Of course, if your using a controller, you may want to leave rumble on. Otherwise you may have massive stutter when you move around. If not, then try to launch the game, and exit out as soon as you have a choice to, and then you will have the files for sure:įor Keyboard/Mouse users, in the Fallout Prefs files, located in my Documents/My Games/Fallout 3, find the following line and make it look like this, Now you should have some ini and Prefs files to work with. After making these and other changes you might want, exit out of the launcher without launching the game. Choose your options, you can change them later, your just giving the game a reason to create the ini files. So you might want to stop that in MSCONFIG Start Up.Īfter installing, launch the game through Steam until you get to the Launcher window where you can choose your Video Options and Data Files. I don't think GFWL even runs during first boot of the game, but it may set itself to launch with Windows. Once it is initialized GFWL does not ever have to run.

The install scripts just want to see this installed. Note, you do not have to create a GFWL account, or even log in.

Get the latest Games for Windows Marketplace Client from the link below and install it (if you bought the game from Steam, that version still requires it). The Games for Windows Live that ships with FO3 is outdated and no longer works. If you choose to, here is how you would move Steam to a folder not controlled by the UAC. If you already have Steam installed in a similar non UAC directory, then you can let Steam install it where it wants. This way, any older games that I get from Steam I can run and not have UAC get all upset. I even have Steam installed C:\Games\Steam. So, for this game, install to C:\Games\Fallout 3 (or similar). You can disable the UAC and other stuff if you want, but that is not recommended. This will eliminate UAC issues on older games, and let you keep your system secure. And then create folders in there to install all your older games to that. It is much better that you create a directory called C:\Games, or similar, that is not controlled by the UAC. This game is best not installed in Program Files or Program Files (x86) under Windows 7/8 unless you disable Windows security. If you have Windows XP, then ignore the install path considerations, just let things happen where you normally put your games. Of course now, here is the wordy explanation so that you understand why these are needed.

Avoid mods until you know the game works after leaving Vault 101. Install the updated Games for Windows Live client (just for initial validation)ģ. Change the install path (not required for XP)Ģ. The tweaks are simple, and can be summed up as followed:ġ. The game also needs some INI tweaks if you have a dual or multi-core processor even if you have XP. Installing and running this game on Windows 7/8 requires some work arounds, as the game was not designed for these new OS's.
