Fallout 3 Thread

My gun did a whole lotta talking in both games :laugh: not sure what you mean tho.

I guess was just the walking distances to talk to people.(or at least in the first parts of games thats what was only going on)
 
It's like oblivion but the world is a bit smaller and places and points of interests are easy to come across too, although you still need to be alert for somethings to find some special/rare items. The game can run fine with you, there was a separate thread that made it run better thru ini tweaking. Like oblivion, and there is also some texture packs which improve the overall texture of some materials in the game, which was stated in this post by newcoroer, IIRC.

BTW for those who are irritated by the 3rd person cam obstruction from armors I found this mod here, thanks to the author from fallout3 nexus named Saiden Storm :D, btw I renamed the file name to zip, it was 7z but was invalid for attachment, so after dloading pls rename to 7z. :D hope you find this useful as I did
 

Attachments

as a friend says, fallout 3 = oblivion with guns, oblivion = fallout 3 with swords, fallout 2 = baldurs gate with guns. if you like one parte of the formula, then you will play the other
 
Well I made it to Rivet City last night. I went out on the 3rd level deck and this girl appeared from the "railroad" bitching at me about this damn robot guy. Anyway I was real nice to her and she gave me a part to give to some doctor. When I went back into the ship everybody and their mom was shooting at me. My Karma is really good and I didn't steal a damn thing. Is this a glitch?
 
Sounds like a glitch to me.
I was give the android part in Grayditch.
Still haven't seen the android.
 
I found the lady on the boat, she gave me the part, I talked to the lady in the stateroom upstairs, she said please leave him alone, I gave the part to the idiot downstairs, all done.
 
hopeing this helps... i was having alot of crashing problems, the graphics would get messed up and then it would blue screen with the graphics still messed up [but you could tell it was a BSOD because of all the blue background and white bits] it was random, and my gpu wasnt overheating... i droped the clock rate on my video memory from 1ghz to 900mhz [prolly didnt need to be so drastic about it but i have alot of memory bandwidth so it dosnt hurt bad], ive put it through its paces and its 100% stable now, I've put about 50 hours into it and i havnt had a single crash, it seems like something i would have just wrong with my video memory but... I've noticed alot of the exact same symptoms that other people were having, like with the squares and stuff that ppl post screenshots on other boards, and also it would be more stable in windowed mode [due imho to the lower 2d clocks of windowed mode]

as a side note to anyone with a 2900xt, im having really good results with the 2d clocks set to 200mhz gpu 300mhz video memory, and the 3d clocks at 750mhz gpu and 900mhz video memory

droping the video memory clocks also fixed my Ragnarok Online problems, that one is also VERY perticular about videocard issues, i havnt had alot of problems in other programs, just those 2, not even oblivion.

ah but if you do a little work and find out who it is, then confront them about it having talked to the doctor from the commonwealth...you get a nice new plasma rifle ;)
 
anyone knows if there are already any mod released for fallout 3. i heard that there is one that changes the emission of the radio (i dont remember the name but not the enclave one, the other) to pass metallica, ramstein, megadeth and the sort

check out fallout3 nexus site, there are some sound mods there although I don't know if its for the radio, I only tried dialog box, barter box, font mods. and the black colored pipboy, and a camou colored combat armor.
 
All I know is I want my own radio. Would be pretty sweet if you could make one using GECK.

Like the one on GTA San Andreas where you could place your own mp3s for the radio station heheh

Yea that would be cool. I might email bethesda and see if you can do that later.
 
woot we could do a petition for that! hahaha then it'd be great to explore with your own music.. :D

You can change the menu music and explore music. Just look in sounds.

Really!! Rofl didn't know that hahahaha! I was so sucked in to the game that I didn't explore the sound config rofl Thank you :respect:

But I wish you could still make your own radio station heh
 
could you change the sound tracks to any game? like by just finding the folder with the tracks in and changing them

Oblivion and Fallout 3 are the only ones I know how to change the music in. If I can find the radio file for fallout I will make a station :)
 
So meaning by changing putting in your own mp3 on the data\music\explore folder with the same file name as the original file? Uhm should it be the same length or can it be like the 6mins or more? I was planning to replace em with some groove armada sounds :D

Her name is Victoria Watts from the clan/gang "railroad."

You can read more about her and the quest of the android here :

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/The_Replicated_Man


You shouldn't be taking hostility from Rivet City simply for speaking to her, so I would say it's a bug/glitch.

There is no 'fix' that I can think of unfortunatley.

I got figured it out. It was night time and I shouldn't have been there at night. I fixed it by just going back outside really fast and quick jumping to another part of the map. When I went back to Rivet City everything was cool. Thanks anyway!

Take a song, Clayman by In Flames for example. Delete(or backup the MainTitle mp3) and put the song into the folder and rename it MainTitle.
 
Ahh I see thanks shadow :D
 
I got the game but there is something about it that prevents me from getting into it. I haven't played much, I should give it a little more time to see if I like it I guess. As someone else said, I to have too many games and haven't been finishing them all.

Simple enough, thanks for the tip, I'll have to toy around w/ some different instrumentation. I guess your probably limited to the one track huh?
