Random CTDing Fallout 3 and ironsight problems

Could be 5 minutes, or 30 minutes to 2 hours before a ctd.

 

I use razer gamebooster, 3gb enabler and fake full screen along with NMC lite and project reality.

TBH, I'm guessing its likely to do with RH ironsights, but I want to make sure.

 

Does ANYONE see any kind of conflict here?

I hear a tale of 2 wastelands increases stability.

Make a bashed patch to reduce you load order by about 10. Yeah, load order size increases CTD chance

Get freeRAM XP Pro or cleanmem or both.

Bettergameperformance.esp should be at the bottom of your load order. Run a BOSS test run and check your load order against it. I see a few esps that could be moved around for a performance boost along with less compatibility issues.

 

That should stop most of your CTD but not all of them. Kinda hard to stop it all once you add a mod.

Damn, thanks for pointing that better gaming performance out mate.  Could be causing an issue.. didn't notice it.

 

My framerate etc is all quite stable though indoors and outdoors, not sure what its like during rain yet though as it has not rained on me yet, but do you think its a vram issue?  I've never had any issues with NMC before on NV or Fallout 3 until my recent reinstall.

 

Can you write up a small guide to installing Wyrebash for Fallout 3 please?  I've tried it in the past but could never figure out how to get the application to load.

 

I'm trying to not use BOSS at the moment on this load order as most of the mods are not recognised by BOSS and running it does cause a huge mess trust me on that

 

But could you let me know which plugins I could move around?  would really appreciate.  I have also noticed that some of my ironsights are not working but I think I know the cause.. some texture weapon mod but its not a game breaker for me as once I put a WMK on it the texture stays and the ironsights return.

do you think this could be a cause of a crash though?

 

edit:  nvm, not texture causing the issue as the assault rifle and chinese assaultguns without any weapon mods do show ironsights when the gun is firing, but show the default fallout 3 zoom when zoomed in..

 

any idea what the issue could be?

 

edit:  this clipping occurs when I fire the regular assault rifle.

 

 

 

as you can see the butt end of the rifle seems to have camera clipping into it.. not gamebreaking but immersion breaking, kinda ruins using a regular assault rifle for me
