Why isnt broken steel working

Ask for help here if you can't find an answer in the FAQ. First I had the usual custom race problem, where I would just go back to the rotunda and be stuck. However I changed the race, also tried the fixes for this, and I no longer have this problem of getting stuck, but I get New Vegas ending credits instead and the game just ends. Does anybody else have a similar problem? Halfgod , 5 May UTC. Well, it dosen't seem likely, but i'll test it later anyway. I have afew characters aside for reasons for testing certain things.

I'm almost wholly certain that this is not a possible bug without the player's intervention via the console. I say this because if I remember correctly Puppies! If true, that means there is no script to generate a second Dogmeat from the same baseID, with a new refID , making the glitch incapable of occurring "naturally". May 5th, - A bug after the download of Fallout 3: Broken Steel is if you have not completed the american dream, you may freeze within 5 feet of elder lyons and be unable to talk or move The quest does not continue, and elder lyons does not speak.

Also the fix that they posted about talking to elder lions and telling him youre not ready then going to the courtyard, returning, then saying you are won't work if you can't talk to him in the first place.

I've tried to fix this many times and I still can't play the DLC to my liking because of this horrible glitch. Does a patch need to come out to fix this or do you have to delete the DLC redownload it and do something else? Does this happen to anyone else? Ive been having the game not give me my xp and i just get booted with the ending before the dlc was released im playing on xbox This is how I fixed it, and it works beautifully now.

Copy the most recent save from the GFWL file to the generic save game folder. Load the save game that you just copied, then sign in GFWL. Save the game. I loaded an older game, and the same thing happened. I loaded a third game which wouldn't let me shoot or reload Yay for glitches that don't allow you to play! Did you make sure you restarted your ?

It sounds like the old bug when your game seems to gain a mind of it's own and refuses to comply with controller commands. It would shoot and do weird things by it's self. Yeah, a similar thing happened to me once. I was bored, so I tried out using a console command cheat to get a Vertibird machine gun Don't worry, I save before I cheat, I'm not a cheater , and after firing it and trying it out it sucked , I loaded my previous game.

I was fine until pulled out my Ol' Painless, and then all of a sudden I started shooting constantly. When I holstered the weapon, it would come out again and start shooting. Can't remember how I fixed it, but I'd say it just fixed itself when I restarted my computer. Both of my followers have disappeared. I told dogmeat to stay at my house in megaton and I brought Charon with me to Project Purity, and have both gone after i activated it. I checked back at my house for Dogmeat, at underworld for Charon and they're not there.

Any ideas what could of happened to them? Try outside Vault If he's not there, it's most likely he's gone. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have a look. When I was doing that quest I got a message saying dogmeat died after leaving him at my megaton house for no apparent reason and I cant find his body, its simular to another glitch.

Maybe you just missed the message. Hey I didn't download the Broken Steel yet but I read the bugs In the minor glitches I came across the irradiated water bug. So here's what I'm thinkin. Maybe the rivers connected to the Project Purity maybe no longer be irradiated. There's no way Project Purity can reach those waters, so maybe they remain irradiated?

Fallout-dude , 7 May UTC. As i recall, the elder said the water in the "Basin" was only affected. So yes, they couldn't of reached every single water source in the wasteland. Broken Steel have just returned to the G4WL markedplace! Is anyone having a problem with this after they downloaded it?

I can't crouch anymore standing in one spot. This is quite annoying if you ask me. Also does your companion return to their spot like they are fired if you go into project purity?

I can't seem to find Charon and hes has a bunch of my goodies. Reflect , 8 May UTC. I had the same problem with Jericho if I'm thinking straight. After returning to The Citadel in the Vetibird, I noticed that Fawkes whom I had waiting in my house with some of my other companions RL-3 and Star Paladin Cross if it makes any difference I took out my fat man and fired many times at Fawkes.

Fawkes survived hit after hit and his health bar never went down, he still turned hostile though. I fired my fat man at Charon and he died instantly, so it can't be I'm dealing no damage.

Eventualy I fast traveled to my house to get my MIRV to see if that would kill Fawkes, seeing as it kills everything in one hit, but not even that depleted Fawkes heath at all, so I guess my Fawkes must be indestructible He wasn't before I did broken steel as I often kill my companions then reload saves later. Xbox -- I've encountered this too, though I've seen him lose 1 bar of health fighting a Behemoth, he didn't lose any after that, despite being bashed repeatedly by the big beastie.

Same here. After getting bored I triggered a bunch of car explosions. Me, Cross, and Dogmeat all died. I was amazed Fawkes lived.

So I did a "getav health" on him after a load. The results? At level 22 he had HP. A level 28 character shows him at having HP. EDIT: Correction, its not the virus choice that allows my character to spawn, its asking Sarah Lyons to press the switch for me; I also tried toggle free camera as well as killing my character followed by resurrection as well as setting my character as essential followed by killing and then resurrecting all to no avail You must be able to control your character while doing this steps, otherwise you'll be permanently stuck under the bed in citadel.

If number is not correct, there will be an error in your console. If there isn't any error - try speaking with Lyons then. Do so until Elder Lyons will speak to you and start quest. That's all, you'll be able to continue gameplay without any stucking or freezing things. The only thing you gonna miss is the animation in Project Purify chamber and ending, but you always can watch this and load the game after. Note: if you can't localize your companion, try command: 'player.

If you're stuck beneath textures, type 'coc locationid' again. Fallout Wiki Explore. Fallout games. How do I download it? Pablo View Profile View Posts. Originally posted by nj.
