Fallout Series Thread V14: When i entered this thread i was hoping there would be more gambling - Games

[QUOTE=G-Strogg;43243696]The Steam page for Fo3 says that it's "not optimized for windows 7" what the hell does that mean?[/QUOTE] That it came out before Windows 7 was sort of a thing, and that it wasn't designed with Windows 7's background programs in mind?

[QUOTE=G-Strogg;43243696]The Steam page for Fo3 says that it's "not optimized for windows 7" what the hell does that mean?[/QUOTE] It means it will probably works less in Windows 7 like more crashes and that stuff, but as usual there is some fix by the community to help... I think.

My old disk version of Fo3 just keeps crashing on my computer, so I'm gonna pick it up when it goes on full sale. [editline]20th December 2013[/editline] Along with New Vegas. I hope Obsidian makes Fo4 as well and that it's on a new engine.

[QUOTE=G-Strogg;43243696]The Steam page for Fo3 says that it's "not optimized for windows 7" what the hell does that mean?[/QUOTE] That's their way of covering themselves if something goes wrong when the game is on 7. It was designed when we were all stuck with Vista and there was no guarantee it would even function with 7. That said there are no extra problems running the game on 7 AFAIK.

[QUOTE=Killdozer;43242829]That's odd, I put my INT to 1 in NV but so far all my dialogue options are normal (other than that one time where i was able to talk to some dude's rat, but I think that's normal).[/QUOTE] Unfortunately the 1 int dialogue in NV isn't as extensive as the first Fallouts.

i created a melee/unarmed character because i was bored as shit with guns and i am just taking everything to put a giant pile of junk in a house hundreds of cans, books, and bottles [editline]19th December 2013[/editline] i just had an epiphany someone needs to make a "butcher pete character" that has science, melee, and survival skills [sp]get it? "he's HACKING wacking etc" i'm not funny [/sp]

Anyone know how to export custom clothes for Fallout 3 or NV? I'm trying to make some clothes in Blender but the thing is most tutorials aren't that clear. I'm more or less trying to port armors from other games.

[QUOTE=R-money;43243586]Yeah Fresh installs, it just kinda sits there and does nothing[/QUOTE] It takes awhile and it doesn't really look like it's doing anything. If you've tried waiting a few hours, try running as administrator.

Just got done going through Vault 22 in NV. I feel like they could have made that vault so much better than it currently is. Like make it fairly large and open with more types of creatures inhabiting it. Could you imagine an underground jungle in one of the vaults? I think that would have been great.

I can't even get FO3 to run on 7. It crashes soon after I start a new game.

[editline]19th December 2013[/editline] Plus sideway running animations.

Isn't the Creation engine just Gamebryo with more makeup?

Any tips for an Energy weapons character in FO3?

[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;43246687]Isn't the Creation engine just Gamebryo with more makeup?[/QUOTE] Its based on Gamebryo but it has been heavily rewritten. Still has a lot of the old Gamebryo problems.

[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;43246687]Isn't the Creation engine just Gamebryo with more makeup?[/QUOTE] Pretty much, but at the same time not. I'm just saying because it's allowed for better quality graphics and such. Mostly the same but not at the same time. I mean I'm sure if NV was ENTIRELY recreated on Creation engine with the better graphics and what ever you'd have amazing battles,fuck man if you let the Legion wear the Imperial legion's armor it'd still fit.

[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;43246750]Any tips for an Energy weapons character in FO3?[/QUOTE] Scratch what I said, the save system is causing FO3 to crash alot again. Oh well, guess I prefer Fallout NV anyway.

I'm tempted to get FO3 for my laptop. It's a piece of shit (the laptop) but I really want to mess around with mods and I can't do that on my xbox, unfortunately. Hm. How much is it right now, anyway?

[QUOTE=doomevil;43247609]GOTY is for $10 if you want to go get it with the Steam Christmas Sale going on.[/QUOTE] Done and done. I need mods for content, not MY GRAPHIX Any suggestions?

Guess what? The DLC for Fallout 3 is 60 dollars on play station network but on steam you can just buy the GOTY edition for 10 dollars. Looks like I'm buying Fallout 3 again

[QUOTE=sambopukka;43237933]Could anyone recommend me mods for fallout 2 for a smooth experience?[/QUOTE] Nobody?

[QUOTE=a-cookie;43248762]Nobody?[/QUOTE] Get the ones listed on the OP [url=http://www.gog.com/forum/fallout_series/fallout_2_mods/page1]over here[/url] (The first 4), you can find working links along the rest of the thread if they're broken.

Currently installing FOOK Convergence and all the things that belong to it. Right now the only thing missing is WMXUE. I can't find it for my life. I have downloaded Weapon Mod Expansion and all the patches, but WMXUE.esp is nowhere to be found. What am I missing exactly? And where can I find it? Been following the installing notes to the letter.

because it's WMXUE not WMEUE, it's in the miscellaneous section of the WMX downloads

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;43249041]because it's WMXUE not WMEUE, it's in the miscellaneous section of the WMX downloads[/QUOTE] Dammit. You got me. Now I feel stupid... But thanks a lot!

[QUOTE=R-money;43243586]Yeah Fresh installs, it just kinda sits there and does nothing[/QUOTE] It likes to take its sweet time, just let it do its thing Also, did you run it as administrator?

Well since my new start of NV no mods or anything. I'm pretty much going against the NCR. I've killed quite a few of them but my game play so far has been nothing but stealth. I already had a few rangers come up to me and tell me that if I don't change my ways there going to bludgeon me to death and feed my body to there dogs. Well I killed them with some C4 I bought from a passing trader, and took there shit. I was against them fully but now I'm neutral when I wear there NCR Ranger out fit lol.
