Can't seem to run TTW

[asd]

Hey guys,

Long-time fallout fan, this is actually the first time I'm trying to run TTW.
I installed both FO3/NV from GOG a long time ago (according to GOG-Galaxy, I have NVUE ver 1.4.0.525 and FO3GOTY ver 1.7.0.3).
After installing TTW 3.2 with MO2 and the video guide (without audio decoding cause i didn't want to wait long) I went straight to the second video guide and started installing the other QOL mods, ended up with NVAC, NVSR, JIP LN, ini files (including NVSE config ini HeapAlloc) and BSA (Skipping Vorbis cause BSA and ENB cause my game didn't even boot when I tried it).
Since this is my first time running TTW, i didn't really know what to expect. I ran the game from FalloutNV.exe and got the default NV menu screen. tried loading a save game (later realized that's not gonna work) and obviously that didn't work out. so I started a new game, and was placed at the beginning of NV instead of FO3 (which i read was supposed to be the first quest). I have a major feeling that the game doesn't recognize TTW at all, seeing as there is no difference in the menu screen or the startup quest.
I also didn't see these lines:
SCharGenQuest=001FFFF8
sIntroMovie=
bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1
in any of the ini files, although I've read they should be there by default. tried putting them in Fallout.ini and that didn't really do anything.
Do you have any idea what i've done wrong? Do i have to reinstall everything? If so how should i do that? uninstall all mods, MO2, TTW and then the games themselves?
I'm hopeful that i'd have to do as little uninstalling as i can, because I lack the time to do the whole process all over again :\.

Anyways, thanks a lot for the help!
Also if you feel like recommending any good graphical mods, i'd be happy to hear!

You must not have NVSE or the TTW_NVSE.dll or something -- those ini edits aren't used anymore.

SCharGenQuest isn't done in the ini anymore, the ttw dll does it in code so people can't mess it up in the ini anymore.

bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles isn't needed for TTW itself since the face textures are all generated (but mods might need it)

The ttw_nvse dll is what will be setting the chargenquest. Make sure you don't have old TTW installed, make sure you have NVSE, make sure ttw_nvse is with the TTW files in MO (\nvse\plugins\ttw_nvse.dll)

I'm not sure what you meant by second video, when installing TTW you should only follow the first video. It does everything and there is nothing else needed to do.

Thanks for answering Roy!

I removed the lines from the ini file.
As for the second video - in the TTW download page there are two videos. Left one being an install tutorial, and right one being QOL changes. that is the second video I was talking about.

as for NVSE - I have not installed it manually as I saw in the video that the installer takes care of that.
Looking into the TTW_files (in the MO's folder\mods\Tale of Two Wastelands\nvse\plugins) I do see the ttw_nvse.dll file.
Seems that the only plausable explenation is that I don't have NVSE - but as I mentioned above, shouldn't the installer take care of that?

one additional thing - when trying to run the game from MO by pressing the "Run" button, i get "Launching <game path> failed 740.

Any idea?

Thanks again for the help!

jip_nvse.dll should also be there, and NVSE should be installed yes, as well as FalloutCustom.ini copied into a profile you create in MO2 (don't use the default).

Did you run the default launchers first ?

Did you run the installer as admin?

Hey -

So i uninstalled NV (and deleted the folder).
uninstalled all mods including TTW from MO2 and deleted the original instance folder
verified to and fixed all of FO3's files through gog galaxy
downloaded and installed NV cleanly
re-created the instance folder
installed TTW with the long install this time (including sound fixing).
ttw_nvse and jip_nvse (dlls) are both there.

At first I ran the game (using falloutnv.exe) before editing FalloutCustom.ini and gotten the NV intro screen so i quit and copied the ini as shown in the video guide.
I then relaunched the game (falloutnv.exe) and got the same intro screen. opening a new character started an NV campaign.

Finally, I ran the game through MO's "Run" button and gotten the TTW intro screen and the game!

I hope this helps with debugging and fixing w/e was stopping me from playing TTW for other players, or maybe fixing the guides to be more indicative to the way the game should be started.

Anyways, thanks a lot for the help!

Launch it via Nvse_loader.exe

nvse_loader.exe is not needed
