I start a new game, and I'm in a dark room? Nothing happens...

[Radioaxive]

So... It's been a while since I last played TTW and I know a lot has changed. I've spent most of the day trying to get it to work, and I'm like 99% there. However, I'm running into a bit of an issue...

Everytime I start a game, I'm in a tiny 2 walled room (that's nothing but darkness) and nothing happens.

I think this is suppose to be when I choose whether to start play in DC or the Mojave, but nothing happens and I'm not sure why.

I have no other mods installed, except for DarnUI, MCM, NVAC, JIP and Lutana. (and UIO... otherwise MCM and DarnUI would be giving me issues.)

Oh, and NVSR. (Though, I'm sure it's not causing the issue. I'm pretty sure none of those mods are causing the issue, but I don't actually know.)

TECHNICAL INFO: Windows 10, i7-4770K, 16GB ram

MOD MANAGER: Mod Organizer, ver. 1.3.11

I think it has something to do with the StartUpMenu.esp but whenever I uncheck it, I start in Mojave... which is kind of counter productive, and all, in my opinion.

If you're starting in New Vegas on a new game then something is preventing the TTW ini changes or altering it completely.

Make sure your ini files contain the TTW changes mentioned in our FAQ:

https://taleoftwowastelands.com/content/faq#startnewvegas

If for any reason the ini changes are still there and you still start in New vegas, or you just want to use the TTW Startup Menu optional, make sure you are using the latest version which can be found here:

Hope this helps and you can enjoy TTW soon

Thank you Rise. I had the ini files set up, but I'm not sure how, but my Falloutnv.ini needed to be redone because it was reset, even though I wasn't using the Launcher. So, I went and changed my FalloutPrefs.ini.

As for the StartMenu, I didn't realize that the one that came with TTW was outdated. Don't want to be rude, but that should be fixed. Eitherway, the updated one works and now I can at least start a game in DC either through a new game or with New Game + StartupMenu.esp.

No worries, I don't think it was rude of you .

It is outdated in the TTW one because a big TTW update has been in the worls for almost an year now IIRC, but there is always some issue poping up with the new things we made for the next update, and we always fix the stuff , no point in releasing an update that will make TTW have more bugs and problems than the previous one.

Also we are updating the installer and that requires a programmer, our awesome programmer Scorpion, had some busy RL problems and so she hasn't been around for a while (half an year or close to that). We couldn't really update the installer. But don't despair, Niveus Everto came to the rescue, by volunteering to check the instaler out and work on it .

And for last, we have a section in the alpha download where we post the TTW hotfixes (mini patches) we develop before we release a new version. I recommend to check it out from time to time just to make sure you're updated:

Anyway, I am glad you can play now. Hope you have fun .

It's here right?

I think that person is trying to access the FAQ from 5 years ago. Which doesn't exist anymore because it was for the older version of TTW .

[Colonel_Campbell007]

I see. Well, perhaps the new FAQ will him get up to speed.
