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

Help me.
I want to play Fallout 3. It is a good game, that i have previously enjoyed many times on the PS3. I acquired it on the PC from Steam. I initially put some mods on it, and it was working fine, mostly just some weapon mods and UCO.
I got into downtown DC and the game repeatedly kept freezing without warning. The game would just stop. I uninstalled mod after mod, toyed with graphical settings, audio settings, gameplay settings, eventually removing all mods. I tried restricting the game to so many cores, from 4, to 2, to 1.
I restarted my computer, deleted and reinstalled the game, set it to the lowest possible graphical settings. Nothing has worked. My character is now trapped in a fancy restaurant downtown, and looking at the door freezes the game, going past the lobby freezes the game. Firing a weapon freezes the game. Opening and then closing the pip-boy freezes the game.
I tried going back to a recent save but the game freezes still, especially when i enter a building, but occasionally outside as well.
There has to be some solution. Somebody please help.
My computer is not shitty either. The game, when it runs, runs with 60+ FPS on full ultra settings. On Planetside 2, a game a lot of people have issues with, i get 45+ on high settings. I can play a heavily modded New Vegas perfectly fine, at the same 60+ FPS on ultra. There has to be something i'm missing here.
Look up the quad core fix for Win7

I'll try it again, but i did try it before. I hope it works this time because i'm desperate at this point. I just wanna fucking play FO3.

I mean, 4 cores is only half of my processing power. I have a octo-core i7.

why isn't that in the op? it should be a default in every fallout thread.
Tried it again, both 2 and 1 core. Still freezes. Going to attempt to disable hyperthreading in my BIOS.

Apparently that's not even an option in my BIOS. any other suggestions?

I think it's supposed to be that basic skills that underlie charisma, like empathy or picking up sensory cues, become so totally nonfunctional that you essentially lose sentience.

I think the body just ragequits due to its host.
Is there a mod that fixes the meshes in the lucky 38 penthouse so you can actually take the pre-war books off the shelves?
Just played some Fallout 3 yesterday. I think the whole 'pick stuff up with z' thing would be so much more fun if glass and porcelain shattered when you threw it against something.
Imagine breaking into a pre-war home and wrecking all their good china. Or throwing a grenade in Dukov's place.

or picking up a sheet of metal/wood to use as a shield as you fire from behind it with a one-handed weapon
Actually now i mention it, it's a shame there is no... "COD style click Rstick to knife" system because the amount of times enemies have just straight up bum-rushed me especially geckos and ghouls
Some way of defending against close up enemies without having to pause time and equip a weapon would be great
In fact what would be perfect would be a [B]kick[/B] function
enemy too close? use all your god given limbs to fight the fucker off, kick him down and put two in his head
flimsy door locked? kick it open (success based on strength and repair)
pre war machine not working correctly? give it a swift kick IT ALWAYS WORKED IN THE MOVIES AFTER ALL! (success based on strength repair and luck)
legs crippled? say goodbye to kicking
anyone know where i can find this mod

You'd need the name and author to find it on another site, if it's taken off nexus it's [B]NEVER[/B] coming back

You bring all this up, and I totally agree and want someone to make it a mod now. Have the kick damage be determined by strength and unarmed ability, the shield be based on agility and guns.
It couldn't be that hard in Gamebryo... Right...
Right...?

I imagine Gamebryo would make it difficult to switch weapons that fast. Maybe you could press a key, and that causes your leg to appear. The leg is very massive and is spawned with lots of velocity, much like that trap in vanilla where a piece of meat is hanging from a chain. For a little while you flail your leg at your enemies around like a dangling hunk of rotting beef.

Damn communist reds are messing up our data folders with pointless ESP's
I was almost expecting the skeleton to start spazzing out to the tune of a spooky scary skeletons remix.
Just finished Fallout 1 again and got the good ending, i didn't remember much so I expected the [sp]overseer to kill me as a pre-caution[/sp]
Have an amazing death animation.

You know what would be swell? One handed sawed off grenade rifle mod.

Tactics had a 40mm grenade pistol. It's not a sawn-off grenade rifle but it's almost there.
What I think would be nice is a 25mm grenade pistol. Lonesome Road has some reload animations for the Flare Gun that could work.

I like to think that he was wearing some weird fucking bandolier made of hand grenades and that shot somehow activated them all in sequence.

There's an alternative (and even better) headbob mod though, called [url=http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/55334/?]Enhanced Camera.[/url]
I know you guys only play TTW now, but damn am I having a blast playing Fallout 3 with FWE installed and other mods. I'm satisfied with my custom ENB too.

Don't ask me for the ENB though, last time didn't end up well.
