Fallout 3 Message Board  

Thx

made a change to the trainer, removed an option and added another. please re-download.

also, please understand that these "Games for Windows Live!" titles are extremely difficult to work with and are designed to prevent trainers and other programs from working. we are doing our best to bypass it, but ultimately the best solution may be to just disable it if you want to use the functions of the trainer. we will continue looking into it more.

I really don't like the Windows Live cr**, and i haven't gotten my Fallout 3 game yet, that's why this question may seem dumb, but can you still save the game when you have renamed the file like caliber said in a previous post or is the saving hooked into windows live?

thanks wizard and caliber. testing it out now. really hope it will work with LIVE enabled perfectly for me.

Also for people with vista having a problem with Alt-Tab. do CTRL+ALT+DEL and click on open task manager. that will force fallout to minimize 95% of the time you'll be able to go back into fallout without any problems. been working for me

*EDIT*

@FoolzRailer: saving is done on the hard drive but once you disable live you'll have to start over to my understanding.

I will confirm if you turn live off by renaming file you WILL have to start a new game.

forcing a minimize isn't helping either, all it does is move the crash to the background. you can not go past the 'click here to close' dialog box and get back into the game.

now, ALL old saves are crashing on load, trainer activated or not. It started doing that after I renamed the .cat file then named it back to let Live work. Trying to just uninstall/reinstall FO3, keeping my old saves, maybe it'll let me play, it's either that or I disable windows live and just use the trainer, hopefully.

i saved many many times during this process and had no problems with my save games after turning on and off live..

best,
