It’s a little odd that Fallout 3 would ban GFWL at this very late point, although Microsoft’s somewhat unrelatively-new ownership of Bethesda, as Shaun stated last week, may have had a direct impact on it.
It doesn’t include any copyrighted files, so you’ll need a legitimate copy of Fallout 3 to use it, and it shouldn’t be used to install Tale of Two Wastelands 3.2 instead. Once it’s installed, you’ll be able to boot the game on any Steam or GOG device, the launcher, or any mod manager, but if you want FOSE to auto-load, you’ll need to do it directly with the Fallout3.exe, so you’ll want to create a shortcut. The patch will work with Fallout 3’s standard and Game of the Year editions on Steam or GOG. It also loads FOSE when Fallout 3 is started (if it’s installed) and allows the game to use 4GB of RAM: Some older Bethesda games, such as Fallout 3, have a 2GB limit on RAM usage, and patching that up to 4GB can have a positive impact on performance. That’s a big problem, which is compounded by the fact that the creators “did not have a date for when FOSE may be upgraded to this new version” of the game.Įnter the Fallout Anniversary Patcher by mod maker lStewieAl, which restores FOSE functionality by converting Fallout 3 to the pre-update version 1.7.0.3 while maintaining the removal of Games for Windows Live dependences. But as it is so often the method of things, freedom came at a price, particularly that the Fallout Script Extender (FOSE) doesn’t function, and that all of the mods that rely on it have been left out. The Fallout Anniversary Patcher has reverted the game to its previous version, without giving up any of the benefits of the new update.įallout 3 was finally released from the last week’s plight of Games for Windows Live.
