You sound like a synth.

Fuck Lyons, Maxon for life.

If you have New Vegas, try Tale of Two Wastelands. It made 3 work for me since it's technically New Vegas running.

And if you don't have new Vegas....just why? What are you waiting for?

Kidding aside, tales of 2 wastelands is what allowed me to finally replay FO3 after more than a decade. The downside is that by the time you get to NV you can pretty much march straight to the legion and murder everyone

Yeah, I am a Wasteland God by the time I get out west. I don't bring any of the weapons or armor with me though (ammo excluded since it's so abundant in 3 with the press). I also figure it's more realistic for a courier to get "killed" in normal wear as opposed to perfect condition winterized power armor....now I'm imagining Benny just bouncing bullets off you as you slowly walk up to him, face obscured by the helmet.

I got the GOG version of both and they work fine for me.

Fallout 3 was broken until about a year ago on modern machines then Bethesda randomly pushed out a patch completely removing the Windows Live integration that was breaking it. Since then, a lot more people can run it but it is still pretty hit and miss.

Generally speaking though TTW is considered the most stable way to play Fallout 3 on modern PCs.

Hey, I can help. I guess you have Win10, and the game crashes? Whatever it is, you can send me a DM, I probably can help you with F3.

I have windows 7. And the game won’t even start.

New Vegas does though.

Run the fallout3.exe as an administrator + in compatibility mode with Windows XP SP2

I feel like that’s something I’ve tried in the past but didn’t work, I’m saving the comment for the next time I boot up my computer though. Thank you.
