Fallout 3 Message Board  

ty >< just wot I needed to complete the day

Far Cry 2, Dead Space and now Fallout 3!!!

OMFG this is getting crazy!!!
Well I guess this means I will be out of the office this coming whole week.

Btw, thanks to Caliber and PWizard for the fast trainer release!
Man you guys are GoD!!!

wiz, we can't alt-tab and go back out if we're on vista. it closes down all together.

yep we cnt alt tab back if we are on vista....

I have Vista and I can alt tab out of play.

the only solution for vista users who have the crash and can't get back to the game for the time being is to rename the file:

Fallout3.exe.cat

to something else

(i.e. name it Fallout3.exe.bak)


this will turn of windows LIVE! allowing you to play the game without the crashes until we can work out a viable solution to get around the live for windows problem.

you may have to start a campaign from the beginning if you are not using live!

best,
Cal


alternatively you can install a debugger that launches when programs crash (JIT debugger etc.) which will sometimes allow this or try running the game in a window, etc.

thnx for the help....you guys do an awesome job keep up the great work

I am also unable to continue the game after the trainer is activated, alt tab will not restore the game, crash report menu will not allow the game to continue. I am using Xp sp3 not vista and have followed the info in the readme file enclosed with the trainer.
