...
FO3 is still one of my favorite games. I like it better than NV TBH.
very true - i enjoyed nv, but i found the story a bit confusing, and it lacked a certain imaginative magic compared to 3.
Wanders is a very good mod. It really changes alot and makes it a bit harder.
All for the better I think.
i'm just getting used to the changes...like having to eat, drink and sleep regularly.
What my Mod setup is for FO3, if interested:
Wanders Edition
Marts Mutant Mod
Project Beauty
Weapon Mod Kits
Fellout with Fallout Street Lights
I also use NMC retexture pack, with a few other re-texs and Exnems Body Mod.
thanks for mentioning street lights - works really well with fellout.
i'm also using ewe - energy weapons enhanced and enhanced weather, and gnr - more where that came from to extend 3-dog's playlist.
I would suggest looking into FOIP as well, especially if using other Mods with FWE.
Fallout Interoperability Program - FOIP at Fallout 3 Nexus - Fallout 3 mods and community
Basically just patches so all the all work together nicely.
Regardless what you choose, it will be helpful for the FWE and MMM combo you've chosen.
haven't checked out FOIP yet - all the mods seem to work together already.
Ah, and remember not to insatll all the extra plugins for Marts. Its all included in FWE from in game menus.
Since you're using FWE, you Obviously have FOSE. You may want to check into the stutter remover plug in. It helps with some of the stutter but also solved the occasions crash message on Exit for me. (I just change the FPS Min and MAX to 0 so it doesnt try to mess with FPS)
stutter removal didn't work for me - after trying a few other 'fixes', i eventually used the MADfilter to cure radio stutter.
AS far as DLC, Broken Steel is probably the biggest one. As it increses lvl Cap to 30 and continues the story where the original game left off.
The rest you can play at any point through the game you want to, once you find them.
