having a small problem with game start please help

Post by USMMChris » Thu Jun 21, 2018 4:56 pm

Ok I read the FAQ, and it's a little confusing. I have everything installed correctly, title screen says TTW, game works fine, etc. but it starts me in NV and not in FO3.

I read the relevant section of the FAQ and I'm a little lost. I found the two files that's mentioned, but what exactly do I do for chances to FO.ini and FOprefs.ini. The way that part of the FAQ is worded, the changes listed on the bottom of that section go to a third part and I don't want to screw anything up.


If someone could please just tell me what changes to make to both files I'd appreicate it. I already have backups made of the originials; I just need to know what to change.

Many thanks in advance.

When the game starts it looks to those files to determine the starting quest; the very first quest that the game fires off. You need to change it to the TTW starting quest instead. That's what the change is. It's the reference to the quest script in the main TTW file (or one of them).

I'm venturing a guess that 'live another life' mods do the same thing. They either modify the starting quest directly or reference a custom written script in the ini files.

I figured it out LOL. My apologies. But thanks for the explaination. I'm not running any mod but TTW at this time. I just misunderstood what the FAQ was trying to say.

It's all good now - if a mod or admin wants to delete this entire post go for it. Thanks again.
