TTW Refuses to Work

Post by Sulfuras26 » Thu May 26, 2022 10:03 pm

Hey guys,

I am writing this post after significant attempts of trying to get the newest version of this mod to work. I had almost always used 3.2, and after a long period of time in which I did not come back to playing TTW, I returned very recently to reinstall everything and start a full, modded playthrough of the mod. To my disappointment, however, I have now attempted to install this mod around five times or so, including a full PC reset (deleting all files, clean restart) and each time has resulted in some new issue completely preventing me from playing the game.

Now, after an entirely clean PC reset, one failed install (in which I did not follow all instructions), followed by ANOTHER install (in which I followed all instructions religiously), the mod still refuses to load in. I get stuck right before the main menu emerges (meaning before the "Tale of Two Wastelands" logo pops in in front of the lone wanderer in front of New Vegas), with the game pausing for about ~12 seconds or so then completely crashing. Seeing as how I followed all steps, including the correct mod organizer steps (instance creating, correct file paths, nexus-linking, all that), I am at a total loss. On top of that, I deleted all Onedrive files associated with FNV and FO3 alongside the proper .ini's for a completely, totally clean TTW install.

The only mods I used here were the essentials. NVSE, JIP LN, and the 4GB Patcher. Currently, I have absolutely no idea what is going on with the mod -- I have tried multiple workarounds, such as testing the game through the testing instances to no avail, alongside placing all the TTW installed files found in the mod organizer 2 file directory inside the Data directory of FNV (which ended up working partially, got to menu screen and loaded into save but could not start new game). I tried troubleshooting, but no one seems to be having this issue. I tried resetting my computer ENTIRELY, but it still seems to be unplayable.

If my issue cannot be fixed, then I think getting the version of TTW that installed in the data directory would help (version 3.2 I believe). If there is any place on the site in which I can download the older version that I am more familiar with, that would be a lifesaver.

Thanks for any help! :D

Check your antivirus, firewall, and antimalware programs. Some protection software can interfere with files needed to run TTW, xNVSE or even the game itself.

Just a couple of days someone had the same problem and found out that their antivirus was blocking the "nvse_steam_loader.dll", which is needed to run xNVSE and by extension TTW properly:
