare cases (badly modded prior installs and bad guides) might it be necessary to delete the 3 files found in C:\users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Fallout 3(don't delete Saves folder)I deleted those files, the vanilla worked; I added the mods I wanted, they worked first time. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into the guide and your patience with my case in particular. It really is greatly appreciated. | 2014-05-09 18:51:57 |
| TF2 player | Your FO3 Guide has gotten me closer to it working than any other guide +rep | 2014-04-30 20:34:50 |
| johnirvinebo | Hi, Ben, still struggling with FO3. Have added you. No doubt you'll take one look at my load order/plugin order and spot the problem, but right now I'm stumped. | 2014-04-25 03:43:38 |

| BeXy | I NEED HELP | 2014-04-03 19:46:29 |
| BenWah | I'll help you send me a message , i can tell which fix you need based on where you crash exactly. After play, step 1. after new game, step 4, etc.. | 2014-03-31 13:15:30 |
| spartanclass15 | ok so do i need to reenable it or what now? | 2014-03-31 13:15:19 |
| BenWah | You never need to log in to windows live to play fallout 3. You can just push escape when asked. Then use the fallout 3 gfwl disabler or fose to disable/bypass it. | 2014-03-31 13:14:30 |
| spartanclass15 | I launched it right after i installed it, it crashed, i screwed around with files and compatibility mode (which usually fixes my problems) it crashed, I tried your guide, my thing crashed it wont stop crashing it really is pissing me off! | 2014-03-31 13:13:49 |
| spartanclass15 | I went offline and the windows live kept asking me to sign in i turned my laptop to airplane mode | 2014-03-31 13:11:37 |
| BenWah | You did that after successfully clicking play right? If you cut out windows live before clicking play successfully once, you screw up your install. That's why I have a big warning after step 1 that says something like STOP, DO NOT PROCEED WITH REST OF GUIDE UNTIL YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CLICKED PLAY. Also there is no fallout.ini until you click play so you can't do step 4 properly, etc.. | 2014-03-31 13:09:04 |
| spartanclass15 | should i be running it as administrator? and do i need to allow special permissions to it? | 2014-03-31 13:07:56 |
| spartanclass15 | I cut the windows live out with step 3(?) | 2014-03-31 13:05:36 |
| BenWah | Are you talking about setting it to compatibility mode for windows 7 or vista, XP, etc?? I've helped so many people and not for one of them did a compatibility mode make the difference. Maybe my advice is wrong, but I never tell people to use those compatibility modes. Other guides do.Most windows 8 users need step 1 in this guide, which is updating windows live. You should also do step 4. | 2014-03-31 12:52:43 |
| spartanclass15 | For fallout 3 with windows 8 do i need to turn on the compatibility mode? | 2014-03-31 12:43:11 |
| Mr. Bombastic | actually, ignore that question, just read some of the comments. | 2014-03-15 19:35:53 |
| Mr. Bombastic | Does your guide for fallout 3 also apply to windows 8.1? | 2014-03-15 19:35:08 |
| BenWah | Go to C:|users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Fallout 3 and delete all 3 files, fallout.ini falloutprefs.ini and renderinfo.txt restart fallout and quit, then edit fallout.ini so it only has step 4 fix from my guide. | 2014-03-08 02:48:06 |
| Dontfearthejoshjosh | I could use help getting my fallout 3 from crashing.It crashes at the end of V.A.T.S kills.I used the Windows Game Live updater thing, which allowed me to play the game past the launcher.I managed to turn off the mouse acceleration.My game was freezing my entire computer and I used these; which managed to take me a LITTLE further- still freezes pretty quick (within 5 mins or VATS kills):bUseThreadedAI=1iNumHWThreads=1I tried the BuseAI at 2 and 1- there was some other one that I was instructed to delete or set to zero.I deleted something under [Controls] I can't remember what anymore.I'm running Windows 8 and have a Nvidia 660ti.Can you help me stop the game crashes? | 2014-03-08 01:11:47 |
| cornbread | Ben, the install fails every time I try to update the "Windows Live" thing. | 2014-02-28 14:40:13 |
| BenWah | yes, that's what i use | 2014-02-16 22:15:20 |
| AssaultClips | Does your Fallout 3 start up and mod guide work with Windows 8.1? | 2014-02-16 18:33:27 |
| Karlore | Same. i have tried everything on the guide. and still nothing. still crashes when i hit new game. | 2014-02-15 14:06:38 |
| all in | 100 | 2014-02-09 06:18:03 |
| BenWah | That's fixed with step 1 in the guide. You can add me if you're stuck. | 2014-02-06 18:03:48 |
| Morgan | Hello Ben,ive been following your guide to fixing Fallout 3 GOTY but it still does not work, When ever i click play it crashes and i have to restart my computer. | 2014-02-06 15:16:47 |
| [AOD]Suicide-Squirel | Hey its me again, been having a hell of a time getting the game working. followed all tips for crashes, but it will still crash abot 5 or so minutes into game play. used blackened, used boss, used fo3edit, made the merge patch. edit that ini, still crashes. tried running in compatability mode, made the screen yellow every time i bought up the pip-boy. I don't play that often so i didn't catch it sooner, been trying to finish off another game before i get sucked into this. anything else you could think of before I start disabling/deleting mods? | 2014-02-04 07:59:30 |
| SirSleepzAlot | thanks Ben for helping me with the FO3 crashes on the launcher. ! the 1st step fixed my problem lol xD | 2014-01-31 06:58:40 |
| seanarmstrong89 | hey BenWah, I just got on steam and the second game I bought was fallout 3. I'm having a heluva time getting it to work. I used the steps until downloading the mod. I'm having trouble still. Is there anyway you can help me fix it? | 2014-01-25 16:22:27 |
| [AOD]Suicide-Squirel | Also thank you for posting the guide, very helpful. And I don't have to go downloading random mods that may/may not work with each other. If I had known some of this with skyrim, I might be able to walk in my house without it crashing to desktop lol | 2014-01-21 08:46:27 |
| [AOD]Suicide-Squirel | I did that and it runs a lot smoother than FOMM. Re-downloaded FOMM as well, works a little better, but still freezes up then crashes time to time. With that said, ramming your head into a wall enough, you eventually get a hole. | 2014-01-21 08:44:04 |
| BenWah | i admit i don't know why fomm would crash like that. You can try NMM. You don't need either unless you want mods. | 2014-01-21 08:33:06 |
| [AOD]Suicide-Squirel | I was using Fomm like you recommended, but it kept crashing everytime I opened the package manager. Ran it as Admin like you said. I deleted the game, mods and Fomm and am starting over. Any tips to get everything going smooth this time? | 2014-01-21 01:47:45 |

| ♈Addy♈ | +Rep top guy :) | 2013-11-22 02:53:10 |
| BenWah | It has the information on the saves there in the troubleshooting section. I totally disagree that the new vegas 4gb patch is more efficient, so i won't make that change. The mouse acceleration fix is done by the unofficial patch automatically. I have the fake fullscreen info already in troubleshooting section. | 2013-11-18 06:15:08 |
| supersniper | Hey Ben, saw your Fallout 3 guide, it needs a little updating. such as letting people know to move their saves when disabling LIVE, and a more efficient way for enabling 4GB (using the 4GB enabler for new vegas). Also there's a beta version of BOSS and NMM has recently updated as well (still in beta). Also you could add in the mouse acceleration fix (ini tweaks) as well as a section about GameCompanion (a tool on nexusmods that lets fallout 3 run in fake full screen mode as well as fixes many inconsistences with alt tabing and alt f4ing | 2013-11-18 01:46:58 |
